To think this mother shouldn't have posted this on facebook?

[malificent7]

My dd like most kids gets nits. Her best mate from school also gets them.
I am continuosly treating dds hair... lotion, nitty grotty. Weekly/ fortnightly.
So is she.

My dd has long, thick haor and hates anyone touching it. Hers has short fine hair.

As far as im concerned all the kids give each other nits and we parents do our best to tame them.

I dont blame any particular child/ parent.

A whike back this mum posted on fb

" please can all parents from dds achool treat their childs nits. Im fed zo of you all giving my chikd nots. "

I knew she meant my chikd as dd still had nits after a few treatments.

How do i know her chikd wasnt giving my dd nits.
I wrote her a message and she told ne to gwt a nitty gritty. I had one!

Aibu to think this was very passive aggressive? Why didnt she speak to me directly? Also... why blame one chikd AND pist on facebook?

People were writinf bame and shame on her wall! Ive since concluded she's a prize dick! And dd has been nut free since moving from a different class to that friend!

People keep their kids off school for having head lice?! DDs head teacher would have a blue fit and half the Infants would be off at any one time. Sometimes they're just prevalent in one class. When dd was little, one particular girl had them all year and just kept reinfesting the other kids. You could quite clearly see them crawling on her but mum was oblivious and schools aren't allowed to point them out to particular parents now. It just meant I had a weekly date with the comb. (And get a proper one and use conditioner, much better and cheaper than lotions and potions from the chemist.)

wait.... I just read through all these posts for something that happened a year ago that didn’t single out your child that you decided to post mid festival????????

How is she blaming your child? You say it's petty but your on here moaning and thinking it's all about your child. Yabu.

Oh no now its raining at festival. Maybe hide out in Mr Tea

If you are so "hot" on "safeguarding" you would have dealt with the nits sufficiently. Prolonged nits and not treating them would also flag up as a safeguarding concern under neglect.

"Not had them for 6 months" - opne of the mums at school said this about her daughters, who also had long tick curly hair. When pressed though, what she actually meant was "has constantly had one or two for years and years but not a huge massive outbreak for 6 months."

Maybe you feel the post was directed at you because it was, because you have said you werent treating your daughter's nits effectively

As far as im concerned all the kids give each other nits and we parents do our best to tame them.

No - one child gets nits from outside school, then gives them to their school class, then we all treat our children to ERADICATE them. Nits are common and there is no point finding out who had them first, as if you have got them they need treated regardless.

If this Mum is your DD's best friends Mum then let it go . . . and treat them more thoroughly from the start next time.

So you've got pissed today and are ruminating over a Facebook post about lice when your DD's 'magnificent' lousy infested mane has been nit free for 6 months?

You're deranged.

Don't worry OP, I know what you mean and I usually do a massive eye roll at those sort of Facebook posts, and assume it's the person posting who is not de-nitting effectively.

A year ago???? What??

How is it a safeguarding issue if she didn't name anyone? If your daughter gets bullied for having nits it's because kids can see the nits in her hair!

She's completely right. No one gives a fuck about your childs "magnificent" licey mop. Sort your child's hair.

No, they don't all constantly get nits. They don't keep passing it round.

She's right, treat your kids lice ridden hair properly and stop focusing on the wrong things.

Just rtft... You're "that" parent, euch

How did she single you out when she didn't mention you in anyway?

If you think it was about you, you must be feeling guilty and giving her kid nits1

Well that was five minutes of my life down the gurgler.

I shouldn't really engage ....but

1. is there a chance you could have knots rather than nits?
2. Is there a chance you could have accidentally taken something at this festival that's made you ever so slightly paranoid?
3. If the answer to both points above is no then I would chance l the cheque Hope this helps Dexter

Cancel the cheque
D'oh...now it's not quite so funny........

She is a cunt ! Block her

She's an ass.
Let it go.

Frontline pet spray is hands down the best nit treatment ever.Family member is vet, recommends it ,as the area we live in is rife with nitty families. Spray in stripes on scalp- leave for 24 hours- wash. Done. Comb out corpses. Absolutely serious. Kills them in hats, on sheets the works. Not toxic.

Then when there is another outbreak, as a PP said tea tree oil spray, and tie up hair.

Erm it happened a year ago ? You are not treating the nits then and YABU !! Why u posting this now ?? Nitty gritty combs and Hedrin means nits gone within a week so you are obviously not doing it properly

My going into year 3 child has never had nits. School does have a hair up policy though???

Kids shouldn't get nits that often though.

I think DD got nits about 3 times at Primary School which seemed the norm ime.

It happened a year ago but your DD has only been nit free for 6 months? So she had nits for at least 6 months? Even after it had been publicly brought to your attention? Poor kid.

How bizzare. A generic face book post, but aimed at you? And your nit free child?

If your kid does have nits and you aren't able to get rid of them, educate yourself. If she's nit free, then it's not aimed at you is it? Which is it please op?
