[quote=Anonymous][quote]Head lice are not a health hazard or a sign of poor hygiene and, in contrast to body lice, are not responsible for the spread of any disease. No healthy child should be excluded from or miss school because of head lice, and [b]no-nit policies for return to school should be abandoned[/b]. - See more at: http://www.aap.org/en-us/about-the-aap/aap-press-room/Pages/AAP-Offers-Updated-Guidance-on-Treating-Head-Lice.aspx#sthash.2OkajFX2.dpuf[/quote] Lice seems like a big deal, but I assure you it isn't. You don't have to pay for a lice remediation service, you don't have to sanitize your entire house, and by the time your kid has lice crawling around in their hair, they've already passed it on to their classmates. If a kid gets lice, they get sent home for that day, and treated. that's it. no need for further policies. [/quote]
