[QUOTE="pepperidge, post: 463198, member: 2322"] One thing I sadly realized when my youngest was's J's age was that I unfortunately needed to maintain a much higher level of supervision than other mothers of kids his age. He would always kick the ball the hardest, be inappropriate in some way at the playground, etc... It was exhausting but he couldn't help it. I felt like I always had to be there and be vigilant. I think you are on the right track to get him to apologize for his actions, praise him for that. I am sorry that ethnic bias is such an issue. But as one of hte other posters said, at least people should respect you for doing the right thing. And you will be teaching your son a lifelong lesson that we need to be responsible for actions, even if they are accidents. [/QUOTE]
