Etiquette in Action
Dear Elise,
I am truly a “live and let live” sort of person and I don’t even really care if my kids do stuff at their friends’ houses that I wouldn’t let them do at home (this is mostly things like eating exclusively junk food and watching noneducational TV). But my four-year-old daughter has a friend at school whose family refuses all vaccinations. They somehow got some sort of religious dispensation. I am concerned because my little girl gets sick a lot and I worry that she is vulnerable to those scary childhood diseases. I also don’t like the fact that this other kid’s parents are piggybacking off of her immunity. Is there any way I can explain to them that I don’t want my kid to play with theirs?
—Compromised
Dear Compromised,
The chances of your daughter contracting anything are slim. Besides, she is already exposed to this other child in the classroom anyway. But you have some choices. Talk to your pediatrician about your daughter’s health and see what she says about your child’s immune system. Your daughter’s friend’s family has made a controversial decision and chances are they have lost friends to their choice. If you want to withdraw, gently find schedule conflicts when there is a bid to make plans. If you can, compromise with your anxiety, so that the friendship can persist, and have your daughter wash her hands frequently when she’s on these playdates.
