[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The question isn't "extremely offensive" as some other posters put it. At most, it might be a bit rude. For kids under 10, questions that would be considered somewhat rude as adults are normal behavior. It's a normal part of growth and does not equate rejecting them as people or bullying. It's just a question. Our baggage as adults is coloring this conversation. It's silly.[/quote] This is a comment from someone who I would guess has never stuck out in any significant way from the norm. I agree kids should get a lot of leeway. They're figuring out the world and sometimes they say rude things. We, their parents, should help them out. But it's not silly. Kids who get asked these questions immediately get the message...you're different, you're weird. It all matters and it adds up. [/quote]
