No matter how much we want to think our kids are perfect, the truth is that none of them are.
I’m not saying most parents aren’t doing a good job—most are—but childhood is a time for learning, and all kids will make mistakes they might regret later.
What’s most important is not just what happens, but how the child learns from those mistakes and grows from them.
It’s precisely for this reason that we introduce the concept of punishment early: a kid does something wrong and they’re forced to suffer the consequences of said act. It’s teaches them a simple lesson and, hopefully*, they don’t do that same thing again.
Of course, punishments can vary in degrees, ranging from a metaphorical slap on the wrist to methods that the offending child won’t likely forget.
In any case, one dad’s choice for his daughter certainly sits in the latter of those two categories. She was caught making fun of another student at school who had lost all of her hair to chemotherapy. When her dad found out, it’s safe to say he wasn’t impressed.
He decided to take steps to ensure she never did it again. He shaved her head bald, so that she’d know what it felt like to be in her victim’s shoes.
Needless to say, his method of rebuke has drawn plenty of criticism online, but he isn’t phased by any of it. On the contrary, he told CafeMom that he thinks it was a perfectly acceptable reaction.
He also told CafeMom that his daughter is dating the other girl’s ex-boyfriend, which contributed to the drama that played out.
“They were having an argument in class about stupid teenage gossip regarding my daughter’s boyfriend. At some point the other girl mentioned how my daughter’s boyfriend was just using her for sex (this was actually a big shock to me as I had no idea she was sexually active) and called my daughter a slut.
How to remove set-in grease stains from laundry
Grease stains are among the most stubborn to get rid of. Sometimes, if the piece of clothing that got greased isn’t the newest one or one of our favorite, we can just get rid of it by throwing it in the trash, but if we are attached to it, we’ll do everything to save it and wear it again and again.
One way to get rid of the grease stains, which is apparently a very practical one and makes wonders, is using Dawn Platinum Erasing Dish Foam.
And somehow it does make sense. If the dish foam cuts through grease, then what stops it from cutting through the grease left on a fabric?
Using it for this specific purpose is a straightforward process. You simply put it directly on the stain, leave it for around 5 minutes or more, and then wash it with your usual detergent. In case the grease is very stubborn, repeat the process more than once.
What’s best about this method is that it treats grease stains on various materials, including cotton, jeans, and polyester. It also works on old stains.
If you are to try this on delicate fabrics, do a patch test just to make sure the piece of clothing won’t get ruined.
This is an excellent trick that can save you time when doing the laundry, especially if that’s an activity you are not fond of.
