An American father sparked a heated debate after punishing his 15-year-old son for mocking a classmate with cancer.
When the teen refused to apologise and said it was “funny,” the father gave him a choice: apologise or shave his head. The boy chose the shave.
What was meant as a lesson in empathy quickly turned emotional, with the teen reacting angrily and distancing himself from his family.
Now, people are divided—was it a necessary wake-up call, or did it cross the line into humiliation?
