[quote=Anonymous]I'll ignore the crazy above and just say to OP, who is here trying to do the right thing, that I would focus on how your child will think in the end, not just on what he says. If he thinks correctly about race, what he says and how he treats people will follow. This isn't like teaching a child not to hit with a stick. Kids know why they shouldn't do that and they don't get mixed signals. Your child has overheard some adult or older child saying something racist and that is confusing to him. If he's observant he already knows or will one day know that some people don't believe we are all equal. Laying the groundwork against that should be your goal. With you as his mom, I'm sure he'll get there sooner rather than later. [/quote]
