I just forced my 14 year old to get a haircut. He hates me.
My rule is that he can have his hair the length he likes as long as he keeps it clean and he runs a comb through it when it looks like he has bed head.
So, it's a fail on both counts. He doesn't want to wash it and daily tries to sneak out the door without combing it. He tells me it's the style. I tell him that his Dad happens to work at the same highschool he's attending and can see that the other kids have washed and combed and cut their hair.
So, he was given a short hair cut. If he refuses to care for it I have to.
I'm an all-purpose word geek: I write (blogs, plus a book), I edit (medical stuff), I read (mostly blogs and magazines...that stack of unread books glares at me from beneath the dust), and I play with words (crossword puzzles are a strong favorite).

He's gorgeous! Love the hair.
Wow! I had no idea that Lake Michigan could be so beautiful in December!

God I hope this phase is over soon.
Glorious hair indeed. Jealous.
I'm just trying to wrap my mind around the concept of being able to MAKE a kid get a haircut.
