White Boy Gets Same Haircut As Black Best Friend To “Confuse” Their Teacher

Kids are born with pure hearts and it’s always amusing (and touching) to observe them demonstrate love and kindness in many different ways. Case in point, 5-year-old Jax Rosebush wanted to get a haircut exactly the same as Reddy, his best friend, so that they could pull a prank on their teacher.

Now the catch here is that the two boys aren’t exactly of the same race – and that’s what makes this story really heartwarming and beautiful.

Countless netizens were touched with the purity and innocence of the two young boys.

Lydia Stith Rosebush, the mother of Jax, wrote a post on Facebook to share about the boys’ prank plan. She shared:

“(Jax) wanted his head shaved really short so he could look like his friend Reddy. He said he couldn’t wait to go to school on Monday with his hair like Reddy’s so that his teacher wouldn’t be able to tell them apart. He thought it would be hilarious to confuse his teacher with the same haircut,” Lydia said.

“The only difference Jax sees in the two of them is their hair,” the proud mother pointed out.

The post eventually went viral and generated a lot of positive reactions on social media with many netizens commenting that, yes, they do look like twins.

Others commented that this is a fine example of “parenting done right.”

“Don’t let no one change your hearts,” wrote another netizen.

Indeed, we can all learn a priceless lesson about friendship and acceptance from these youngsters.

Imagine the difference it would make if everyone of us would learn to see others beyond color, race – perhaps even gender and religion – just like these boys do.

Kudos to Jax and Reddy for their awesome friendship. Also, our hats are off to their great parents!
