Let’s see, when you’re six, what is the easiest hat to make? A cone. What parent hasn’t seen this hat made by their kids a multitude of times? Six year old wants to make a mask - tape some paper to the front with a hole cut out for the face. Typical six year old.
Now his parents have turned what was a fun, crafty project, made with six-year-old skills and thinking, into something ugly. Shame on them.
Sounds like momma needs to get some help for her neurosis. Probably daddy too.
