Allergic reactions

[Guest guest]

I have a theory that if the kids now-a-days had to work like I did, there

wouldn't be as many of problems. They would too damn tired to get into

trouble!! - Effie Humburg

 

We're a dying breed Effie. My kids' public school is talking about bringing in

the Renzulli (spelling?) method of teaching. The method states that all kids

excel in all subjects at different times in different areas. I think that's the

'no duh' category isn't it??? I KNEW that because that was a given when I was

growing up. Too many kids today have a lot of book sense and no common sense.

Translates into not understanding the concept of hard work is priceless.

Parents working so damn hard to get out of the laboring jobs that they've

forgotten to pass on the value learned there. So few people can appreciate true

hard work anymore. Sometimes the blessings of modern America can be a curse

too.

 

Anyway, I have another question. Straight EOs should never be used on a person,

right? I think I understand correctly when I say that jojoba oil is a good oil

for minimizing allergic reactions (just from the carrier). Would an allergic

reaction to an EO in a carrier oil applied topically appear the same as any

other allergic reaction to anything? I.E. among the symptoms could be hives,

rash, itching OR is there anything specific and particular to EOs?

 

Being new to this if I've phrased this question in a way that doesn't make sense

please feel free to tell me so. I've got a thick hide and know the value of

shutting up and opening my ears to the answers.

 

Thanks in advance
