I agree and find it terribly sad to see what a maladjusted parent can do to an innocent child.
The mother is setting the child up to be bullied by the other children. The possibilities for ridicule are too tempting to pass up.
Predictability is what keeps societies together. That is why one doesn't do to many things that are weird and make people feel peculiar.
Dirversity is not a good thing no matter how much the pc crowd screams that it is.
