What do others consider this . Would you say it's throwing up or spitting up?
Of course dcm says it's spitting up so she won't have to come to pick up the child.
I would say throwing up if it's solid food. If it happens daily and you know its not an illness, that's a tough one. If the child just recently started doing it, and has been on solids for awhile, that's a little more suspicious.
But, either way, throw up is gross and unsanitary in a daycare setting.
I would recommend they go to the doctor.
