Dreadlocks are for Black People
One of the things I love about my children is their hair. My son had very long hair (middle of his back) until the 1st grade. He said the girls loved it and wouldn’t stop playing with it and the boys said he looked like a girl. I discussed with him that I think he would look awesome with dreadlocks. Not missing a beat he said, “Deadlocks are for Black people.”

I'm a happily nappy African American mom of two biracial children. Glad to see you here. Come on in, have a seat, and I’ll fix you a tall glass of iced tea. Let’s talk about this thing called a nappy kitchen.
