If gum stuck in hair (child/cat/dog etc !) use peanut butter - rub/massage into hair, and gently pull out - it does work - I have tried it on my daughter when she was 5 and had waist-legnth hair!

Or stick said child in the freezer for a few hours, the gum will become brittle and flake off.

The freezing method does work as I used ice cubes to harden the gum my child left on the back seat of my car and then scraped it off. It tok a while but it worked.
