Lice and Your Child's Feelings

As parents we are responsible for our child's physical as well as emotional needs. This can be a very real challenge when your child comes home with lice. You are going to want to get rid of the lice but in a nurturing and loving way. The school- age child, in particular, is vulnerable to feeling very insecure about having lice. The school-age child is concerned about peer perception (what will my friends think of me if I have lice) and feelings of inadequacy (something is wrong with me). While your child may not express these feelings to you, please know that they exist and are very real. While other lice removal companies may focus on just getting rid of the lice, Licenders has a staff specially trained to treat your child with sensitivity, care and respect.
