[quote=Anonymous]We are a family of Indian origin. My son is five and he is in kindergarten. For a couple of nights now he hasn’t wanted to eat his (indian) dinner. That’s not unusual, he is sometimes picky so we didn’t give it much thought. Tonight we made his favorite dish and he was still picking at his food. I asked him why he didn’t want to eat and he blurted out that he wished he weren’t Indian. Upon a lot of prodding, he said his best friend at school says “you’re brown, so you’re like poop”. He was very upset and kept saying that he wished he weren’t brown. What do we do now? I know that kids say these things, they’re too young to know any better, but it’s hard to see my son so dejected. I know the mother of the boy, she is the class parent and lives in my neighborhood. We are in the same soccer team as well. Should I talk to her? I don’t want to sound accusatory and create bad blood. Do I talk to the teacher? Help! [/quote]
