I really did think I was doing the right thing, carrying Purell or bargain hand sanitizer with me all the time. I made all kids, mine or not, clean their hands with it if there was no soap available.
Our friends at EWG tell me this is a mistake. I need to use specific brands--I shouldn't be surprised. The major brands are accused of causing cancer, developmental toxicity and more. The major brand is rated a 7 out of 10--10 being the worst!
Fortunately, I found bodysense.com. They only sell EWG "approved" products. YEA!
I will still let kids use other kinds at school, but atleast I know I'm carrying and providing a safer choice.
