Is it bad to ask to have them bathed?
The skids come tonight & can already smell them. Seriously. Your daughter gets lice. You bathed her & combed her hair for a week, bio moth. You would think it coulda lasted longer... I don't know... Like FOREVER. The school said it was the WORSE CASE THEYVE EVER SEEN. nits (eggs) lice & mature lice. That would be THREE GENERATIONS OF LICE. ugh. Would it be wrong to text "please have kids bathe tonight before we pick them up" ?

Putting baby oil in the kids'
Putting baby oil in the kids' hair will help kill the lice, they can't move in dirt or grease and prefer clean heads to dirty ones.
Let them soak in it overnight with a shower cap.
She doesn't have lice now.
She doesn't have lice now. But she's back to not bathing. And on weekends we bathe her. It's the midweek, couple hour visit that is horrid.
Oh! I misunderstood. I would
Oh! I misunderstood.
I would just bathe her the second she walked in the door. I make sure my daughter always bathes the night before she's going to BD's because even though it's only a couple of nights I know he won't bathe her.
I don't see how parents do it for themselves but don't make sure it's the same for their children.
"I don't see how parents do
"I don't see how parents do it for themselves but don't make sure it's the same for their children." I have wondered that about my Skids BM a lot!
I have that same question
I have that same question when I caught SS13 putting on dirty underwear and socks after he was MADE to shower!! I doubt he ever showers at his BM's because he has such greasy hair when he comes over but when you see her she's got her hair all done etc etc And same way with my DH he always dresses very nicely.
How can parents take care of themselves but be so lazy about their child's hygiene (shaking head)!!

I don't think your request is wrong. It might be taken wrong if its sent in a text though.
Are you serious? At their
Are you serious? At their ages? First of all, I can't believe that they don't just do it on their own and secondly, what kind of bm puts up with kids that age refusing to bathe on their own? Geez that's gross. I'm so sorry for you.
Our dumb ass BM washed the
Our dumb ass BM washed the kids hair with dog shampoo. They would come over and their heads would be crawling with lice...she had to have been eaten up with it as well. So nasty.
The biggest issue is the
The biggest issue is the midweek couple hour visit. They come smelling like ass for 5 hours. Do rotate them in the shower? And then what... Bio moth doesn't wanting them wearing "our clothes" to her house.
We have to make SS14 bathe as
We have to make SS14 bathe as soon as he comes into the house. BM's house REEKS of cat urine and mold and cigarette smoke, and it's embedded in SS's clothes. He takes off the clothes, we wash them in vinegar, they still stink, and they go into a plastic bag and into the garage until it's time to go back to BM's. One time DH picked him up from BM's and the smell was so bad he had to drive with the windows down, and it was ten degrees outside. Another time, he had an asthma attack from the stench. I seriously can't describe to you how ungodly awful it is. Faux's teachers used to complain about it all the time, but nothing was ever done.
So, to answer your question, no, it's not rude. If they stink, they need to bathe. period.
And I wouldn't let them in the house with lice. That shit's impossible to get rid of once it's in the house.
