Apparently the mother wants to wait until the 2 year old brother is 5 before cutting his hair off for charity.

The 5 year old's haircut raised £86...

Mountains out of molehills. The mum's sad because he has gorgeous hair that's getting cut off and the press make out she's a complete nutter, totally controlling him and putting him at the mrecy of bullies.

One man's molehill is a little boy's summit of Mt. Everest. This mother sounds no better than the crazy parents who get the last laugh by naming their kids Apple or Moonbeam or Adolph. Living vicariously through one's kids is bad enough..and it really is a sad thing. However, tormenting the kid with a sick, distorted sense of how things should have been is just cruel.

It's not like the little boy was even half way happy with the situation. The only one mad is the mother and she is the last one who should have had an opinion anyway. It's his hair.

Actually, the press reported it but made no comment.

I feel sorry for the little boy, who has been bullied because of his mother's desire to have a girl.

Poor kid, your gonna get bullied with hair like that, surely the mother understands how cruel kids can be. Which makes her responsible for any bullying that occurs. She is basically bullying the child by proxy.

Is that man cutting that little girl's hair in an office?

His hair seems very healthy, but slightly unkempt.
The only thing I see as possibly odd is the earrings. But I wouldn't pierce holes into my daughter's ears (if I had one), so it would follow that I would also not pierce holes into my son's ears.

OMG! I didn't notice the earning!

That mother sends her boy to school with hair like a girl and an earing?

Wow. Child cruelty.

I think it's sad that people have to get so caught up in material appearances... however, that said, his mother clearly has issues. Who cries over hair, especially hair that's not even their own? Seriously? At least she let him get it cut, so I don't think there's much left to discuss here. The problem has been solved.

I know in England it took awhile for toothpaste to catch on...maybe they are having the same problem with conditioner?

Now now, play nice. I wish conditioner was unknown, my wife spends a fortune on the stuff! As for me? Baldies need no conditioner

i think it should be up to the wee boy about how he wants his hair... if he wants it cut then so be it...
i do find it a little strange, but maybe the mother had always wanted a daughter and never had one or something....

at least he wont get bullied... but like the 2nd poster said ;



Long hair does not make you a girl any more than short hair makes you a boy.


totally agree with you on that one...!

I have to say I feel for mom. I have a little boy who had a beautiful head of curly locks like that. God, they were gorgeous. We let him go until he started kindergarten and then had it cut a week before school started. It wasn't near as long as this boy in this thread but it was down to his mid-back and I used to put it up in a ponytail during the day because I live in SC and the summers here are brutally hot and humid, especially for those with long hair.

I saved a lock of it but it bothered me more than it bothered dad or even my son that people commented on what a gorgeous little girl I had.


I didn't want him to go through his first years of school being thought of as a girl, plus it was such a hot mess in the summer.

My son is 16 and likes his long hair. Of course no one ever mistakes him for a girl though his hair is half way down his back.

There are some people that believe - and I'm one, that hair has a spiritual quality.
A lot of native Americans believed it, Perhaps some of it is that it takes some spiritual power to not do with your hair what society wants you to do with your hair.

The kids that bullied the child over long hair...to my mind, they were the ones that were wrong.
Are we human beings or chickens? Chickens peck at each other like that, for perceived weakness or differences or just pecking order.

There is nothing wrong with the boy having long hair. As long as that is what the boy wants.

What a bunch of control freaks in this thread. Take a kid away because her son has long hair? No where did it say she never LET him get a hair cut, he asked for one and she got it for him. It's HER kid. Why not get pissed at the other parents who let their children bully another based on his looks. Complete insanity in this thread. Get human ffs.

Some us aren't socially condition enough so we don't follow what is considered ''normal'' (I loathe that word) by the herd and MSM. I say it should of been up too him. It seems he wanted to have it cut since he was being bullied by the unfortunate brainwashed children of the EXTREMELY brainwashed parents. I see guys with long hair all the time. You know what i think of it? Nothing at all,I don't think its ''weird'' or ''strange'' or that they should have it cut People are so far into the programming that they find the slightest thing that doesn't fit into the ''norms'' of society or the norm's of the herd, ''weird''. That word doesn't exist in my world believe it or not.
