Babysitter cuts neighbor's 6-year-old daughter's hair without her permission, gets upset when mom revokes babysitting privileges: 'Chopped off 8 inches of her beautiful curly hair'

Cutting one's hair is a big deal in my book. You don't just go doing it whenever and wherever you want to. Cutting your hair requires time, preparation, and skill. Because as the good book of Fleabag once said, "Hair is everything." Hair is essential to one's outlook on the world. If you're having a bad hair day, you're having a bad day. If you're having a good hair day, anything is possible. You could run for Congress. You could climb Mount Everest. You could attend the Oscars and nobody would blink an eye.

This is why it's so upsetting when bad things happen to good hair. Especially when you're a parent. Because when you're a parent, your kid's hair is like your hair. You're in charge of it, so if anything nefarious happens to it it's on you. This is why we don't let children play with scissors unsupervised. They always go for the hair.
