Me: We need to cut your hair.

D: Yes. Ruby told me this: If you don’t cut your hair, it will all fall off and you’ll be bald!

Me: That’s interesting, but not right.

D: It is! Ruby never jokes or lies or fibs.

Me: That’s good, but it’s still not right; your hair grows through your scalp – the top of your head – it won’t all fall off just because you haven’t cut it. You wouldn’t be able to see very well if you never cut your hair though would you?

D: No. How do YOU see?

Me: I have a fringe – this short bit at the front.

D: You’ll have to cut it soon though , otherwise it will grow and grow and go onto the floor.
