Reece the independent one

Well, now that Reece is almost 5 (OK, 4 months away) he has a opinion about everything. Before, we could make or force him or even bribe him to do something WE as parents needed from him or for him to do. Now, he is telling us what he wants to do. He really needs a haircut (I hate long hair on boys) but he is telling us not to cut it because he loves his hair. What to do? Do you make him cut it and create drama or do you let him make this decision on his own? It does not bother me that much, but its weird since I am used to him having a shaved head. For now, he has won, but when do you decide what is right? I mean, can't he have a opinion too? It is his body and its not a major issue.... do you relent?

Anyway, that is where we are right now. In the middle of our own family dilemma. Pics to come this week, just extremely lazy right now. :)
Have a good Thanksgiving!
