Just thinking about it makes my head itch.

It's lice and I don't know of many other things that can make your skin crawl like that one little word. And elicit fear in mothers worldwide as they do everything they can to prevent it from coming to their home.

I remember getting a notice when I was in junior high that someone at school had lice and we all had to be careful. We were not to share coats, hairbrushes or hats. We never found out who had it but we always had our suspicions. I assumed it was kids who weren't clean or maybe didn't take enough baths.

It wasn't until my daughter got it at preschool when she was four that I realized cleanliness had nothing to do with it. I actually found out from our doctor at the time that those insipid little creatures like clean heads, especially curly clean hair. Well, that meant my daughter and it was not fun.

We used some product off the shelf which was supposed to work. It didn't. We tried another. No luck. I finally had to cut her hair and comb through each strand one by one. Not a picnic for either one of us.

I'm happy to report that there is a better way now. It's called Lice MD. I'm even happier to report that I don't need it right now, so if you do, I've got a free sample for you from Mom Central. It's effective, safe, simple, and pesticide free. Also non-toxic and odorless. All good things to have when you're using it on the sensitive scalp of your child.

If you're dealing with this problem now, I sympathize. If you'd like a free sample and you're the first one to email me, I'll send it to you right away. Don't worry, I won't make a big announcement about who got the free sample...just between us.

Hey girl! We had the lice thing with Caity TWICE this year her first year of kindergarten. OMG, what a nightmare. I was ready to shave her head, but Gregg freaked. Then I got it!!! I wish I'd heard about this stuff before--we used RID, but I hate all the pesticides. Thank goodness we don't have a need now, but I was so freaked out at first --yes, that cleanliness myth--but found out that the kids who get it the worst are the cleanest, usually.
Hope all's well!!!
