“My son came home from school upset because his teacher told him that painting his nails is only for girls, so today I’m taking him to the nail shop!” Christian Shearhod said in a video shared to TikTok on Saturday.Ashton, at a West Hollywood nail salon, proudly shouting, “I want pink!” before sitting down for a full manicure and pedicure service.
Another user wrote, “I’m a girl, and work on cars. My brother-in-law loves the color pink. My son loves his nails polished. The earth still turns the right way.” Shearhod, who is dating a transgender woman and identifies as straight, actively shares videos about his life on TikTok and has over 900,000 followers. Most of his videos highlight aspects of his life, including his relationship, which he said makes him a target for hateful and transphobic comments.
Fire the close minded teacher!!!!! Our kids deserve better!!!!!!!!!
Father must be queer.
This is not news
At least he has a teacher that cares about him…
Pretty sure toenail painting was NOT part of the teachers’ curriculum for that day👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
If the father want to ruin his son's life that his business. My son never paint his finger nails in his life. He knows it's for girls.
Sad
It’s fashion...if you like it wear it.
The teacher was right. What an abusive, transgressive parent
Whyyyyy 🥴🥴🥴🥴
But it's true
Good for dad! This is a curious 3-year-old kid with no real knowledge of gender bias. I love the nail polish! So does he obviously! My son loved this too. He’s 49 and perfectly straight.
It isn't a teacher's place to tell a child that.
Kid should be removed from this father and put up for adoption immediately.
Was his father gay?
I know many men who go
This is on Twitter... Meanwhile, people can't afford their insulin.
weak the man and you will destroy and conquer a nation without firing a bullet.
Shame on that teacher.
Harry Stiles doing just fine.
Teacher shouldn’t have broad-brushed it, esp. w the ongoing debate. Why is this on NBCNews?
Well that would be the Dads choice not the teachers.
My 1st thought seeing painted nails on a man was shock (I'm pushing 80). My second thought was, Wow. He has excellent taste in nail polish.
Now that's great parenting!
I LOVE this father!! God bless you both!!
What a great dad. Passing his wokeness and mental health issues onto his kid. 🤣🤣
Why is this in the news?
Sounds like someone has a mom where a dad should be.
A boy/man painting his nails is like putting on lipstick or wearing a dress, it's effeminate. Maybe the teacher was wrong for telling the kid but he/she is a teacher.
Sad!
How is this news? Do some investigative reporting. Which politician is corrupt, which doctors are unethical and which charity foundation is fleecing people?
Sick.
Figures since he's a cowboys fan.
LoL weird smh 🤦 and we at a point where in this society it’s ok. Society today is piss poor.
Great example of going too far with a child, payback to the parents will be in about 10 years.
It is for girls. Stop doing this shit to young boys.
How did this get published in a national news publication?
Three and in school , Probably both parents have jobs . Happy kid , that’s money baby.
Fuck this shit
How about saying “That is just her/his opinion” and move on? Why video and publicize this if not for attention for yourself?
I don’t care about nail polish at all. Have you ever heard anyone say She’s cute-look at those nails! She’s so sexy with those nails! I can tell she’s a good worker (smart, dependable, honest, etc) because she’s got painted nails. Etc.
FYI, my son loved hot pink until he hit 6th grade. That was over when he realized chicks didn’t dig it.
His dad is a beta
Yeah...Lets normalize the unconventional...put on a dress...get piercing...have tattoo...smoke and take drugs or better yet...dont go to school
LOL.....that'll show 'em dad....lol. 🤡 Punish your son for the sins of yourself. That kid doesn't stand a chance at manhood with a dad like that.
I don’t ever remember a manufacturer of nail polish explicitly stating their product was only for girls.
Here's some real news that NBC fake news media is trying to cover up. Check out how Republican politicians are being murdered in New Jersey by democratic activists. Democratic hate speech is going to start a civil war, hopefully.
Good for the father..hope he told the teacher that they should not teach. They are in the wrong business
F U 🤮
Nonsense father.
Groomers gonna groom
Father is disgusting.
His teacher was right
Paying attention YET ? ScumMedia constantly pushing stories like this🤷♂️ DISTRACTION DO NOT pay attention to China spy balloons Eggs & gas 3Xs it was under trump Biden crimes Shots causing vaccineinjuries they pushed ⏫ ETC NO, PAY ATTENTION to the child painting his nails
You guys are SATAN.
Painting your nails is for females.
Some guys shouldn't be raising boys.
GREAT DAD!
Dads a simp.
Terrible dad
Where is the lie?
Men became feminine when we were convinced to go to baby showers, wear bejeweled blue jeans, buy sweet coffee at Starbucks and get pedicures. What has happened to American men? 🤷♂️
This isn’t news it’s propaganda. Scumbag NBC should probably be covers these spy balloons.
It is for girls. And boys with abusive parents.
Painting your nails is for girls.
That’s actually kinda cute.
👏👏👏Courageous👏 👏👏stunning👏👏👏brave👏👏👏
We do family mani/pedicures when we go on vacation. My adult sons get their toes painted, their sons the same. Who cares? Why should having fun be just for women?
