Latest Milestone: Cory got a MASSIVE hair cut!!

Here's the backstory -

He’s failing 3 of his 4 classes, and snuck out of the house this weekend and got caught. Then he made a deal with me… I kept my end, and he didn’t. I gave him multiple chances to fulfill his end. Then I got out the razor.

I explained it to him totally calmly about three times over the weekend. I gave him multiple chances to make good. Then, this morning I just said, “that’s it, big guy. Into the bathroom we go.” He gave me huge puppy dog eyes, but then he followed me. I think he thought I was just going to scare him but not follow through.

I looked at him and said, “We made a deal. You broke the deal. That won’t make ME a liar. I told you these were the consequences. I’m sorry to do it, dude, but you have to learn to live with the consequences when you don’t keep your end of the deal”. And buzzed it all off.

He looks really good, actually. Except for the pouty face.

I did hate to do it, in all honesty. But he HAS to learn to live with the consequences of his choices and actions/inactions. I'd rather he learned that with a haircut than something much more dangerous/damaging.

And yes, it looks like I murdered a werewolf in our bathroom.
