As a parent I have checked and checked my daughters hair hundreds of times over her twelve years of existence. This time- whammo- lice! OMG She is missing school, her school play and we are the parasites of the Girl Scout world. I never thought this could happen. She obviously got it from someone else- but why did she get it now?
I feel like such a failure that this time I hadn't checked her hair. Shes a teen and doesn't want me near her let alone touch her hair. She never complained about any itching, but I guess I feel like I should have known somehow. Some sort of mom sixth sense. Now a hundred dollars later it is over for us- but others that got it all look at her with that "it's your fault" look. Even though it can't all be her fault. She is not the center of the world and all lice start with her; but it sure feels like that right now. We have a company coming now and hopefully they will get all the buggers. Then all we have to worry about it them coming back. PLEASE NO. I have boiled and washed everything. Half of the house is outside in bags.
Thanks I needed to vent.