Transhausen by proxy.
and why is this 'news'?
May as well tattoo the poor kid too, to match daddy!
I always let my daughter paint mine. It’s removable paint…whether it’s a kid or an adult is irrelevant. People pushing their own insecurities onto others.
Why make such a big deal out of it, he’s 3 and probably saw his sister with it or whomever like many have said?! Typically “girls” are the predominant users of nail polish so the teacher wasn’t entirely wrong. Why does everything have to be such an issue regarding gender?
'cheered the boy up.' translation: used and confused his son for social media clicks and followers. . .
And of course he got so much praise for it on tik tok and now more ppl gonna do it for for likes and to feel accepted.
HARAM
How ghey...
Wow, boy am I glad I didn't have a dad like that. Terrible.
The teacher is the one with sense. We have a generation of sissies with China and Russia breathing down our throats. Hasn't history proven that only the strong survive!
I wouldn't have done it but I see nothing wrong with doing it for a 3 year old.
That's all fine, I have a big sister and wanted my nails painted at 3. It only would have been crazy if my dad decided I should have my testicles surgically removed.
I have a male neighbour that paints his nails. Not a thing wrong with it, either.
Yay Dad. My youngest always painted his toes since his older sisters did. Nothing to see here folks!
Love this child and this Dad. Bravo!!!
He has a good Dad.
This is not news.
I remember wanting my fingernails painted at that age. it has nothing to do with sexuality, which I was totally unaware of at the time. I just thought it looked cool
Seriously 3 years old 😑
Some love to feminize little boys
The American society is going to hell with the speed of light, and tbh it’s so satisfying to watch 😇
Prediction: Someone in this thread will advocate for this kid to get his junk removed
Good for him. What he does at home is his own business. But he can’t do it at school. It’s a distraction to other students.
Good and in about 15 years when he brings his boyfriend home to meet you don't say a fucking word.
Uh oh. Trumpers are gonna be mad. They don’t think parents should be able to do this for their child.
Woke parents looking for attention. Using children as props
3 year old in school🤔
At 3 years old who cares. Paint his toes. We painted my grandsons one toe because my granddaughter did. I told him girls get their nails painted not boys! 🤦🏼♀️😀😀
Good for him, I don't like strict gender socialization for boys/girls.
So another teacher interfering with a PARENTS RIGHTS WITH THEIR CHILDREN. Left/Right LET PARENTS PARENT!!
When my son was that age he wanted to paint his nails too. Bc his older sister did. He’s perfectly “normal”.
I mean…. Was shewrong though
3 year olds don't have teachers. They have babysitters. And yes, that includes pre-'school'.
Ummm well, the teacher is right.
Posted ad nauseam. NBC has a bizarre fascination with gender dysphoria. Let it GO!
Fatherhood today is a complete joke
I agree with the teacher, daddy wants attention.
So what?
Sarah sanders said it best , it’s a choice between crazy and normal
Why green hair? Chemicals
Parents should be parents not groomers for the freaks pushing this agenda.
The lack of tolerance and inclusion in some of these replies is heartbreaking
So is menstruation, your point?
I, a 6ft male, 280 lbs, leaving the clinic decided to visit the restroom. Not paying attention I headed towards the women’s room. Two employees frantically tried to redirect me to the men’s room. For a moment I thought about continuing into the women’s to test my right to choose
Of course… Now we celebrate child abuse 😔
Even though I’m sad the teacher said that, I love the way this story ended up!
Thank you Dad for listening to your child.
Ruined
Man looking at these comments, im really not hopeful for the future. Yall never heard it things being in the middle and not an extreme or are you guys just conditioned to take each side to the absolute max?
Had Dad tried taking him to a football game?
Good on the teacher. The father is a groomer
common parenting L
Well the teacher is right
Well they are correct. It’s only for girls. Don’t lie to the kid.
You've become a tabloid.
Child abuse
Green hair and painted nail. Enjoy all that therapy you’ll be paying for, “dad”
children should NOT be going to a nail salon, wth is wrong with this guy?
So my guess is pandemic 24 hr home care/school should be only alternative si child only hears your line of crazy? Isn’t this what the woke crowd say should happen? Exposure to all points of view from early childhood on?
What entitlement and privilege! Rather than spending hard-earned money on food, college fund, “parent” spends on mani-pedi, task not done by “parent” and screwing up child’s mind forever. Yet women still aren’t paid same as men for sake position/responsibility
Kid has absolutely no idea what's behind this and it's wrong to use him as a tool in your own protests.
Teacher was right..I'm sure when he's 5, his dad can cut his D off
America is doomed
NBC appears to use a 3 year older as some sort of political pawn.
The “teacher” or childcare worker, clearly needs more education before she should be around children. There is no excuse for what she said.
Poor kid.
Green hair already.
You take a little boy to get his nail polish at the nail salon and not one time the father teaches this little boy that a real man does not polish his nails pink. At what point will we honor God by abiding by His Holy Word? Accept your gender at birth.
The real issue here is that a 3 year old is being raised by a teacher for the better part of the day. If his parents were doing what they’re supposed to this never becomes a problem. Raise your own damn kids.
