“Kid, if it weren’t our baldness, it would be something else. If you all of a sudden sprouted a new head of hair, you would find something else to condemn yourself about. It isn’t your hair that you’re worrying yourself about. It is ridicule, plain and simple. You’re afraid of being viewed as flawed and imperfect. Let’s work on that and leave this foolishness; but let’s leave your hair out of it.”
