[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is probably why the training at St. Pats is direly needed and racism exists because parents genuinely do not know but assume they know and then teach their children what they think is best.

"To make sense of this discrepancy, I’ve spent the past few years researching how white people think about race and racism and more specifically, how white parents verbally and nonverbally communicate racial messages to their children. What I learned was that white parents often refrain from speaking with their children about race, racism and racial inequality. If racial discussions do occur they are characterized by a colorblind rhetoric. White parents adopt these practices because they believe it will help them raise a non-racist child. From a sociological perspective though, white parents' racial messages may do more harm than good."

I don’t need to be “trained,”’on how to think or what to say, thank you, by my children’s elementary school administrators, who have a rather limited world view themselves. I am not an animal nor an automaton. I have my own very valid experiences and opinions on these issues, which I as a parent will impart to my kids. [/quote]
