This is a simple No.
I’d say let’s find a new friend
Sorry but find her other friends
Talk to the child’s parents
How is this even a question? No. That’s the answer.

Look u have to think bout ur family 1st. U can’t keep going thru this if these ppl haven’t treated their house n themselves. Talk to the mom but if she gets offended then oh well, u have to sit ur daughter down n explain to her.
Maybe the other mother is struggling maybe there’s a home situation unknown to you that’s preventing her from treating it. It’s definitely delicate grounds BUT you have to think of your family first and foremost. So have a talk with the other mom if she isn’t receptive to conversation with you on it then as tough as it may be your daughter may have to settle for a FaceTime BFF. If her daughter still has the lice and she’s unreceptive to you conversing making suggestions or even offering to help then for that other child’s sake call social services. Nobody wants to be “that” person but as a last resort to help improve a child’s quality of life and overall health sometimes you have to be.

Lice shield shampoo will prevent lice, NOT kill them. You’ll need to suffocate them as 98% are immune to chemical treatments. Use coconut oil or mayo I found effective if left in overnight. Wash everything fabric in hot hot water. Then in 11 days do it again, that second treatment is CRUCIAL. They will come back or you will miss eggs coming but a baby can’t lay new eggs for 2 weeks, but take 1 week to hatch

Sounds like you never had a conversation about it with the parents before…that may cause an issue addressing it now…”like why didn’t you bring it up sooner” “ that wasn’t my child”…so on and so forth, but I would suck it up and tell them. Not only if you want her to be friends,but for the child’s health in case she’s not really being treated! Good luck
Talk to the friends parents and have them treat the friend . It’s only going to escalate into a bigger schooling problem in the fall if it’s not addressed now

Right it’s not the children’s fault, it nobody’s fault when u or your kids get it but it is if you keep it and don’t take care of it!!! That’s neglect! It’s hard especially when u have more then 1 with it but don’t be lazy and not get rid of it!! Poor girls just want to hang out and have friends. Shoot where is this does she need help I will help her out! 
no joke I’m serious. No shame!!
Honestly the mom is probably at her wits and maybe offer to help her get her house and kids free advice. That’s what I would do

It’s no. Why are you asking social media for an answer you already know. It’s covid. We all have to be safe. There is no option here.
No and talk to her mom
My daughter had it. School nurse told me you have to treat it then treat it again in 24 hours, then again in 7 days. We did it again 24 hours after the 7 days to make sure. Finally got rid of them
Only you can do is be honest about it, using the right tone of voice is about the o ky thi g to not make it harsh but it is a solid concern and should be addressed

How goes the other girls mom not notice her kids have lice??? Maybe you should talk to the mom and tell her your concern or offer some suggestions on how to get rid of it?! I mean im not being rude in any way but how on earth is that little girl not itching her head 24-7 mine itches just thinking about it 
or maybe her mom is struggling financially and cant afford to take care of the problem right now??? Sounds to me like you should just talk to the mom! Unfortunately there is no easy way to have the conversation…

Having an adult conversation shouldn’t be offensive. It’s a legitimate concern. Boredom isn’t enough for a 3rd, 4th or 5th bout with lice. My answer would be a firm no but I don’t concern myself with the feelings of others if it concerns the health of my family. Lice carry bacterial diseases like typhus. Over infestation can cause skin problems as well. It’s just gross. Sorry but yuck.
If she get offended then they knew it prior too and should have taken care of it. If they are struggling with it too give the mom advice to her. Tell her what you did to get rid of it. If she knows and does not care then in my mind I would have to restrict contact.
I would definitely talk to the friend’s mom. It can be done with compassion, and should be.
I bout these products on Amazon, for my granddaughter because she continuously came home from school with lice. Never had a problem with lice again. It’s pricy, but so worth it.

I stick to mayo n s bag now not paying for expensive crap that wont work cause they developed immunities to it. Most effective n inexpensive way to go especially if your poor or low income. Leave in on for an hour n pick them out they suffocate. Wash everything.

