[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is not the sniffles..This is a pest that can be difficult to get rid of in some instances. I have a husband and children.
This is me going home and putting everyone belongings in bags for weeks. This is me having to check my daughter's waist length hair for pests..This is my husband wondering if while he's sleeping things will crawl on him....nothing better to kill a sex life..
THIS ISNT THE FREAKING SNIFFLES...
IT CRAWLS AND BITES..MAKES YOU ITCH..CAUSES EMBARRASSMENTS IF SOMEONE NOTICES IT..

so yes I want you to come home and take care of your children..and keep the days PAY..
I'm tired of everything to do with the children falling under the umbrella of nanny care..

OP here by the way...[/quote]

I have previously posted as someone who has dealt twice with families with lice.  I also used to teach preschool and whenever there was a reported case of lice somewhere in the school, we had to do all the same precautions at school and I would have to do it at home as well. I know what a pain in the butt it is. With all the times I've been exposed to it, I have only gotten it one time.  I also think that with lice being so prevalent today, it does not have the stigma it used to. Lice gets spread in even the most hoity of schools.

I get that you are tired and frustrated, but when you work with children, you have to be prepared for anything. And what are you going to do, not go to work for the next few weeks until the lice is completely gone? It isn't a one day treatment.  You are going to have to be on lice patrol daily for the next few weeks until it is completely gone.  Daily lice checks, daily putting things away or in a hot dryer.
