That article ran chills up my spine. To think that people like that even exist. How could anyone be like that to a child?? (Not that age makes any difference). OMG!! So, so sad! Sandi, I am praying that Paul NEVER has to deal with such stupidity. It pains me to even think that anyone could be so cruel just because of the color of someone's skin. I know that Momma Bear is going to do everything in her power to protect ALL of her children from such ignorance. ((((MAJOR HUGS)))) Oh my! That article ran chills up my spine.

Oh - look at her (Destiny). Where is she from? Hmmm... she is so much darker than my granddaughter. So I think she must have a granddaughter from Ethiopia, too....NO --- Bulgaria. What? That is like the dumbest thing to say ever. She is so much darker than my granddaughter from a totally different country. Like who cares how "dark" she/they are. (dumb bunny!)

SERIOUSLY? Sorry to hear of the racism by people who prefer Ethiopian children over white, too. ARGH!..we don't read about that often and what are people thinking? Frightening for ALL of our children. Stupid is exhausting and I agree Mama Bear here is gonna struggle with finding appropriately outraged and balanced response on this along with keeping cool on the matter when/if it seems best.
