It's funny everyone wants to play the blame game. Like if you somehow trace it to the first person that was sick and blame them for the sickness going around it makes everything better?
Do your best. Wash your hands. Teach your kids to wash their hands, cover their cough/sneeze and do your best to minimize it. But the "OMG it's her fault I'm sick" game is stupid.
This.
The only time it bothers me is when I see parents taking their sick kids to public places. One of my dck has viral pink eye and was excluded from Daycare. Dcm took him to the park every DAY until he was able to return to daycare
