  3. expectedbehaviour: mrsgreen22: My daughter = my life :) Here is Sari. She’s the reason that I went natural in the first place…I have TONS of people that ask me all the time what made me want to “go natural” and I tell them that it’s her. I didn’t want my daughter to feel that she was obligated to be anybody other than who she is and that’s HERSELF…I wanted her to know that the only standard that she had to worry about filling was HER OWN….who cares that most people think that hair should be straight and long?! Oh well, hers is thick and CURLY…who cares that the other girls go to the hair dresser to get perms? Her hair is doing just fine with at home care and natural hair care products :) We’re making our own statement to the world that we are who we are and we won’t be changing or altering it in anyway to help you sleep better at night because we’re sleeping just fine. Grandma taught mama to love her skin….mama taught me to love my curves…and I will teach her to love her hair……#knowledge -Shakeria It would actually be wrong of you to put products in her hair i.e. relaxers. I don’t feel inspired by this. She’s a toddler and thus SHOULD be natural. She probably has no idea what the purpose of hair is yet or how it contributes to the female identity. v__vThe things people do to be inspired -__-  You writing what you did makes me question if you actually have kids lol….because people who have kids KNOW that kids are way smarter than what they are giving credit for….children are DIRECT products of their environments …..they hear and see EVERYTHING even when you think they aren’t listening. Ex: I’m always walking around saying to my husband (in an inside joke) that he’s fat. I only tell him that when we get up in the morning and he spends time flexing in the mirror when I ASSUMED my daughter was sleeping…lol….So, she came in the kitchen the other day and told him that he was fat while he was flexing in the kitchen….I gave that example to say that if I were to walk around and talk badly about my hair which I use to do (I’ve always been natural just flat ironed the heck out of my hair) she would have picked up on that like kids do…..kids aren’t BORN to think the way that they do they are TAUGHT to think a certain way…..whether parents teach them bad habits knowingly or not they are learning them…….so to say she doesn’t know just gives her intelligence the lack of credit that it deserves .. ….I raise my 2 kids assuming they already have the intelligence that I know they are highly capable of ……16 years from now we will compare notes and let’s see if I got it right :D
