- Well, I am a mom of an almost-2 and I still have my long hair. Anna does
- not pull my hair any more, but it does get yanked quite often when I am
- on the floor playing with my kids.
-
- I don't really remember when the worst of the hair-pulling stopped, though.
- Maybe about 15 months old or so? I think it started happening about the
- same time I got Anna to consistently understand "NO".
