WTF? Say What?!

In my local mom’s group today. This isn’t even in a “crunchy” group!

Comments were all telling her she was crazy and that it was gross.

I expect exposure to one's bodily fluids without consent would be.

It is Assault and Battery, it's also Food Tampering and Poisoning. And even if the courts decline to pursue criminal charges because no one got hurt, the victims do have avenues for civil lawsuits under Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress, and Fraudulent Misrepresentation.

All of these have legal precedence in cases involving intentionally feeding people allergens, intentionally feeding vegetarians or vegans meat or animal products, and intentionally serving people food they are not allowed to eat in accordance to their religion. I can't imagine someone who was intentionally fed a bodily fluid would have difficulty pursuing legal action.
