[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: It's a lot of "We don't have no . . . ". This was the exact type of stuff DC heard at daycare all the time (along with "I be...", "you be...") and he definitely did pick it up from them. I understand what everyone is saying about parents being the biggest influence, and I would like to believe that. But my husband and I do not speak like that, and neither do any of our family or friends, so daycare was the only way DC could have picked up that sort of "grammar." Now he's getting it at DCPS too and it is driving my crazy. Anyone have a successful conversation with a principal about this? I am worried about it coming off as racist.[/quote] Well, let'ssssss seee -- why would it come off as racist? Hmmmmm....do you feel it would seem culturally insensitive because incorrect grammar is a cultural imperative of one particular racial or ethnic group? That very idea is racist, tho I am sure that was not your intention.[/quote]
