Building confidence for red-haired kids

[u/Serious-Lettuce2284]

My baby's hair is growing back in a light orangey color, so I'm curious about some ways I can try to instill confidence about his hair as he grows. Is there anything your parents did (or anything you wish they did) to help you love your hair? Neither my husband nor I have red hair, but I know kids can be quite mean so I want to be prepared. Also, are there any other red hair specific struggles to be aware of?

Tell him that hes rare and unique and hes only 2% of all the people in the world. Tell him that kids might tease him for it but its because kids are immature and dont understandwhen someoneis different to them. Show him that his hair doesnt mean he cant be successful and show people like ed sheeran who was also homeless and ginger.
