After his daughter made fun of a girl with cancer and pulled her wig, her father shaves her head
It’s upsetting when individuals aren’t kind to one another and allow cruelties to take their place. But, unfortunately, our world is full of similar situations in which someone is mocked or has their feelings harmed simply because one individual wanted to.
This is the story behind a Reddit post, which has since been removed. It’s about a father who discovers that his kid made fun of a cancer patient and even pulled her wig. This father was having none of it, and he decided to teach his daughter a lesson in humility as a result. He shaved her head in order to make her feel even a tiny little bit of what that girl was going through.
He wrote on Reddit about his post:
“My ex-wife and I have a 16-year-old daughter together of which I have full custody (she has moved on with her new family)… My daughter recently got in trouble at school for making fun of a student that lost her hair from cancer treatment. Including pulling off her wig.”
“Apparently there is some pre-existing bad blood between the two of them, but I don’t think that even begins to excuse her behaviour.”
“At some point the other girl mentioned how my daughter’s boyfriend was just using her for $ex (this was actually a big shock to me as I had no idea she was $exually active) and called my daughter a sl*t. That’s what escalated the situation and resulted in the wig incident. Supposedly they have been arguing in class ever since my daughter started dating the guy in question. Basically just stupid teenage ‘he said she said’ nonsense.”
He gave her two options: he could throw away all of her equipment, or he could shave her head.
“I will throwaway every single piece of electronics she owns and never buy her another again (this was just to coerce her into choosing option 2).”
“She will go to the hairdresser and get a cue ball haircut. As in, a completely shaved head, as bald as the hairdresser can do.”
“Everyone thinks I went way overboard. Her mother went ballistic at me saying it will make her the target of b*llying (kind of the point, teach her some compassion),”
