A few months ago I posted about the dangers of sharing food and teaching the boy to NOT share food. Myself, my husband, and his teachers have all been instrumental in teaching him to not share food. My husband took him to a swimming class the other day, after the class he asked the boy for a cookie from his snack container, and the response was “no share food!”
This is one of my proudest moments as a parent of an allergic child!

No Sharing!
I’m on a 100% no sharing policy!
Since the boy was born I have been involved in different music groups, playgroups, gym classes etc… The moms always bring their toddlers snacks and sometimes these snacks get shared or grabbed by the other kids. Most of the moms are allergy aware and would never bring a nutty snack. Despite this I am still the mother running around ensuring my child does not take food from any of the other kids, eat off the floor or grab someone's snack, just in case. On the same note, I recognize people mean well by offering to share their child's snacks when another toddler seems interested in it, but in my opinion people should never feed other people's kids without permission. Sharing is caring, but with an allergy sharing is not so caring.
How do you handle these situations?
