[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is she aware that she is "different"? [/quote]

Sometimes. She is aware that she does not speak Spanish like many of her friends. She also knows that she has different hair. Other than that, no.[/quote]

[b]Aren't latino's white? [/b]

Did anyone come to her birthday party?[/quote]

NP. Yes, Zoe Saldana, Jimmy Smits, Rosario Dawson, Rosie Perez, and LaLa Anthony are white. [/quote]

Race and ethnicity 101 time.  Latinos can be multiple races.  You have Latinos from Spain who look basically white; and you have Latinos from the DR who look basically black; and you have Latinos from Mexico who look indigenous.  The new trend in collecting data on Latinos is to let them indicate their Latino ethnicity and chose a race or nationality as well.  [/quote]

Just saw this in one of the first pages. So it's obvious that OP's mislabeling has been confusing folks from the very beginning.

Why not simply fix the mistake? Too much for OP's ego to acknowledge that her kid is not the only white girl in her grade?[/quote]
