Father Forces Daughter to Shave Her Head After Bullying a Chemotherapy Patient—The Internet Is Divided
Mistakes are part of growing up, but some can come with long-lasting consequences. Recently, a father made headlines when he took drastic action to punish his 16-year-old daughter for bullying a classmate battling cancer. The teen had mocked a girl who had lost her hair due to chemotherapy, even going as far as ripping off her wig.
In response to his daughter’s lack of remorse, the father gave her a harsh ultimatum: lose all technology or shave her head completely. She chose the latter.
As a single father with full custody, he felt the punishment was a tough but necessary lesson in empathy—especially given that his own mother passed away from cancer. While many on social media have slammed the punishment as cruel and humiliating, others see it as a powerful teaching moment. Despite the backlash, the father stands by his decision, believing it will help his daughter grasp the hurt she caused.
However, the daughter remains defiant and has yet to apologize. The father, holding firm on his stance, says he would consider buying her a wig—but only if she shows genuine remorse.
