If a child reeks so bad at school no one can stand to be around them (be it smoke or body odor or whatever), I think the teacher has a right to say something to the parents...or at least send a note home.
Of course, which is why I said this :

Thanks for the good ideas. I like the idea of having a change of clothes handy (although I think her hair and pores are pretty saturated- but that might make it tolerable) and I could think of a way to pull off the Febreeze spray-down.
My son actually does have breathing problems- he had RSV as a baby and every winter he ends up on breathing treatments again. So I might work that into the convo if I get up enough nerve to talk to her mom.
They don't go to the same school- my daughter is in private school and Marsha goes to the public school, so the teacher idea is out.
And good point about the 3rd hand smoke, AlphaFrog.
Thanks guys. Keep the suggestions coming if you have more.
