[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m pretty strict but I don’t censor what my 11yo listens to. We are white and DD is AA. She has started listening to rap music and music by primarily black artists. There is a lot of inappropriate language but I think she’s trying to identify with that side of herself. She doesn’t repeat the language and I haven’t seen any inappropriate behavior. Let it go OP. [/quote] Just for the record, that is an unhealthy way for her to "identify with that side of herself." Our children unfortunately equate poor behavior, images, and language, with being AA. Just like PPs have said, I talk (as best as I can) about the unhealthy languages and images. In their current music, but I also play a full swath of music for them to hear the culture - everything from jazz, reggae, R&B, classical, so that they are influenced by a full(er) experience. Nothing like Stevie W. and some Bob M. to try to balance out the dose of nihilism... [/quote]
