For some reason, my daughter always has me take Anderson for his haircuts, except the very first time when we both took him. The last couple of times I am convinced it was because she wanted me to pay. Today she had me take both boys. I hadn’t agreed to it, in fact, I didn’t even know until I went to get Spencer to go to the Dollar Tree. She had both boys ready and had told them they were going for haircuts. So off we went.
Spencer was not behaving, you know that kid that can’t sit still and is running all over and ends up knocking down all the shampoos they sell, yeah that was him. I should have just said let’s go home but we stayed and they called both boys at the same time so I told one lady what we wanted for Anderson and showed her a picture. Then I say with 4 year old Spencer as they cut his hair. Spencer got a cool haircut and Anderson’s is nice too but it’s short. Short. As in too short. Not sure he likes it. His mom hasn’t seen it because he refused to go home so he’s here with me. He went straight to bed when we got home and it was really early, like four.
Of course, it will be all my fault. So I will have paid thirty dollars for haircuts that they don’t like and I didn’t offer to pay for. I think next time, she needs to take them and pay or not say a word about it.
Now if she would pay me back, I could get my hair cut because it has been two years. I won’t hold my breath.
I think you sometimes go beyond in the “Nana” department…

I know I do but I set the precedent with Anderson 7 years ago and now I’m sorry of stuck.

My mother cut my hair at home until I was in middle school. Granted, she was good at it, but still…I have trouble seeing the point of paying for haircuts for very small children, for both behavioral and financial reasons.

My dad cut my brothers’ hair for a long time. My sisters and I would go to the beauty college for $2 haircuts!
