Poll: Don't you dare cut my child's hair?

Jared Nicoll Reporter from Kapi-Mana News

A city councillor raised an interesting point on social media earlier this week about whether or not it was ever appropriate for other well-intentioned people, perhaps friends or family, to give their child a haircut. How do you feel about other people deciding when your kid should have a haircut? Is it a big deal if a family member does it with good intentions? Or is this treading on mum's toes?
