Lice! Lice! Lice! Horror. Itching. Awful.
Say the chat lice and every parent feels an itch. A hand goes up to their head, and they scratch.
The lice themselves – effing ungenerous bloodsuckers – are manageable. It’s the rest of the world that makes the experience miserable. Work colleagues you’ve never touched swell their hands at you and say, “Stay away.” Play dates get cancelled, even for the kid without lice.
Known lice carriers are shunned. Beleaguered and drained parents spend evening after evening after work washing bedclothes, vacuuming couches, cleaning hair and customarily worrying about missing just one bug.
We’re just coming out of a round of lice now. And it sucks. (HA! A lice pun. I’ll spurn as soon as my sense of humor comes back.)
We are, unfortunately, lice magnets . My kids have picked them up in pre-primary too many times to count. And at school. In one instance, I banned my kids from the pillowy, carpeted reading alcove in their classroom. But it didn’t work. We still got it twice that year. I quizzed Son about how that could have happened. Did he share a comb? Hats? Did he put on the chilliness period hats at Colonial Williamsburg? No. Nothing. Did he read in the reading nook? No. “But we wrestle in there. It’s fun,” said Son. Riddle solved.
