The recent story of the young peanut-allergic girl in Florida being harassed and bullied by the parents, yes parents, of her fellow classmates just breaks my heart. I feel for the family and the child whom I can only imagine, having a food allergic son myself, already struggles with feelings of being "different". Food allergies are not something any child, or anyone for that matter, asks for. These "parents" should be ASHAMED of themselves!
I know that many of you are outraged, as am I, and want to reach out to this family in any way possible so I am sharing this post from The Allergic Kid blog in which you will find an update on the story, the appropriate contact information for voicing your opinions as well as a request from the girls mom. Please also feel free to leave any sort of words of encouragement for the family in the comment section below or on our facebook page for them to see. I know that your kind words are very much appreciated!
