I shaved my son's hair as punishment. What should I do?

[Anonymous]

My son is a very naughty person. He doesn't listen to my words. His exams were very bad. No matter what punishment I gave him, he did not behave. So, as punishment, I shaved off all the hair with a hair clipper. He is crying and not talking at home, he is embarrassed to go to school tomorrow, what should I do? I admit I was cruel.

Dude, that was not cool at all or what you did to your so. Shaving your son's head as punishment? That's super messed up. I get that he's been acting up and not listening, but that's just taking things way too far.

You're supposed to be the parent, the one who's there to guide and support him, not humiliate him like that. Shaving his head is just cruel and degrading - it's not gonna teach him anything except that you can't be trusted.

Dude, you really messed up here. Your son is probably feeling so embarrassed and ashamed right now. I bet he's dreading having to face his friends and classmates at school tomorrow with a shaved head. That's gotta be super tough for a kid.

You need to apologize to him, big time. Let him know that what you did was wrong and that you're sorry for hurting him like that. Tell him you're gonna make it up to him somehow, maybe take him shopping for a cool new hat or something.

And in the future, you gotta find better ways to discipline him that don't involve humiliating or physically changing his appearance. Grounding him, taking away privileges, having him do chores - those are all way better options than just shaving his head.

Look, I know it's tough being a parent, especially with a kid who doesn't listen. But you can't just lash out and do stuff like that. It's only gonna make things worse in the long run. You gotta stay calm, be the adult, and find constructive ways to get through to him.

This is a chance for you to step up and show your son that you're there for him, even when he's messed up. Build that trust back, be the role model he needs. With some patience and the right approach, you can get him back on track without resorting to cruel punishments.

It won't be easy, but you got this, bro. Just don't ever do something like that shaving thing again, alright? Your kid deserves so much better than that.

Apologize and hope he doesn't inform his teachers, who may in turn tell your city's Child Protective Services (many school systems mandate school personnel to alert Child Welfare Agencies of suspected abuse, which you surely committed) or you may be in BIG TROUBLE, AnonymousLaddie (25-29!!!)

How many ridiculous troll accounts do you have?

He's not a girl, he will get over it. It doesn't matter if a boy goes to school with a shaved head

[jahaims]

He acts that way because you don't know how to parent. You are a failure

Good fake story.
