The Haircut of the Century!

Well had I known my child was so sensitive to getting a haircut I might have thought twice. I cut her hair today so she has bangs again like when she was 2. She looks cute but she FREAKED out, curled up on the bathroom floor crying and was very upset by the change. She didnt even want to look at herself. She was "too scared." She said, "I don't like change and I just want to be me. I dont like haircuts because I'm not me!"

I dont know why but I'm sitting here crying about this because I caused her to be so upset and I guess I feel terrible for that. I didn't know she would react this way and I hate that I triggered her by trying to help keep the hair out of her eyes.

Maybe today will get better, there is no school today so we're going to run out and do errands and I plan on taking the hand held video games with us!

Who ever said it would be easy to be a mom or even including a mom of a great kid with AS.
Dont beat yourself up, these changes are something that K has to learn to deal with. I hope next ime is easier
