Why are our children taught to sneeze into their hands? |
|
Is that not one of the only parts of their bodies that they use to touch every thing else?

I have managed to teach a lot of kids to 'wash their paws' as soon as they get in from school, stores, public places. Can't get Havocdad to do it though :grr:

They're taught in school to sneeze and cough into the crook of their elbow.

9. You should sneeze and cough into your elbow |
|
Almost no one ever touches you on the inside of your elbow, unless you are being escorted away by the gestapo. IN that case, just hope for maximum comunicability.
