[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So my kids, 1st and 3rd grade, and I get lice at least once a year because they county "can't" do anything about it. I don't understand and it is making me furious! The aftercare does an awesome job of checking for lice and sending kids home, but it is way beyond their control, as they can't check every kid in the school or try to decontaminate the classrooms.  This is a basic hygiene issue for me so I don't quite get what the issue is - ie there are bugs at the school, solve the problem as a pre-school would (not hygiene in the showering/dirty sense) Kids/I miss at least 3 days of work/school a year for something that is solvable. The current situation is that only the aftercare kids get checked/sent home on a regular basis, but the cycle continues b/c there is no policy about dealing with the rest of the school population.

I am about to lose my shit on this because it is so inane.[/quote]

Why on earth do your kids miss 3 days of school for lice??

Just comb their hair out.   That doesn't take three days.

Who is telling you to keep them home?[/quote]
