MY DAUGHTER TOLD ME NOT TO MAKE A FOOL OF MYSELF AFTER I FULFILLED THE DREAM OF MY LIFE

I’m 65. Growing up, I was always under strict rules—first from my parents and then from an abusive husband. But now, finally single with my kids all grown up, I decided it was time to do something just for me. I’ve always dreamt of adding a bit of brightness to my life, so I dyed my hair pink, feeling like I’m embracing the winter of my life with some warmth.

But the moment my daughter saw me, she was furious. She yelled, telling me I looked ridiculous and that I should stay OUT OF SIGHT.

Is it really too much? I’ve never felt so happy and free. But maybe she’s right, and I should act my age instead.
