Head Lice in Dutch Schools: Facts, Treatments, and Ending the Stigma

It’s the email every parent in the Netherlands dreads. In this warm, honest, and direct solo episode, Eva tackles the "itchy" reality of head lice with a mix of personal stories and hard facts. We’re breaking down the myths: hygiene has absolutely nothing to do with it, and lice are just as common in high schools as they are in primary classrooms.

Eva explores the science of how lice actually spread (spoiler: they can't jump or fly!) and which treatments really work—and which are just a waste of your time and money. Most importantly, we’re addressing the unnecessary shame and silence that often keep outbreaks going. Whether you’re currently armed with a nit comb or just want to be prepared for the inevitable "Luizenmoeder" check, this episode is a stigma-free guide to handling one of the most common hurdles of parenting in the Netherlands.
