Hmmmm, well since he has seen a doctor, is in good spirits and is on fever reducing meds (though I as a parent really prefer to limit the meds especially in the case of a low grade fever) and since he will nap in the pm, I think I would work with the Mom and take him for the afternoon. Of course what happens if the fever is still there the next day? Have you now opened the door to allowing dcb to come with low grade fevers now? To answer my own question, IMO, I would take him for the afternoon and then state if fever remains the next day, he should still stay home. Have I confused things? LOL
