Is it irresponsible to take a child with chicken pox out?

[thatsnotmymonster]

DS (3) has just come out in a few spots. 2 others from nursery are also off with chicken pox. He is not going and is missing his Christmas Fayre today.

I have 2 other younger children at home and a million things to do (I have no food in and need to go to the supermarket for a start).

Would you go?

SGB - it's really not that difficult. Chickenpox or other illnesses where medical advice is to stay in - do what you are told.

Coughs and colds - use a tissue and don't sneeze or cough over anyone else.

Now, see how simple that is?

dh wasnt allowed on public transprt for a year after transplant to avoid infections. he also gets fast tracked at GP surgery to avoid being in a place with lots of gersm, or if thats not possible then sits in the seperate area to other patients. he generally trakes care to avoid istuation which places himself in danger of infection. going shopping shouldnt be one of those situations.
