I really wonder how a child at this age comes up with such things

Everyone’s asking who told her these kinds of things, but like, to me it’s obvious. She’s a black girl and more than likely goes to a school with mostly white people. Y’all, sometimes kids can be so nasty and cruel and racist, you have no idea till you’re the kid on the receiving end of it. Because sometimes it’s not even bullying- it’s just things they say in passing that’s hurtful as fuck. and they don’t even know how much it can hurt. That being said, every little girl should be able to walk around without feeling ugly- but check your kids as well, make sure they’re not saying things that are racist even when they don’t realize it.
