[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, because people are reasonable and when you tell them where you come from, they integrate it. HOWEVER, I am the author of the thread about a staff member at my child's school who insists on assuming that every vaguely Asian-looking kid is Chinese. She doesn't even ask! She calls my daughter's friend "the Chinese girl", and has kept it up, asking my daughter whether they can talk to a Chinese exchange student under the assumption they share the same native language. She just doesn't seem to be all there, to be honest. After a year of this, the kids are getting irritated (none of them are of Chinese heritage). [/quote] This is very common with Asians. Many Americans are ignorant when it comes to the rest of the world. Our news coverage feeds into that (every situation is presented in light of our interests). [/quote]
