Re: Schools and handwashing
Hell, here's a terrifying true story. In my elementary school, we were NOT ALLOWED TO WASH OUR HANDS BEFORE LUNCH!!! My Emetophobia wasn't nearly as bad when I was a little one, but I also look back thinking how I could've ever done that! My afterschool daycare program (bus took about 50 kids from 4 schools to an afterschool daycare center) watched everyone wash their hands once they arrived (right before play time), before snack time (right after play time), and a third time after snack if you had food on you or it was the monthly cooking day (kids make food, mostly cookies). I'm actually going back there to work for them (community service hours give you these special credits) in a year or two, and staying until I graduate and head off to college. My elementary school and my afterschool daycare were complete opposites. And, although it doesn't have much to do with it, in 6 years of school I saw v usually more than once a year where at the afterschool center I never saw v (or even n besides "my tummy hurts from running.)" All you can really do is keep reminding your kid to wash his hands the right way every time before eating. The school may not care much about kids being clean, but at least they do let the kids wash hands before eating, so your son just needs to wash up really well every time. I should also point out that I caught 1 sv my whole time in elementary school.
