A mum’s powerful post about the friendship and innocence between her son and his friend was shared over 95,000 times on Facebook with users across the globe calling it ‘a beautiful story.’
It started when Lydia’s son Jax wanted to look like his friend Reddy and with his haircut appointment looming, he asked for it to be shaved short. Because that’s the only difference between the two little boys, right?
Jax was excited for school on Monday, because thanks to his new shaved hair, his teacher would not be able to tell the difference between him and his best friend. We all remember wanting to confuse our teachers...
Jax’s mum told the story because ‘if this isn’t proof that hate and prejudice is something that is taught, I don’t know what is. The only difference Jax see’s in the two of them is their hair.’
Someone make the adorable cheeky chappies in charge of the world please? They already are more switched on than a lot of people at the top (naming no names) and they're ONLY FIVE YEARS OLD. And those smiles.
