We are moving in right next to my parents. Which is not a problem. The problem is my nieces. My brother and his wife go to my parents house quite often and their kids (ages 11, 4, and 1-1/2) stay the weekend alot. I hate to even write this, but, the kids have lice ALOT. And the 4 year old is destructive and always filthy. It's not their fault, I know that, but I don't want them at my house all the time. I also have an 11 year old and twins on the way. I DO NOT want lice in my house or my kid's hair. When you try to talk to them about the lice issue, they get very angry and defensive and say "My kids don't have lice". Um, you can see it in their hair. I have had to treat my daughter's hair countless times. I am sick of it, so now I won't let her be around them. My question is-how can I (without hurting the kid's feelings, it's not their fault) keep them out of my house? I feel just awful for feeling this way, but I am sick of dealing with lice because of them. What can I do?
