About 3 weeks ago my friend's DD was sent home from kindergarted as she had nits. She was at home for 10 days, went back for a few days then was sent home again.
She has been back in kindergarten since Monday. According to the GP, she was nitfree last Thursday.
Now DS has been sent home as he has nits which is a pain as he has to stay off 10 days. I am selfemployed so have to call off my classes.
My problem with my friend is that her DD has very long, very thick hair. She is 3yo and her hair reaches her waist. I cannot see that she can say that DD is definately free off nits. She would have to spend hours combing and searching. It would be very easy to miss just one egg, they are so tiny.
The first time she had nits, she talked about getting her DD's hair cut but has not done this. I know that it would not get rid of the horrible beasties, but it would make detecting them much easier.
To make matters worse, when I called her to tell her I could not take her DD home with me this afternoon as my DS has nits, she said, "Well, now I know where DD caught them again" as the kindergarten had just phoned to let her know. I was so as I have done loads to help her, even looking after her DD when she was working. I have a dent in my tongue from biting it.
