My 11 year old daughter has had nits/lice 3 times in the last year! My 15 year old however, has never had them. It's really frustrating when it keeps happening!0

Over the weekend i found my DD had headlice,i have treated it and keep checking morning and night.She has gone back to school today and i rang the school to inform them so they can send a note out to the kids in the class and they have told me they are not allowed to send a note out now as its against human rights.I am absolutely disgusted surely the parents should know there is a possibility their child may have headlice.I am so annoyed it has cost me over £20 to get rid of these and theres a good chance she will get it back.The best of it they are going to camp next month in tents.Does anyone know the correct stance on this as i thing the human rights thing has gone totally mad.0

My sons school sends out a de-bug letter whenever they are aware of a headlice case, it just gives general information as to treatment etc, so i dont understand why your childs school is saying this
I am very lucky my son has only ever had them once when he was 2 before he started school, but i am dreading my daughter going to school she hates her hair done at the best of times lol:rotfl:"Say cheese mommy"

Been on to various agencies who deal with education and the bottom line is that Headteachers are not to send out letters informing parents of an outbreak i am gobsmacked that in this day and age that this is the case.0 -
I am absolutely sick of doing my daughters hair. I de nit her hair every sunday and my ex does my daughters hair every wednesday.Every week she has nits yet when you tell the school they say there is nothing they can do about it. I feel so sorry for my daughter as she has really thick hair and it can be painful detangling/ de nitting her hair with such a fine tooth comb. Something should be done about this.0

my kids school doesn't even send letters home as they've been told it's not pc! We've got to rely on word of mouth. So while i'm checking my lot every week the parents of others don't so it's never ending!:laugh::Sometime I try to be NORMAL. . . But it gets boring so I go back to being me. . .0
