Please read..especially if you have girls.
Well I got a phone call yesterday from the school nurse telling me that my daughter had head lice...YUCK. We knew that it was going around b/c you get the letters sent home in the backpack...Ive dealt with this before so all in all it wasnt a huge deal. ANYWAY...I asked the nurse to check her sister. Her sister checked out fine..(they share a room and even sleep together a couple of times a week..) ANYWAY..her darling sister goes back to her class and tells the entire class and then the entire 3rd grade at lunch that her sister has LICE...ANYWAY..starting at 4pm when the kids get home from school my phone starts ringing with all of my daughters friends calling and asking if DD has LICE and if its true etc etc..I felt so bad for her. She was mortified.
As your DD get older please teach them that LICE is OK. I mean of course you dont want it and dont want to get..but its something that a lot of our little girls will have to contend with at some point. She was OK until all her friends started calling her. If your DD comes home from school telling you that one of their friends has please dont act grossed out..b/c it could be her next week. She was devastated that noone was going to want to come over and play with her any more. Which to an 8 year old is a big deal.
I realize that its gross (Im itching just typing this) But I want to help all our little ones from the future heartache my daughter faced this morning going back to school and having to face all of her friends...

It's not gender-specific. Boys get it just as much as girls, and boys will pick on their classmates just as badly as girls at that age.
