To peanut butter, or not to peanut butter?

I was talking with my gfs lately about the ever growing idea in society of "MY RIGHTS".

My human rights to do whatever I want, to say whatever I want, to believe whatever I want, to protect my own interests beyond anyone else around me, because I have a right to protect my right because I am right and you're not right but only I can be right. Right?

Let's face it. This shit has gone over board. 

This trend is basically, surely but slowly, eliminating any ounce of personal responsibility that a person may have. 

Not only for their own actions, 

but how they treat and care for others around them. 

It is basically feeding into this ME and LOOK OUT FOR ME, selfish society. 

I'm going to take this time to talk about my personal beef. I do not like to beef on this supposedly light hearted, though non-vegan,  random info blog of mine, but today I will. 

It is a fact, for some reason (possibly the growing toxins we put in and on our foods and environment - just guessing), there is an increase in children who have allergies. 

This isnt even simple ragweed-sniffles-and-rashes-kind-of-allergies. 

This is anaphylactic - your precious child can freakin DIE kinda allergies. 

So because of this, in many schools they have been informing parents to not send their children to school with any peanut snacks or peanut butter. 

Of course, because peanuts apparently are some sort of desperate necessity for some children's culinary upbringing - this has some parents screaming about their child's RIGHTS. (see, another form of the "MY RIGHTs syndrome"). 

I've read comments from supposedly, liberal, open-minded, accepting-everyones-differences, modern, "educated" parents about how their kids should not SUFFER because of some other kid's allergies. 

Yes. That is right. Their kids are SUFFERING without peanut butter at school. (has nothing to do with at home btw). They are falling over, shaking at their desks and in the playground, starving in the corners of their classrooms, unable to learn, to laugh, to play, to move, to eat, because they are SUFFERING from this lack of peanut butter. 

This anaphylactic allergy is not a preference, btw. Its not a religious choice, it is not a  decision a kid comes to realize at a certain age and a choice they happened upon. They are born with it. And cannot change it. It is a proven physical health condition. A potential medical emergency. 

These kids of course are educated about their allergy, informed and learn to take precautions at an early age. This is their parents responsibility when the kids are young and learned by the kids themselves. They are full aware of it. 

But what happens when the kids are still learning? When they are so very young? What safety precautions are there when they are away from their parents and still so tiny?

This basically means, if your kid, in kindergarden, who is too small to understand anything yet, gets peanut butter on her hands and shares cookies or touches the table of her class mate that has this allergy, and that class mate happens to put this contamination in their mouths. The child can DIE. Even if they have an epi-pen and are technically mature in dexterity to administer it themselves or have the time and non closed up vocal cords to tell their teacher who administers the epi- pen. They can still have a chance of death. 

But no, no, lets mind the RIGHTS of those kids that need peanut butter at school. They are practically dying for the taste of it at school. Right?

So the answer to my question above: NOT TO. Jerk.
