Will a Haircut Get Your Children to Behave?

We have all been to a barber as young men at some point in our lives, even if that barber was an aunt or an uncle. But did you ever have to go as punishment?

Nowadays it seems children are waiting with a cell phone in hand to call Child Protective Services if you even think about spanking them with a belt. If that is the case for you or someone you know, a suburban Atlanta barbershop may be the place for you!

Three days each week, Rusty Fred, is open for business in Snellville, Ga., for parents to bring their misbehaving children in for the "Benjamin Button Special." The embarassing haircut wont cost you a dime either. Frederick and his team of barbers offer this service free of charge!

The haircut resembles several famous people, Captain Stuebing from the Love Boat, George Costanza on Seinfeld, or if I were to let my hair grow out, me. For a 40-year-old man, this haircut wouldn't be a big deal, but for a young adolescent, you can imagine the hours of teasing from peers on the playground at recess.

The haircut came about when Frederick's own son, Rushawn, saw his grades slip in school. After the trim, his grades apparently skyrocketed, and the old man haircut was attributed to part of the sucess. He has already had one parent take him up on the special, and several more are interested.
