    so my five year old needs a haircut. she wants a bob. I’m not giving it to her because it won’t suit her. Is this cruel?? I don’t want her looking like a boy. what’s the nicest way to explain to her, so that she will not go behind my back and cut it herself…I almost feel like getting her daycare teachers to bann scissors until she’s over this craze… At home I’ve already put the scissors out of her reach..

    or just let her have the bob because it will make her very happy and get it out of her system. Not letting her have it will just make it stick in her mind and make it that much more of an issue. Hair grows and you can change the style in a few months if it really does not look nice. Right now she probably just wants what her friend has. I am sure it will not look as bad as you think.

    Hi more.

    Eh…at five? What harm would it do? They have their likes and dislikes, and soon phases pass.

    As they say, the difference between and good haircut and a bad haircut…is about two weeks.

    At least it’s not a son who wants a mohawk.

    Know when to pick your battles.

    This absolutely ain’t one of them.

    Furthermore, if you take her to a hairdresser tomorrow, by Seder nite it will have grown back, but if you prolong this battle until Erev Pesach, there won’t be enough time for her hair to grow back for the Seder.
