“To plant you some beard” Is a family “game” where an older male figure like the father or grandfather plants beard to his child/grandchild by rubbing his unshaved cheek to the kids face. The game does not discriminate between male and female kids where often beard is planted onto little girls. It is interpreted as an act of preparation for the harshness of the life to come. Here the game has turned into reality where the child is forced to inherit its father’s “beard”.
