[quote=Anonymous]First Little House PP here, and yes, the stories were horrid in recalling Native Americans. I'd probably introduce them to my kids -- who are white, so not as personally implicated in the insults -- when they were old enough to read them alone and understand the context, after a serious chat about the history. Teachable moment, etc. While we're pounding on the Ingalls clan, does anyone remember Ida, Laura's BFF, who was adopted by the reverend and therefore always had to be good, lest they send her back. (Clearly, I pored over the series for years.) But WTF, clergyman? [/quote]
