I require a diagnosis because I feel it IS my business what the child may be exposing or has already exposed myself and my group to.
I also think given the opportunity, "most" parents would not be entirely truthful as to what (illness) their child has if it means additional exclusion time. Strep, Influenza and/or a 101F fever suddenly becomes
"nothing but a virus" or worse...
"just teething".
Kinda sad that we can't trust parents but it is what it is.
