What if you had a daughter with beautiful curly hair; and you always made it a point to teach her to be proud of her beautiful natural texture.
One day, your daughter goes to a relatives house and is told by the relative that they want to straighten your daughters hair. Your child is then told lies like "you will like it because it will be be easier to style your hair." Or "It will be easier to take care of your hair when its straight" or "If its straight it will be easier when its time for a trim."
Your daughter, thinking its cool and something new... goes along with the bull being feed to her and comes home with straight hair. You of course do not want to upset your child by reacting unfavorably, but is disappointed that the relative would be so shallow and thoughtless to tell your child that - any thing other than her natural hair is beautiful. And to also put your child's hair through a damaging process of altering its natural state. Other than cussing out the relative in response to this act... lol. What would you do?!?
