Guest guest Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 , It's not really the preschool's business! But, they say that you can wash it off 1/2 hour after applying. I do wash Jack's off in the mornings before school so he won't smell as strong- so for that reason I put it on the tops of his feet. Sometimes I put it behind his knees though. Jack is 3 1/2 and most of the kids in his class are a little older (were 4 in the fall). I started washing it off because some of the kids were calling him 'stinky Jack', which he thought was pretty funny. As far as the smell and them wondering what's going on with that -- which no one has ever asked -- I volunteered that he was on a transdermal B1 vitamin cream and that it sometimes smelled a bit skunky. I think it's safe to say that the interventions we do for our children can't have any effects on children they play with... However, all the perfumes, scented lotions and toiletries, and strong cleaners, that some parents and teachers use can be really bad for ALL kids (you can tell this is my current rant w/Jack's school).

You probably should apply where the child can't get to it or it's covered with clothes. Shoulder blade, back of knees, top of feet, ribs, etc. > > I do plan to put this on his back but I'm sure these were legit > questions due to liability issues... and just wanting to understand > this process better. > Thanks! > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 12, 2004 Report Share Posted February 12, 2004 Hi Sharon.. I did not mean to convey that I am at odds with the school.. actually it is just the opposite They have jumped through hoops to accommodate Slater's needs.. far beyond what I would have ever expected and they just want to understand more about the chelation and if there are any precautions that need to be taken. It is a university based intervention clinic and they truly have been so supportive. Didn't mean for it to sound otherwise. Thanks and good luck! > > Hi... just have a question here from my child's preschool.
