Mind, telling him he looks like the Wendy's chick might just fix the issue all by itself......<br /><br />My husband has hair as long as I do (which isn't short), but he doesn't dye it. Course, on him it looks imposing rather than silly.

Given the experience on both sides of my family, I am amazed that I have kept as much of my own for as long as I have (though I seems to be getting up to speed of late).<br /><br />What I am totally clueless over is the part about Wendy's and the Wendy's girl.Expatriate Owlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05094406368801045958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-42604698113892779512015-04-21T21:53:09.359-05:002015-04-21T21:53:09.359-05:00Heh, my son had a "eyebrow" ring..

Not long after we got back it just kinda disappeared...Nobody was "mean" about it, but sure made him self conscious.

My hair was so long I usually kept it braided. Drove my parents nuts. Many years later, I am a good conservative gun owning American. My Kid (31 this year) put me through some changes too. Dyed his hair bright blue the night befiore his first day at school out in the valley. Now though he is a solid citizen, chef, and turned out decent as the result of guidence from me, and other close friends and relatives that saw through the "rebellion". Just be there to provide the guidence.Jesse in DChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13476405390310290790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-47000291126251998262015-04-21T18:10:50.105-05:002015-04-21T18:10:50.105-05:00Who's he hanging out with generally tells the ...Who's he hanging out with generally tells the story bro, but as I recall from the theory of adult learning the average males brain isn't fully developed until age 25.Sport Pilothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04862280966739841769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-57631196212609245462015-04-21T16:40:53.708-05:002015-04-21T16:40:53.708-05:00No help here ML!No help here ML!Keadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09982258812373127063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-37794670626333956572015-04-21T16:37:02.604-05:002015-04-21T16:37:02.604-05:00Nope!

Therefore, if they have no brains and no cool, how can they explain something done by persons with all the smarts and all the cool in the world. Can't be done. <br /><br />However, there will come a time in most teenager and parent's life where the pendulum swings back towards the middle and both parties regain a modicum of brains and couth with respect to the other. That day happened for me on May 19th 2011 when my Daughter landed at Dakar in Senegal. That, however, is another story.juvathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09096708575138552532noreply@blogger.com
