Summary: One American student aged 11 years old pulled out his hair and so he became bald. Actually, he pulled out his eyebrows when he was 9 years old but when he became 11 years old, he started to pull out his hair. This kind of action occurs when a man gets stressful or bored according to Dr.Marin Franklin, the professor in Pennsylvania University. He also said that this action can make a man who feel bored interested. Now this boy plays with an eraser. His mother believed that because her son is smart, he got bored in his school.

Opinion: I think it's really addicting to touch hair and head when I get bored or nervous. Sometimes, my hands are automatically touching my hair while studying. Practically I had one friend who is like this boy. Before vacation, he was okay but after vacation, some of his hair was gone. So I ask him why and he said that he continuously pulled out his hair while studying. It was not okay to see it because the skin over the head was really white and smooth. Anyway, I could know that pulling out hair is because he or she gets bored or nervous. Perhaps it'll be helpful when I see children. I will tell the children who pull out their hair while studying or playing games that they are bored or nervous.
