Dr. Dawn Nolt, MD

She advocates keeping children with lice in school and says that if other children get them as a result, it is part of "the human experience". Pediatrician and infectious disease expert? Then how do lice spread and further multiply??? Look at her hair, looks like she has a lice nest in the rag mop of hers! “Head lice are an unpleasant part of the human experience, but they can be successfully managed and are no reason for a child to miss school,” Dawn Nolt, MD, wrote. As a side note, children with lice are many times more susceptible to multiple facets of abuse. Every child I went to school with that was sent home for lice also came from a neglectful or usually abusive household.
