Like several others have said, I was in school 13 years, never heard of a single case of lice. Maybe parents kept it hush-hush due to embarrassment?

Was it always the same kids? It was always the Lafrance brothers at my school and a couple other kids from the same "rural" area. Like the hillbilly kids.

Here’s the best advice you’re going to get from a former pediatric nurse:

Get a bottle of LA Looks mega hold hair gel.

Slather that gel in their hair until it’s saturated.

Wrap their head in plastic wrap with the gel still in hair and leave in for 12-24 hours.

They’ll be dead the next day.

When I was growing up (born in 1959) we never had that stuff in school. It seems common place now. What is the problem?

Don't get me wrong, I know lice have been around to drive humanity crazy for as long as humanity has been around to be driven crazy. You would normally read about people living in filthy conditions, along with other ailments that are common in that situation.

I've heard talking heads say that it has nothing to do with any particular type of people or environment. The lice wouldn't be on filthy people... Really? I call bunk.

The majority of the people in this world will never even see a bath, and that includes Europeans.

Europeans have showers over their toilets at least, but the vast majority of the underdeveloped world doesn't even have clean water at a local spigot to draw from, let alone bathrooms like we have in America.

Central America isn't that different.  There are straight-up peasants who live in trash and on dirt floors if they are lucky.

The "wealthy" have homes with glass shards embedded on the tops of their yard walls, with rebar over their windows.

Trivia: black people are not very susceptible to head lice. The lice species that love us don't do well on black hair. For black hair to be infested, it has to be a terribly unhygienic case, like a homeless crackhead type of thing.

I grew up in a rural  50% white/50% black area in the 70s, and not only did we have the occasional lice check, but the black kids had a sickle cell check. I remember one kid being taken out of the class as he was a positive and a current concern.

I remember that name from when I was a kid.  We occasionally had a lice outbreak in elementary school and the nurse would comb each kid's hair and see if they had it.  If someone had them we all had to take home a letter that said to do the comb inspections and buy the shampoo if needed.

God help you if someone found out you had them or you would get a new nickname.

I remember getting lice in elementary school in rural New Mexico in the late '70's and having to do the shampoo and comb bit, I think it was just before Christmas break, as I recall a hotel bathtub when using the shampoo.  Illegal immigration wasn't as large of a concern as it is now.

I remember those inspections.  Once the nurse dropped a toothpick that was being used to examine a student.  Another student tried to help by picking it up.  The teacher freaked out as if the student was just then exposed to gonasyphaherpalaids and would soon release ebola on everyone.

Years later, we're talking 20 or so years later, I ran into that teacher and called them out on their bullshit.
