Today, after discussing having our son's hair styled nicely for school, my ex returned him with his head shaved. I didn't realise bald was in style for 4-year-olds. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my 4-year-old son cut half of my hair when I was asleep because he thought I would look better that way. FML
Today, my son told me he needed a haircut. I was thrilled that he actually requested it, since he normally throws a fit over getting them. He described the cut he wants. It's a mullet. FML
Today, while my mother-in-law visited, I asked if she wouldn't mind watching my son for 10 minutes as I had run out of baby shampoo. I came back home to see she had shaved his head completely bald. That was his very first haircut. FML
Today, I went to pick up my daughter from my dad's house. He'd shaved her head bald. "For a laugh." FML
Today, my son gave me a bottle of shampoo for my birthday. I'm as bald as a coot. FML
Today, I asked my dad to give me a haircut. After 20 minutes of "fuck"s and "shit"s, he gave up and just shaved my head bald. I pull off the look so badly that two people I don't even know have already told me I look like a psychopath. FML
Today, I took my 5 year-old son to the barbershop. When the barber had finished with him, I told the barber, "While we're here, I might as well get a trim too." My son then exclaimed loudly inside a very full barbershop, "Dad! You don't need a haircut, you need hair!" FML
Today, I found out, after having my third and last child, that I'm balding. I'm only 23 and quite frankly It's very much noticeable. How did I find out? My four-year-old daughter pointed it out to me, saying, "Mommy, why you shed like the dog?" FML
Today, I had my hair done for the first time in 3 years. I loved it. My boyfriend told me I look like his ex. FML
Today, I got my long hair cut in a short pixie cut. When my five year old daughter saw me she laughed and proclaimed 'You look just like a man!'. That afternoon I got a concerned call from the school. My daughter has told everyone 'mummy has gone away, I now have two daddies!' FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Welp, your ex left you no choice; the only means of retaliation is to send your son back scalped.

Easy to keep clean, at least. Just make sure you put sunscreen on his head...

I don't get it. Shaved heads, also known as buzz cuts, are completely normal haircuts. I'm sure OP is being a little overdramatic with calling the child bald.

Op and her ex talked of styling the hair. Op didn't give consent for it to be cut off and obviously wouldn't have if asked. And given op's name it seems ex did it on purpose because of the knowledge op didn't want it cut off.

Kids aren't pawns but they aren't pets either, you shouldn't be stylizing your kid before he knows what he wants, young kids should have natural messy hair, they can worry about what look they want when they become self aware and decide whether they want to look cool or classy or pretty or stylish or stay messy or go bald

My question is were they the ex before or after they came home and the child had a shaved head
