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?

Ask for a discount.

this thread is what is wrong with the world today. Fuck all this PC bullshit! It's not racist for a kid to want to play with a doll the same skin tone as they are. Now if your daughter didn't want to play with real people based on their skin then it might be a problem.

Girls play with dolls acting as if they were their own babies. How confusing would it be for a child to act as a mother of a black, yellow, or green baby?

Her BFF in school is Black. My husband doesn't want me to encourage her to come over :(

How do you think you would have reacted though if there was a black mom next to you buying her daughter a doll? Just smile and nod? Not make eye contact at all?

lol you apparently didn't read the whole post.

Besides the doll was ugggly. I'm glad they didn't have it in white either.

Of course I didn't, this is GFY.

print the picture and wrap it. how old is she? say the baby is getting a ride to the house will take a few days for her to get there. :1orglaugh buy one of those toy baby cribs put the wrapped photo in there. :2 cents::2 cents: it will be fun! :) hunt down one of the white babies after christmas! win win https://gfy.com/images/icons/heee.gif

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh tis true!

She's freeking 7, almost 8!

But that's a cute idea.

well if the black mom was smart she would laugh about it.. but today more than likely she might give you a look and that is sad.. But I wouldn't feel bad at all esp since like you said her bff is black.

I say that you need to quit making up shit that never happened.

:2 cents:

Yah I would have just died really. Glad no one was in the isle. I never mentioned anything to her about it.

You know, I almost took a photo of the 5 dolls they had left. Now I'm wishing I did just for you pumpkin. :winkwink:

Then I was afraid someone would turn the corner and see me taking pictures of the black dolls, and get mad.

The tragedy is that you shop at Walmart.

where the hell did they get those kids from??? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Why? Everyone shops at walmart! They had alllll my stocking stuffers just about and all the little cheap stuff that I needed to get for people I don't care much about =)

And some really awesome headphones too!

That makes me so sad. :(

Agree 100% with this!!! Fuck all the libtard PC dumbassery! Find the doll that she wants, because there is nothing wrong with that at all!

Wait, she wanted the baby for herself, right? The only thing I am appalled about is your spelling.

:1orglaugh

WTF, she wants a baby; to pretend it is her baby. What color should it be?

half black?

I'm it's not normal if I would have felt weird if there had been a black parent there and she blatantly said that out loud?

And what did I spell wrong? aisle?

Well if it was ME I would not be scared to say something. Say there's a black mom there (or dad). I would turn to them and just go, 'Kids huh?" and smile.

Then if they didn't smile back but wanted to confront me I would just go: "Do you buy white dolls for your kids?" and see where it went from there.

I'm sure security would be called eventually. LOL Happy Holidays!! :)
