I'm constently battling this with kids also. I get the there are germs/runny noses and such but the parents need to help us teach the kids what to do. I think my learned when I had to take the three days of straight last month. I think it opened their eyes about no sickness at childcare and no drooling, sneezing, coughing, etc. I found out that two of the families were very sick over spring break.
It was toward the end of lunch and they weren't eating much anyway so I just tossed the rest (Goodbye mango and avocado and organic chicken-ugh) and lunch was over. I wasnt going to serve them a new lunch just so they could not eat in again.
I am just so over all of the sickness. Ugh!
