[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another thread made me realize that I may need to talk to my child about the n word.  [b]We are Latino (only mention this to indicate that my kid is not black, which I think is relevant).  [/b]What age/grade is a good time for this discussion? Also, do you say the word when discussing it with your kid? [/quote]

You can be black and Latino.  Do you really not know this?  Have you ever been to the Dominican Republic?  Puerto Rico?  Brazil?  Any number of other countries with a large black population in Latin America?[/quote]

👆🏾tell me you are white without telling me you are white. [/quote]

Yup[/quote]

Not only is the "tell me you are blah blah" a tired and trite phrase, you're an idiot.  All three of you. Why would you think that stating you are Latino to indicate your kid is not black makes any sense?  You're all just dumb, or 8.[/quote]

What would you have preferred she said, Chicano?[/quote]
