Raising Toddler's Hair

Yesterday when I was riding the MRT, I saw somebody with a David Beckham's Mohawk hairstyle. Well, it wasn't really something special, except that this person was only about one year old.
I know that he looked cute and all, but is it really necessary? I know that the boy did not care or understand about his look. Heck, you can make him wear a grocery bag and he still thinks that he is the Brad Pitt of toddlers. So it's the parents who want to show the world how cute their son is, putting hair gel and spiking the baby's hair, while what the baby has in its mind all the time is only how to eat the hair gel.

People are saying that hair products are not healthy and might cause old-age baldness, so I don't know whether it is really wise to put hair gel on baby's head. It might lead the baby straight to Baldyland by the age of 15. Then he will gladly show you his appreciation by sending you to elderly home in Afghanistan when you are old.

But that gets me thinking. When I have a kid, will I also follow them? Putting silly clothes and stupid hairstyle on the baby so that we and other parents can have a laugh, which usually causes the baby to also laugh although he doesn't understand why? I probably will, because it might cheer us up and the baby still cannot protest. And who can blame us? Parents have the power, right?
So let's see in years to come. If you want to know what we did, you can try to contact us. We will be in Afghanistan.
