I work in the schools in SC and there are many special needs children who are adult size that wear diapers. I guess that is how they got that on the list. They have to send a supply of them to the school. Just like school supplies.

I notice S.C. has adult diapers listed. I wonder how many adults, who wear diapers, are going to school?
