Jamie Pereira that is extremely offensive. I know you were just making a joke....but as the parent of an adopted child, not only do I not treat him or love him any differently than my natural child, but I would never portray being adopted as a negative thing. Adoptive families have enough emotional hurdles to go through without the negative stigma. Children are adopted because the parents have endured much heartache and have prayed for a baby for so long... they are cherished, wanted and loved. The ignorance of your comment makes me very sad. I wish the grueling process of adoption had more awareness given to it.

How Do I Make My Hair Stand Up for Crazy Hair Day?
To make your hair stand up for a gravity-defying crazy hairstyle, use hair gel, hair spray, or hair mousse. Follow these steps:
- Apply a generous amount of the styling product to your hair.
- Use your hands or a comb to shape your hair into the desired style, lifting it upwards.
- Use additional pins or clips if needed to hold the style in place.
- Finish with a strong-hold hairspray to keep your hair standing throughout the day.
Gravity-defying hairstyle takes much time and effort, but it will surely fetch many compliments. This is not an easy Crazy Hair Day idea for girls, especially if they have long hair. It’s more suitable for kids with short hair.

My favorite ever. Had a student get off the bus. His aunt had pinned one single hair extension row to the front of his head and then pulled it back into a ponytail. I could not stop laughing.
