There were only black babies left at walmart, what would you do?!?
Picking up last minute things and my daughter had her own money to spend from her grandma for xmas, so there are this particular baby she wanted but they only had black ones.
So out loud, as if she had no clue she that maybe shouldn't say this so loud.. (but why not really)
"Awe I wish they had a white baby, Mom, do you see any white babies"
I was appalled - immediately looking to the left and right thanking God there was no one in the isle. I told my husband and then thought...if there was a black person in the isle and I made eye contact with them, what would my reaction have been?
He says I would quietly apologize and say I didn't teach her that way.
But I don't know what I would have done. Shrugged and smiled? I'm sure my eyes would have been wide and maybe an uncomfortable smile. I have no idea. What would you do? Would you say anything?
