My oldest daughter was about 5 or 6 when Joakim Noah (her fav player on our bball team) played for us and we made our title runs in basketball. She saw during one of the cutaways the other team's cheerleaders making fun of Noah's looks. I remember her asking me point blank "Dad, what are they doing to him?" So I told her the truth, making fun of the way he looks. She thought about what I said for a few seconds, got tears in her eyes, then said, "But he's just a person like they are?"
Good on you Queen, good on you.
Forgive my ignorance, but what's his condition? I thought he dealt with alopecia?One is an actual physical health condition. The other is Peyton Manning.
Alopecia is an autoimmune disease.Forgive my ignorance, but what's his condition? I thought he dealt with alopecia?
That's what I thought. Alopecia his reason for the no eyebrows, not the enlarged forehead. You can see where his eyebrows would be, if the hair regrows, and his hair line on top of his head is normal. He just has a larger forehead than most, kinda like Peyton.Alopecia is an autoimmune disease.
Alopecia causes hair loss, I'm gonna go ahead and say his hairline has receded due to this and that's part of the reason his forehead appears larger.That's what I thought.

I agree with you about not making fun of people because of something out of their control, but I don't think anyone is making fun of the lack of eyebrows.
There are different effects of different kinds of alopecia. None of which I think contribute to the larger forehead. Some people just have big foreheads.Alopecia causes hair loss, I'm gonna go ahead and say his hairline has receded due to this and that's part of the reason his forehead appears larger.
By all means, if you want to make fun of the guy go for it. I just think it's in poor taste on this one.
So losing your hairline does not increase your forehead size?There are different effects of different kinds of alopecia. None of which I think contribute to the larger forehead. Some people just have big foreheads.

His forehead appears fairly normal here, maybe a tad large but not something I think anyone would make fun of. Damn sure doesn't look the same as it does now.
Heads continue to grow.
To your point:
