echaos,
wow!!!! what a bummer....but you know you have to say something...
i would not end a friendship over it...people are going to say inappropriate things all the time, ITs unavoidable, and liam will find that out soon enough...as all our kids will find out as they get older...
but we all have our jobs to do as parents, and thats to teach diversity, like crick said....
maybe say something like.......
"So, remember when you mentioned the foreigner comment, well it really kinda bothered me, we are trying our best to raise liam without any prejudice, so if there is away that you can kinda keep those opinions to yourself, i would appreciate it...
Kids have big ears, and you never know when they are listening,
I really dont want to be put in a situation that i would have to explain to liam why our friends say things like that, never alone strangers...."
it just might open up something for discussion...but what a thing to hear from your FRIENDS.....
I think you can move on from the comment, but the REAL issue is , you wont be able to forget...
im sorry...that stinks...
