That "pink haired girl with the eyebrows" looks hilariously funny.
My dad and I were wandering (loitering) around a Bed Bath and Beyond store way back BC (before covid)
He was about 95 I think, and we saw a girl and her mom shopping for college clutter. She had eyebrows exactly like that girls, but blacker and wider. When I first saw her in the store, serious face, loading up the shopping cart with her mom.... I could not believe what I was looking at, and immediately burst out laughing uncontrollably - laughing so hard I was trying to contain it and I really was not able to. My dad looked at me (and he does like a good laugh) and I dragged him over to another aisle and tried to explain the appearance of that girl. So we went out and dad gazed in that general direction. He started laughing too. Then we both needed to leave that section of the store. My daddy said (he is from Holland) those eyebrows were as fat as Hitlers mustache.
Aaah the little things. I think we laughed about that for a whole week. So seeing this on your blog today brought back that memory. when we left the store, both of us were so sore in the stomach from laughing
It would be nice to have tougher kids. My son in laws mom was very spoiled protected and coddled and she ended up raising two rather wimpy sons. Physically they are strong, but mentally they just blow up.
I am "suffering" the consequences of that for the past 10 months.
Your story reminds me of a similar encounter that I had sometime around 2006. My kids were then ages 5 and 3. We were in a restaurant waiting to be seated and there was a teen girl nearby with multiple facial piercings, tattoos and unnaturally colored hair. At the time, such a sight was not as common as it is now. My 5 year old daughter asked me what was wrong with the girl (even a 5 year old in 2006 recognized that something was “wrong” with this girl). I immediately responded that the girl hated her mother or perhaps both parents and that physically hurting herself by branding herself this way was her way of also hurting her parents. Both kids were very interested in this response and asked lots of questions. They are both in college now and they both still bring up this story. What’s more, they tell me that I was right - the people around them who look like this are generally among the lot suffering from some “mental issue”, have issues with their parents and are strange.
What always strikes me strange is the "NoEffOFF" of the badly coiffed tonsure contrasted with those on trendy 'come hither' On Fleek eyebrows. She just comes across as clueless.

The worst thing you do to a good, besides sexual abuse, is to spoil them.
