I am bringing this up as a reminder for those who love hand sanitizer.  I know how you feel I am a germaphobe.

But do not buy hand sanitizer for your child.  It has a high content of alcohol in it and can kill your child if it is digested by accident. 

I hope this gets passed along people need to know.  I wrote a letter to the scholl here to ban it and they did.  It is no longer allowed in the schools here because of how dangerous it is.   I know you are saying your child knows not to eat it but if they lick their hand to try to get something off it they can go to the hospital and there is a high danger of smaller kids in the school getting it.  SO for every one's protection please do not let your child take it to school if you still buy it and watch your child.

Are you also ani-vaccine because they have a chance of dying from that as well? What about the household cleaners in your house? What about the chemicals in your food?

I am not trying to be rude at all. I just find it interesting that you would target this out of so many other things that are equally or possibly more dangerous.

No I vaccinate.  I am very careful with my son who has seizures and I used to be an ER nurse it does happen the alcohol in it is dangerous for small bodies.