Take the suggestions about treating it in the future prior to, during & after a visit as well as COMPASSIONATELY talking with the kid’s mom. She may welcome advice & help with her family. She may be itching to have some of the cheaper treatments told to her & trying to figure out how to deal with it at her place.
Mayonnaise and a shower cap. 24 hours smells like hell and you may have to wash hair with Dawn but that is the only way to get rid of lice. The “Rid” and commercial products can cause an allergic reaction. My daughter had long thick hair and we washed with arid twice and then I read the label. The Mayo and shower cap was found on the internet.
Not me I would ask her mom to make sure her daughter doesn’t have lice again before she come over to house to sleep. I don’t care if her mom gets offended or not, the mom isn’t going to be the one taking it out again. Hell nah, I would go through that girls hair🤷♀️before she do come sleep over. Mom be straight up forward I would

I had a friend that always had lice as well. My mom would keep lice shampoo around all the time and anytime I hung out with that friend I always had to go straight to the shower when I got home and wash with the lice shampoo. If the friend came over she had to first wash with the lice shampoo before being allowed to roam the house. We never blamed the innocent child I was friends with and back then lice shampoo was a prescription now it’s over the counter. Just let the child borrow clothes while she’s there and wash her first and same with your daughter. Wash her the minute she comes in and the clothes go in the washer or a plastic bag until they can be washed.
Just tell her mom the truth. See if she needs help with the situation and is too upset to ask
If you don’t want to offend the mom or daughter, you could always just say yes and then take a bit of time to treat her hair? That’s what my friends mum used to do. Even if it was just an hour session… It was better than nothing.
Also I do agree with cheap and nasty. My mum used to do it on my hair and it worked better than actual pharmacy stuff. Just soak the hair in cheap budget conditioner and grab a towel and comb them out.
Uh no. Wtf is her mom doing? She needs to get her daughter help. She need stop get rid of the lice instead of letting her go around passing it. Pisses me off
There are even clinics made for this
Lil bit of kerosene in a shampoo bottle kills them and makes the scalp uninhabitable for lice.
Yes for get offending anyone lice are not a fun thing to deal with

it sucks getting lice as an adult. Happened to me too lol. I’d definitely talk to the mother first and make sure that she is free of lice. regardless if they get offended. I think it’s worth mentioning to prevent it from happening again. And to be on the safe side, put all your hair in tight ponytails with hats on LOL
This reminds me of when I was little and caught lice for the second time from my best friend. The second time I couldn’t tell my mom because she warned me that if I caught lice from her again I was not going to be able to go over her house again. I had the clever idea of putting oil all over my hair thinking this will make them slip off. In about a week, I was lice free 
Just do her mates hair, if I notice my kid has crawlers I call all the friends round and do them all, then a takeaway treat, kids get lice, is what it is
Let her mum know her daughterhas headline, she may be unaware and offer to treat the child’s hair and give her advice on what to do in regards to linen etc.

There’s no shame in notifying the other parent of lice after a play date as a courtesy.
Mention to the mum that your daughter has just gotten rid of the lice and you’re not sure whether she’s given them to daughters friend and you don’t want them to keep passing them off to each other. So best she checks and treats first.

How does people not know they have lice?
When the kid is free of lice there is a spray, to spray the hair with to prevent it. You can Google it, I don’t know what its called. Thank God I never needed it.
That’s a hard no for me…let them facetime or something… there is no way I would deal with lice again
Talk to mom. If she can’t afford it, get the Shampoo yourself and treat her. With the mothers permission.

Her mom needs to know the truth. Lice is no fun & is expensive to treat. But everyone in their house has to be treated plus all furniture & bedding before she can back to my house. I would double check her for it my self. I am sorry for your daughter but that’s the way it goes.

We went through this last year with the kids I used to babysit. We ended up having to treat our whole household and I automatically knew where it came from because the kids I watched were the only people we had really been around. Their dad KNEW about it but told them not to say anything. I felt bad but I stopped allowing them over. I felt bad to the point of buying expensive treatment to send home because they had sores on their heads. If they get offended, so be it. Not talking about it is what causes school wide and other mass infestations. We thankfully were able to get rid of it quickly but I’d never want to have to go through it again.
For a start you could have been honest with the girls mom and it would have been nice for you to at least attempt to offer and help her get rid of them too. Nobody likes dealing with this kinda thing but it does happen.

Maybe I am a crappy mom, however, that happened to my daughter twice in a 2 month span with the same friend and I had to chop her beautiful hair the second time because that family wouldn’t take care of the problem knowing that they had an infestation in their home… I don’t do bugs period especially in my children’s hair, so all of you saying to treat the friends hair as well does not solve the problem as it clearly is also within their home… That being said that is a absolute negative! Sorry for that poor child that has to deal with that!

