HAIRCUT
2025-05-21

My wife came back from her trip to Barcelone yesterday. So, today
we plucked up our courage and took the little one to the hair-
dresser. It's always a bit folksy to take him there, because he
hates it. We were treated to tears, screams, an a little tantrum,
even though we took precautions (like having my hair cut before
so he can see what will happen, or having a chocolate as bait).
Fortunately, our hairdresser is always able to deal with him and
everything, eventualy, went smootly. Strange that my son has so
much trouble with the hairdresser; perhaps, given his age and
psychological immaturity, he feels that parts of himself are
being forcibly removed? Is it like that with all young children?

Anyway, yes, that was the highlight of my day.
