[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up with just a few non white kids in my all white school and so many of us did this to non white kids. And we weren't trying to be racist. But kids don't have the words and can't really discuss how having someone different from them is a new experience and they aren't sure about the person and they are interested. If they tell their parents, they get shutdown with don't say that or don't treat them different, and so on. So they just keep it inside and eventually their curiosity leaks out in random comments that end up hurting your DD. And sure kids have been told not to ask but they are still curious and have less impulse control than adults. Some of the suggestions from the posters are good and would probably help your DD friend to tone it down. [/quote] Now I'm confused. Is frenemy truly being nasty or just trying to bring in curious thoughts?[/quote]
