   Are you or any of your family racist? Judging from your shock I doubt you are, but you need to find out where she heard it from and why she thinks that way. Next time she comes out with something racist ask her where she got that from, you may find she just had one bad experience with a particular race of person and now she blames the entire race for this one person’s actions – just tell her how wrong that is and if she applied that way of thinking to all people then she probably wouldn’t like her own country either considering I’m sure there has been at least one person who has wronged her in her life.

   Has your daughter got any friends with a similar reasoning? She may be just fitting in with her friends by being racist. I’m not saying that is acceptable at all, you still need to talk to her and get her to realize the fault in her reasoning – racism is never going to be acceptable.

   When my son went through this stage I did a little digging and found some outstanding people in the race that he was bashing – I found great athletes, inventors, academics, artists, actors, scientists, philanthropists and entrepreneurs that he was slandering and showed him how wrong he was being. As it turned out he really respected several of the people I found and totally recanted on prior thoughts.
