[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm so sorry that your child and you are experiencing this.  At my son's private school, I experienced this myself.  It was quite hurtful because my son wanted to play with his friends outside of school.  For me, it was just blatant racism, I believe.  I'm African American.  I'm a kind, friendly person, and the children in my son's class love me.  I guess they do because I volunteer a lot.  Anyway, things changed when a Jewish couple came to the school and started inviting our son for play dates.  So, our family and two other families get together about once a month, and it's positive for the children and the adults.

[b]People who have not experienced this type of alienation may not notice or understand.  [/b][u]I hope those who exclude others will think about the example they are setting for their own children.  It can start them on a path of becoming mean-spirited human beings.

OP, hang in there. If things don't improve this year, start thinking of better school communities for your DC and you.

Good luck![/quote]

THIS. x10000

Most of the pp have not experienced this so they just don't believe it exists instead of realizing it does.
