You know what? It's not my responsibility to deal with YOUR kids'
allergies. it's your responsibility. Why should I have to pay for your
kids' problems? Hmmmm, I don't.

Fact is, no one ever heard of peanut allergies when I was in grade school.
And they still gave out peanut packets on planes. Take some personal
responsibility fer cryin' out loud. Everything is NOT everyone elses'
fault. Sheesh, you have some nerve to blame me for whatever your kids are
dealing with. Wanker.
