Even though I am relaxed I do agree with you.
I think the point people are trying to make is that it is a decision that girls need to come to on their own. You have a whole generation of black girls that do not know what their natural hair looks like or what natural hair can look like. That is an issue.
That always gets me. I can't understand how that even feels. I've been natural my whole life so I've had a couple of decades to get to know my hair. I can't imagine how difficult it must be to not know what your real hair looks like and then have to find out in your 20's or 30's or 40's. I can see why so many people who transition to natural only stay natural for a year (or less) and then relax again.
I would never want to put my child through that.
