[quote=Anonymous]My DD feels like this because gatekeeping moms of kids of the same ethnic heritage as her were talking trash about kids who were kids of 1st and 2nd gen parents. In our case, we are from pretty much the same place but very different cultures and generations. The more recent immigrants and expats speak a different language than we do so there are cultural barriers between us. The kids would repeat stuff to her at school, especially during our holidays, and taunt her by saying that she wasn’t the ethnic background we are and that it wasn’t her holiday. It is not surprising that she feels uncomfortable around kids of her own heritage, because many of them are narrow-minded and nasty. She gravitates towards 1st and 2nd gen kids who are the same race but from different countries/ethnicities/backgrounds. Sorry, OP, but this is pretty normal. [/quote]
