That's like saying she could die because at any point, we can enter a phase shift.

No. If there's one thing we're beaten over the head with in this book, it's that the daughter has a good head on her shoulders and is fully aware of her own allergy. And if she wasn't taught to look out for allergens, especially on packaged food (which even Tara and Thomas admit is properly labeled), then Tara is a bad mother and the child needs to raise by someone who teaches her that important life lesson.

I'm not fond of blaming children, but this was a mistake on the daughter's part. I took care of my cousin over the summers, and he was very attentive about looking at the packages to see if peanuts or tree nuts were on it. Not only was he 6, but he wasn't the brightest bulb in the box.

That's life. And Tara is a bad mother for shielding her daughter from that. Or the daughter's a total idiot.
