[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree with 16:10. Looking for 'diverse' schools doesn't mean there will be no racial animosity. You fill find plenty. Help your kids find kind, supportive friends (of any race) and don't worry about it.[/quote] :roll: [/quote] I'm the PP who you're responding to. What exactly in the post you quoted are you rolling your eyes at? Finding supportive friends? Another biracial poster who agrees that schools with 'diversity' don't shelter you from people with racial animosity. [/quote] And no one is saying that, no matter how many times you try to make the conversation about that. Racial diversity ensures that your child does not feel isolated as the only one who is different.[/quote] DP. Wake up pp-- 1) I do not believe her school will be lacking in racial diversity, that's her worry in her head, (2) racial diversity is not needed to not feel isolated (3) everyone is different and accepts each other except for those minorities who self-segregate. It is uncool to see kids decide they have to eat lunch with the other AA kids because they feel disloyal if they don't. WTF? For kids willing to mix it up, not an issue. [/quote] NP here, I'd love to know which school you're referring to. [/quote]
