So the email reads like this. It says, Dear Bert Show, I have an interesting dilemma that I've

0:06.0

never heard discussed on your show. Perhaps you guys would be willing to read my email and let

0:10.0

your listeners give their feedback. I normally listen from 7 to 8.30 every day. I'm the mother

0:15.1

of a beautiful 7-year-old girl who's in the second grade. And as you know, kids can be very,

0:20.5

very cruel. And if one thing sets you apart or makes you a little different, then all the other children will find it and use it to make fun of you. It's very much like it is in this studio. Things never change. Yeah. Yeah, it's not just kids. My seven-year-old daughter has hairy legs. This is an even growth of very dark hair. Of course I see nothing wrong with this,

0:40.0

but the children in her class have noticed it and started to make fun of her for it. There are

0:45.1

obviously several options for me to take. She writes, number one, ignore it and tell her to ignore

0:50.0

the people making fun of her. Two, try to find a company that will do laser hair removal on a child as young as seven. That would be a good endorsement opportunity. Yeah, I've got some pretty good context at ideal image, but I don't think, I don't think this is legal. It can be one of those conversation spots, Bert, you talking to a seven-year-old. Oh, geez. I don't think it it's legal, right? Don't you have to be 18 at least?

1:13.1

I would assume.

1:13.9

I hope so.

1:14.7

Yeah, I think so.

1:17.7

Use a hair removal or shave her legs for her.

1:22.5

I should say use a hair remover.

1:25.0

Or for teacher how to use the hair remover or shave her own legs. No, not a seven. No, no, no. When did y'all start shaving your legs? When I started middle school, I wasn't allowed to in elementary school at all. I wasn't allowed to. And I went in and took my moms and, like, did it myself the first time. I didn't even ask for permission.

1:45.1

And I cut myself up completely. I still had scars. What age was that? What age was that? What was that? Maybe like 12 or 13, something like that. Yeah. I still have scars from your first attempt. Oh, really? Shaving. Seriously. I think guys do that, too. The first time you shave is with your dad's razor.

2:03.4

It's always the Adams Appelmaic.

2:04.7

Yep. Oh, really? Shaving, yes. Seriously. I think guys do that, too. The first time you shave is with your dad's razor and you...

2:03.6

It's always the Adams Appelman.

2:04.7

You can never get over that thing.

2:06.5
