Babysitter Dyes Girls’ Hair Pink, Grandma Loses It Completely: “Oh Babies … Did She Hurt You?”

A good babysitter doesn’t just keep kids safe, they also know how to make sure they’re having fun.

So when this Redditor offered to dye the hair of the 3- and 5-year-old girls they were watching pink (with their parents’ full permission, using temporary, washable dye), it seemed like a harmless way to play dress-up.

But the kids’ grandma didn’t see it that way. The moment she saw their new look, she completely lost it, accusing the babysitter of crossing a line and calling both the police and CPS.

Scroll down to see how everything unfolded—and how the babysitter decided to respond.
