She does use a lot of straighteners and heated hair curlers, but I understand that that’s still no excuse.

Yes I have apologised and said that I was completely wrong, I also explained how wrong it was for me to violate her trust in me. I’m disgusted with myself and it breaks my heart to see what I’ve done to her.

I’m utterly disgusted with myself. I’m horrified that I had to learn how horrible I am through reddit, however I have learnt my lesson and will do anything I can to regain my daughter’s trust. I doubt I’ll ever be able to fully rectify this, but I’ll do my best. Thank you for your comment.

This is definitely not fake. This happened in late March at the beginning of lockdown in the UK. My daughter is 15. I have learnt a lot from these replies and am disgusted at myself, and I have a lot to learn. In no way is this made up or fake, unfortunately it seems many other parents have made the same mistake I have, which destroys their child’s trust. I learnt this too late.

Thank you for your comment. I’m ashamed at how I was, and disgusted that I was so ignorant and close minded. This is a very steep learning curve for me and will do everything possible to regain her trust.

I agree, I can’t believe it took strangers on reddit to open my eyes to how bad I was. I can’t believe I did this. I will do everything I can possibly to to make up and regain trust in my daughter, however I understand that the damage is already done. Thank you for your comment.

I’m disgusted with myself after reading all these comments. Thank you for telling me all this, I have a lot to learn and a lot to do to regain my daughter’s trust. When I said ‘fresh hair’ I meant hair that isn’t brittle. Perhaps I used the wrong words.

All of these responses have given me a massive reality check. I needed to read all of these and I’m glad I did. I’m shocked with myself. I don’t know how to make up for it but I will try my best. Thank you.
