Real. Between insufferable in-laws and their unparented children providing constant unholy-o'clock wake-up calls, they are really making me backslide on my "I need to have more grace for kids and the literally-unbelievable amounts of noise they make" bit. Like, holy shit talk about a personal sterilization advertisement...
On the topic of having grace for kids, I also need to do the same, but you ever get triggered by white children who are already showing signs of the bigotry that their parents have imprinted upon them? I really don't have any patience for it, because I know that they're 100% going to grow up to be nasty adults.
i used to be around white children a lot for my moms job and for babysitting. when they are under id say.. 5 i dont mind it. like the kid is asking whats that to the hair on my head, listen im gonna nicely explain to the kid that cant yet speak full sentences that thats my hair, right?.... once they get to ehhh 7 thats when i lose my patience because tell me why these little white children will referrer to me as "hey black lady" or "the black person" i swear to got it will make you want to cuss out a 4th grader
To me, that's a "self"-report on the part of the parents that there are NO Black folk in community with them; 'cause if there WERE, that little snotnosed crackerspawn would know better than to refer to us as "hey black", give a damn how old they are.
but you ever get triggered by white children who are already showing signs of the bigotry that their parents have imprinted upon them?
Oh all the goddamn time. Praise god that's not an issue with the inlaws, I think I'd have crashed out and fucked up the relationship already-- but it is infuriating just how frequently I see that kind of shit for where I live.
Ready to finish up this final stretch of the holidays. My schedule has been all types of screwed up.

yes, white british chilren can be so insufferable and are also probably the most likely source of slurs in daily life
