[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Do you have a Hispanic last name? What was the context of the conversation DD had with this dad? [/quote] [b]Our last name is Spanish, but DD's first name is not.[/b] DD and her friend were at the friend's house with mom, dad came home, friend said [b]"This is Larla"[/b] (or whatever) dad said "I didn't know you were a spic." I never got to meet the dad. I came to pick DD up at the right time and she was all ready, and just came right out to our car. We waved to mom and friend and left. Later on at bedtime, DD asked me about the word, and it all started.[/quote] So why did he say it at that point then (upon hearing her non-Spanish first name)? [/quote] He said it when he saw her, obviously. He didn't realize it because she was probably referred to as just first name in their household. Then he saw her and realized.[/quote]
