funny thing is, this Mom is Mother of two, one is 4 and then the baby. I have learned in this job, there are MANY dif kind of people in this world. I first and foremost remind parents when things like this arise, that I not only am concerned for the wellness of their child and all the others in care, attempting to keep contagious illness from spreading and such, but I also have a ton of liability on my shoulders, I have only seem a rash like this once before and it was on my own child...was an allergy to pennecillin and I was told rushing her to the ER was smart, she had about 5 more minutes befoer her throat was to close up completely. I don't mess with any unnatural occurance with these kids, they are not mine and I take that very seriously. In this job ,i have found, it's best to have a "worst case scenario" type attitude, It can protect you in the end. I don't allow rashes for many reasons....and find it a little frustrating to have a parent question my reasoning.
