Courteney Cox Arquette's Hairy Situation

Kudos to Courteney Cox Arquette! I can only imagine how uncomfortable it was for her to tell a fellow celebrity mom (whose name has not been revealed) that her 5-year-old daughter Coco gave her child head lice!

PR-Inside reports Courteney's embarrassing discovery and confession: “I look over and she (Coco) is itching her hair… I was so panicked, so I called her (the actress) up and I was like, ‘Guess what? We’re either going to be the best of friends, or you’re never going to talk to me again.’ And I said, Coco did in fact have lice.’ She said, ‘Oh, it’s just a rite of passage.’ She was so sweet,” the 45-year-old Friends star said.

Courteney's situation went from bad to worse when she realized she was infected as well: "I got it and it isn’t so funny anymore - especially when the paparazzi follow you (into the hair salon)."

Have you had to deal with this hairy situation? Did the other parent react well?

It's "rite" of passage, not "right" of passage.

Never had lice, thank God. Dodged mumps and ring worm too.

I never heard of that assumption. At first melanie's post made me go "huh?" because I assumed race had absolutely nothing to do with it. Interesting info.

Rinoa, African Americans CAN get lice but it's not common.

I don't think racism is an issue to the bugs, no worries melanie ;-) I only said something because I literally never heard anything about that before.
