People never cease to amaze me. Not ever. My BEST FRIEND gave her mother her diary address so that her mom could see her new dreds - she'd posted a pic. Her mother then took it upon herself to share said address with a third party, who then went to the page and left comments. Now, in that situation, I'm not sure which I dislike more - the mom or the third party. Either way, their actions were egregious, IMO.

Furthermore, my friend's mom freaked out about her hair - her HAIR. These types of things have bothered me for a while about this woman. Please, anyone, explain this to me - your daughter doesn't do drugs, nor does she drink. She doesn't participate in a life of crime, nor does she regularly participate in actions that hurt other people. She works full time, is independent and well educated and has some interest in furthering her education beyond that already received. Basically, she has turned out to be a charming, intelligent, funny, and industrious human being; she is capable of empathy and compassion to a degree few people ever reach, she makes informed decisions about the world around her and she occasionally contributes her time and energies to further causes in her community; i've watched her step into leadership roles when necessary and i've watched her bring out the best in children, including my own - and your objection to her is that you don't like the way she looks. THE WAY SHE LOOKS?! Well, of course, b/c in the scheme of things, that really is what matters, right?! Unbelievable.

My daughter is 3 1/2 and I question every single day of her life whether I'm a good mom - but I have to say that observing some other mothers makes me at least grateful that I already keep my eye on the big picture and I won't spend a whole lot of time concerned with whether or not I like the divine's body and how she chooses to fix her hair.
