We are an expat family living and learning in Central Costa Rica. Loving and living the Pura Vida! I love to share tips and ideas about un/homeschooling. We have been at it for 30 years and still learning.

Parent Rights
Did you know that as a parent if you get dreadlocks you pretty much give up your rights to tell your kid they look weird? Yeah I did not realize that until after I got the dreadlocks, but I can't really say anyone looks weird anymore.
It is a great way to keep you from being judgmental, just get them and try to say someone looks anything! It just sounds really funny coming out of your mouth with all those fuzzy crazy locks waving around on your head.
Kind of like the saying when you point your finger three more are pointing at you. It has been good for me though, and sure makes me stop and realize how incredibly judgmental I was.
The good news is this was playing Emo pictures and hopefully not a look she plans to stick with long term. If she does, oh well what can I say?
