I agree with this. Children rarely notice color until they reach an age where they notice the adults who put an emphasis on this. If we could teach the adults not to pass this behavior on to the children, the world would be a better place.Bianka Walter wrote: ↑01 Jul 2018, 10:30 The fact that Toni is black didn't even register on my radar until this thread. So I obviously felt none of the above.
And I don't think it will for kids either. They just see another kid, it's us adults that notice the colour
Does it matter that little Tony is black?
