Would you say something to the mum

If your Dsons best friend at school was apparently up all night complaining their bum hurts and couldn’t sleep at all, I overheard the little boy say to my Dson that he was up ‘scratching scratching scratching.’ To me this screams pinworms but the mum said she didn’t know what it was and said it’s nothing what she can think of … would you say something?

Poor lad needs treatment to get rid of the worms. Not to forget how easily spread they are. I’d definitely say something, kindly, to the mum. It’s very common in younger children.

Yes why wouldn't you ?

Yes of course, she might not know what it is, if you do then tell her.
