what’s a 6 year old doing with a mohawk?

i think everybody is being a bit crazy here---i would think the overall consensus on FR would be different--- my boys get mohawks every spring since they were in 1st grade- i do it myself and yes i have a husband and he is fine with it, and yes we are bible-believing Christians and i am NOT using my kids to rebel by proxy, or whatever stupid thing somebody mentioned in response this reply. if the school ever suspended my child because of this you could bet i would be all over the news about it---

It was her choice to put her kid in that school. She agreed to follow the rules. The only reason this is a big deal is because the NEA that owns Cleveland media is making it a big deal.

There sure are a lot of folks here assuming they've figured out this lady, her kid, her marital status, her mental state...and much more...from one news item.

A news item create by our ever trustworthy media....

I never thought so many Freepers would be such willing participants in the nanny state.

You would think, but it hasn't been that way here for a very long time. When it comes to a confrontation between a private citizen and a public taxsucking bureaucrat, most freepers cant wait to come running to the defense of the bureaucrat, while trashing the private citizen in every way possible. The more independant and freedom loving the private citizen, the more freepers will defend the person who's paycheck comes with a government seal on it.

Hanging out on FreeRepublic for any length of time one would come away thinking that "conservative" means school uniforms (parental rights, we don't need no stinking parental rights), a love of "authority figures"(aka were from the government and were here to help), and making sure you call anyone under the age of 20 a ""brat", "punk", "hoodlum" or "little darling"(sarcasticly).

Yep, so glad I have a conservative web site to come to.

Agreed 100%, and excellent points from all three of you. I can’t believe what I’m reading here, either. People are trashing this woman and her child over a simple haircut. Mohawks are a popular hairstyle for kids. None of my sons have ever worn one, but I wouldn’t rule it out.
