[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Roughly 15-20 years ago, students could not return to school until they could show they no longer had lice or nits.

Live spreads so quickly, I don’t want my kids bringing it home.[/quote]

Lice are less “contagious” than most people think[/quote]

Lol. Come to my classroom and sit next to the kid with lice and then say that. Nearly every time a student in my class has lice, at least one other person gets it. Five year olds don’t have great personal hygiene and many don’t understand personal space either. [/quote]
My DD had it for over a month.  A rash on her neck the pediatrician even thought was allergic.  We stayed with family over Thanksgiving.  Noone in our house or there's got lice. 5 kids between 5 and 10.[/quote]

That's terrible you risked bringing it into someone else's house.  Stop making excuses for not treating your kids and maintaining their hair.[/quote]

We had no idea..if you read.  We took her to doctor due to an itchy rash on her neck.  Doctor felt it was an allergy.  We were changing shampoo etc [/quote]

Schools usually send lice notices.  Its pretty obvious especially if its that bad.[/quote]

When we knew it was lice and reported it to the school, they said there were no other cases reported in her class.  They told us they send notes home after 5 cases are reported.  I also believe it is less contagious then people think.[/quote]
