It's no joke.
My issue here isn't with the fact that these kids have conditions/allergies, it is that literally hundreds and sometimes thousands of other people have to change perfectly normal habits and be inconvenienced to make one kid comfortable.

It'd be like banning peanuts at the dome because someone might have an allergy. If you have an unfortunate allergy you're just going to have to deal with it. If society has to make an occasional change to suit them then fine, but to change culture based on one person seems rediculous.
