[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How old is your child?  Do they go on a regular basis?  Manicure and/or salons?  Gel on a regular manicure?

My thirteen year old asked for gel nails over spring break. Since we didn’t go anywhere I allowed her to get it but I told her a) I don’t like gel / Uv light for a young girl never mind getting regular nail polish manicures., b) She is free to do her own nails at home.  Up until now I only allowed her a manicure for her birthday, Christmas time, a special treat when her friend from California visits her.  In the past, it has never been a big issue.  C) if she wants to continue to get her nails done she has to come up with the money herself.  She’s upset because I won’t allow her to go to a salon on a regular basis and that I won’t pay for any of it with exception to Xmas, birthday, and when her California friend visits.

I pay for haircut at a very ice salon but no hair coloring or highlights.  Am I being mean? She’ll be 14 this summer.  What do you do in your family? Do you slow gel? Do you pay for it?  Am so being over the top by saying no highlights until she’s sixteen and has her own money to do it?[/quote]

Never.
