How Teens Feel About Their Mothers and Baby Haircuts, Naturally



On May 5th of this year, I was thrilled to be part of Listen To Your Mother Show/Milwaukee. Aside from the incredible experience of producing and directing a production for the first time, there was room for me to read an original piece in the show. I talk on the natural subject of babies, first haircuts, and who has the say of the timing of said first haircut.

And as if all that weren't enough heaven on earth for one person, the baby of above referenced haircut is now 18, and he passed the LTYM auditions and was cast in the 2013 Milwaukee show. His original piece, again on a very natural subject, that of a technophobic mom who turns to Dateline to keep her son safe on the internet.

How I wish what he shares here was an example of well-written hyperbole.





If you find my family's dynamics addicting, you can watch me here, explaining the rules regarding when, where, how, and who decides your baby's first haircut.

 Enjoy!

  3. Oh the ego protecting! So exciting that we got to "meet" your beautiful 18 year old boy. And "meeting" you with a voice for the first time? Priceless. I loved that story the first time I read it, but to hear you tell it, and the added details...love!

  5. These are both so good. The haircut story and the honor you gave to your mom made me both smile AND tear up (and caused my husband to pause his reading of the sports section - a lofty honor in itself). Also loved hearing your son's take on the "ferocious" love he enjoys from his entourage of mothers.
