Seriously. When we lived in Houston ooooooooh so long ago, us kids would go swimming in the water treatment plant. We'd all come home with our poo-staches and our mom would freak! We also always had pets and spent most of our leisure time outside, in the dirt, playing with creepy crawlies and the like. I missed maybe 3 days of school in my life. I think it's because of our exposure to all kinds of germs.