Ramification of drag queen story time for kids!
Grooming his own kid, oof
I would prefer three year olds be told that nail polish and make-up is for grown ups. With the exception of 'dress-up' days. Failing that, I totally approve of dad assuring jnr that gender norms are bullshit rather than telling him he's probably really a girl. 👏🏼
So many people losing their shit over a kid who likes nail polish. 😂
İ am natural
NBC News everyone.
Wait till hes 4, then he can get his balls pierced.
So stunning 🤩 so brave 😍
Posting this repeatedly won't increase its news value. 😨
The poor kid doesn’t have a chance and he is only 3 years old
Three cheers for this teacher!
Certainly not in agreement with Dad. It's no wonder the world is in the state it's in. Parents letting children led them! Prayerful!
GO, DAD, GO! These little things don't make a man. It's accepted during breast cancer month, but that's it. Well, surprise, breast cancer is not just 1 month. Surprise kid could be a budding artist. Don't suppress a child just let them develop monitor and see where it leads.
wtf
Seems like a smart teacher
💔💔
I had a male student once who loved painting his nails and doing his mom’s hair. He wanted to do it as a career….well until his dad beat that idea out of him 😔I’m glad to see a supportive dad.
It's so crazy to me that someone would say that to a kid. Kids LOVE to color, there's nothing more to think about. He's literally coloring
That's ok if his 'Dad' is a whimp.
This is toxic
It is only for girls you weirdos lol
People lost in the differences between ‘must be’ ‘could be’ and ‘should be’. Don’t agree to ‘must be’ doesn’t mean you should be.
Encouraging deviancy young...
True statement!
Guess daddy wants to raise his son as a girl!
look at his hair color!! , which parents would agree to dye his hair like that not responsible of course. It is not the kid's fault. where are we going? !!!!
Kudos to the teacher
Terrible father!
The cost of your green energy is African Slavery and devastation to the land. Is this OK President Biden? Is Slavery OK? You overlook the cost for your Masters agenda. Brutal African slave labor to mine the lithium used in your green energy batteries. Your such a racist hypocrite
We need more masculinity!
I love this Dad❣️
Little kids like to paint anything . Adult Nail polish and remover has a lot of chemicals - is it wise to use on little children ?
I can't believe this is still a thing. I graduated high school in 2008 and there were multiple guys in my school who painted their nails. Literally no one cared.
The 90s emo bands would like a word
Only going to say it’s a F… up dad
Good Father
My son liked to wear it when he was little. I think my brother did too. It's just nail polish. It is not permanent. Stop making it about something it is not about. Let the boys wear polish.
Seems to me 3 year olds like weird things and should be left alone. Men being men would be someone jumping up on that train by Philadelphia and stopping the rapist instead of taking pictures of it.
Nonsence
That Poor child, he should be given to a good family.
Harry Styles does it
'Your teacher is locked in the gender binary. Overlook her ignorance.'
I think that the father is living his own repressed fantasy through his child
I know of a lot of grown conservative men who wear clear nail polish.
Isn't that so sweet. No baseball for that boy.
The fact that this is deemed 'newsworthy' is a tawdry reflection of NBC's values. 😨
Teacher is right
and MSM promotes Brainwashing
Men feminizing their male kids are at an all time high. Sicko generation.
Pink is a badass color and men who paint their nails can be just as 'manly' as anyone else. There's billions of 'actors' walking around the planet trying to 'look' like something every day. What's important is who you actually are. Perception is not always reality.
Biden’s America
Good for the dad! I get a pedicure, minus the paint every several months. Who doesn’t want their toe nails clipped, feet scrubbed, washed and massaged? It’s great!
Why would you ever assume this three year olds pronouns? What is wrong with you NBC?
Well the father is a cowboys fan so…..
Can't wait to see the tattoos that daddy gives him...
Michael Jordan and other athletes get manicures and pedicures as part of normal hygiene. I often see men in the salon I use. What is wrong with this teacher?
Weak parents
Great father 🫶🏼!!
Hey now, what if he has emotional problems? A future emo.
Just a reminder to everyone angry at the dad, our founding fathers wore powdered wigs and makeup.
Good. It is just for GIRLS.
Remember when men were men
The gay agenda is very real . They're pumping out water with hormone disrupting chemicals . Leading to the rise of feminine and gay men . It's a war on humanity .
This has become the norm, apparently. It seems like every time I go for my bi-weekly mani/pedi, there are more and more teenage boys in the salon than girls. And I'm not talking feminine guys either. Just regular dudes who like their nails painted. To each his own I guess.
Every single person in these replies put on a mom or sister's clothes, jewelry or heels or tried out the blush or nail polish as a kid. Every single one. All three of my kids did. Only one is gay... my daughter...lol
you can paint whatever you want kid
Saw the video, kid looked like he had a blast 😂🥰
Well this kid is screwed
Teacher - 🤦🏻♂️ Boy - 👶🏼 Father - 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
What is wrong with the parents? Green hair and nails painted , the poor kid doesn’t stand a chance. Next it will be face tattoos .
We are doomed
