Long hair on boys

[MSatterwhite]

So where does the hair go? Hair eaters in Northern Sudan?

Some gets sold. Large amounts are simply thrown away.

That reminds me. I meant to post this article I read in Readers Digest.

That's Outrageous -- Non-Profit Execs Misuse of Funds: Serving the Public Good? | Michael Crowley | Reader's Digest

When Paul C. Cabot, Jr., threw a $200,000 wedding for his daughter in 2001, the money to pay for it came from the Paul and Virginia Cabot Charitable Trust, which was established to fund worthy causes. Cabot was a trustee of the foundation and earned millions in salary from it over the years, but apparently that was not quite enough. So when his daughter's nuptials arrived, he gave himself a $360,000 raise -- money, he later admitted, he intended to put toward the posh Boca Grande, Florida, wedding.

Take the case of the Carl B. and Florence E. King Foundation, which receives tax-free status and makes grants to programs for children and the elderly, medical research and scholarships. In 2004 a jury ordered two of the charity's top officials to repay $7.5 million after they spent foundation money on everything from lavish vacations in Australia to health-club fees.

Your son looks adorable. Who cares what other people think? And he's young, too. Appearance certainly does affect perceptions, but if he doesn't look filthy or degenerate, and doesn't act like it, why worry?

Keep it long.

I like long hair on little boys, I really do. But I've had one friend and known another woman both of whom claim that they keep their sons' hair long because that's the way the kids want it.

But I also know that somewhat privately both wanted daughters when their son's were born and have done some quite feminine things with their little boys' hair. Like putting it in curlers, tying ribbons in it, etc.

I think we have to be careful that its what the kids want and not what we're imposing on them.

Long hair is fine but they're still little boys. You can't just stick 'em in a dress now and then because you wanted a daughter.

Didn't mean to offend you

I have two daughters and one SON.

Camily,

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you or suggest that your son had long hair because you wanted a daughter. I'm just saying that a couple of times I've seen that to be the case and I don't think that's fair of a parent to feminize a boy, just because that wasn't what she wanted.

There are undoubtedly lots of boys who want long hair - and probably even some who want long hair so they'll look like girls. I have no problem with any of that. I just don't think they should be "pushed" into that if they don't want to.

I know what you meant. No problem.
To tell you the truth, I always teae Cameron that I'm going to put his hair in braid though. He wants NO part of it.
