My daughter is in 1st grade a small town school K-8 grades, and another child has that is in the 8th grade. Both kids are very aware of each other, and both culture different things. The school teachers, nurse, and even the ladies in the front office are very dilligent to keep them separate, so I know they're looking out for both of them. I would hope that the other mother would give the school permission for them to see each other and recognize each other. I completely understand your worry and concern, b/c I think I would be the same way. It would concern me b/c the mother isn't very educated on CF, which means that chances are, the daughter may not be either. My initial thought is that you don't want them sharing desks, or using the same art supplies or anything like that. Unfortunately, besides being a worry wart, I'm germaphobic also. I feel bad admitting to it, but i probably would end up being one of those people to swtich schools. Being that the other child has cultured a couple different things, and being in not-so-good health, that would make me worry more. Sorry if it comes across like i would overreact, but I'm just being honest.
Tracey, mom to Sydney 7 and Seth 3 (both w/cf df508)
