I was listening to talk radio, on my way home from work yesterday, and one particular discussion gave me a serious case of mental whiplash. They interviewed a woman who is pushing to have schools allow children, who are found to have lice, continue to go to school while they still have them. Her rationale is that you can't catch anything from someone who has lice, except lice. She also cited how the American CDC supports this and how other countries do it. Because of this she said that it was selfish of other people to put children in a situation that stigmatizes them, for having lice.
Seriously.
Selfish.
She also said that one morning, when her daughter was getting ready for school, she say that she was scratching her head a lot and didn't look at it,herself, because she knew that she would have to keep her home. Wilful blindness.
To me, this is indicative of the way that our society is going, these days.
