Little kids nowadays are pampered by their parents. They buy them all sorts of toys and videogames so they don't get dirty. The downside with this is that, as they never played with dirt during childhood, they don't acquire the natural defenses required for survival in the wild. Their immunological system hasn't been allowed to develop, so they end up with all sorts of stupid alergies like this one. A dirty child is a healthy child.

76- So people with allergies to peanuts just weren't exposed to enough peanuts as a child? And people who are allergic to latex, their parents are terrible parents because they didn't expose their child to gloves or condoms? What great logic you have.

76 - What you're babbling about - dirty children having more defense against diseases is somewhat true. BUT, it does NOT apply to allergies and too much exposure to the wrong thing can cause death. Do you really want to expose your kid to smallpox thinking, just like with chickenpox, they'll supposedly come out of it immune? No, your child will be dead. Use your head.