Just straight up tell her mama yo kids got lice she should check hers too and they should quarantine for awhile she’s a mom she should understand let her get hers checked n treated
Don’t let her. Make sure the problem has been handled. Be sure to check the scalp of all family members. You don’t want a lice infestation in your home.
When we were kids and one of the group of friends got lice we did a lice removal party lol
It doesn’t have to be offensive, in some climates it’s just unavoidable. Make some pizzas, invite mom and everyone else over and make the best of it.

Reach out to the parents. Lice is a BIG no. She’s already given it to your household twice. Definitely not worth a 3rd time to avoid offending someone.

Ur kids are ur priority. My little boy has long curly hair and dealt with this for months when he got it from school. I refused to shave his hair but put alot of time and work into it! It can cost a lot of money and I do not blame you one bit for wanting to make sure the other child is lice free!!
I worked in a preschool setting for 40 years and never got headlice. It oftentimes ran wild through the classrooms. We helped many families treat it and provided shampoo for the family. I constantly vacuumed my carpets. I did laundry with hot water and dried on high heat at home. In the school setting,We eliminated all stuffed animals. We removed dress up clothes and doll clothes. Hats were removed. Children had individual coat hooks and their coats and hats were not in the classroom.
Personally, I used tea tree and lavender as shampoo and in body wash. I always kept hairspray on my hair. Also I used eucalyptus leaves around my home as well as lavender sprigs hung as dry flowers. I might just have been lucky,but I never had it,even when my own child brought it home from school.
It seemed like my grandchildren came home every other week with head lice, I didn’t like the idea that they were being treated with head lice treatment because of some of the precautions on it, I find a shampoo that can be used every time hair is shampooed and this last year no head lice. Treatment need, I order off Amazon snd did auto delivery once a month.
Absolutely no way would that girl be allowed in my home before I had a talk with the mom to share my concerns on Lice. I would let her know your house has been infected and you have concerns her child might of caught it. Be honest with her.
Listerine & Vinegar kill those pesky things. My daughter kept lice in elementary school because of her cousin and her dad. Her aunt would never treat her daughter and dad would never treat his house. It was awful and after a couple of chemical treatments, I got frightened that it was unhealthy for my girl. So I googled homeopathic treatments for lice. Low and behold, the fastest was this cocktail and it worked like a charm.
I would tell her mom I need to personally check your daughter’s hair to feel comfortable having the kids together.
Make your home a NO LICE zone. I would attempt to find more children for play dates. I feel sorry for this little girl that always has lice but it is a natural consequence that she is unfortunately paying because of whatever is going on at her home.
Simple solution to get rid of lice. Soak hair in conditioner…any kind. It smothers lice, then comb them out. The thing that really gets rid of nits is blow drying the hair…alot. It literally dries them out!!! Tried and true method!!!
Treat the friend with lice . ask her to wash her hair with ant love shampoo.
or add kerosene in hair, a little on scalp,
and wash with shampoo after an hour or two.
It sounds to me like her Mother is neglecting the child. Go check it out.
Alcohol,conditioner,and either peppermint or tea tree oil spray the hair especially the scalp and comb out w a lice or flea comb…can even leave in hair for a few hours
Go to a park or cancel - lice are exhausting to fight , she should understand unless she isn’t trying to eradicate them herself … it’s a polite no for me
Not worth dealing with this your the mom and have to put your kids first
offend her and her mom … it’s called tough love … if you don’t call it to their attention, you guys will forevermore have to endure this awful unclean condition …
Whether it’s in style or not, put hair gel in her hair. Lice hate hair gel. I’m not saying to let her friend come over or not. That is a decision only you and her pediatrician should make . You should consult her pediatrician.
Call the Mother to Mother about the child You’re concern and not being rude because it’s the kids are Friends and this matter has to be taken care of If she becomes defensive she doesn’t care about her child but you do about your family I would hope she agrees and solves it If not I wouldn’t allow visits until she gets rid of lice
Give the girl a bottle of Lady Bugs conditioner and tell her it will make her hair so soft.
Spray tea tree oil on her hair and do braids and twist in to a bun
Yes, talk to themother and left her know that your daughter has gotten lice 2x from her…
