Quote From: llama52I amthe veryproud white Nana of 7 Grandkids, 2 half Spanish, 2 half black and 3 white... I love them all without regard of color..they are all the same to me...my 2 half black Grandkids used to say the N word at my home
but no more!!! I told them if I, or anyone else cant say it then they cant either...( I never used the word anyway) I asked them how I could let them say it but the other kids couldnt....so I put a big stop to that.
The other day a black friend of my daughters was here and he said the N word, my Grands told him very nicley that that word wasnt allowed at nana's house, he was very nice and said he was sorry....if everyone would put a stop to this hidious word...( blacks, white or anyone) things would just get a little bit nicer.....
signed....The proud Nana of a colorful but beautiful family!!!
the power of this word (that everyone thinks is so taboo) comes from people that feel the way you do
if you would have told your half black grand kids that everyone in this great and (sometimes) free country has a right to say it then they would be much better equiped to deal with the world in stead you have them living in this make believe land of nanas house where the word doesnt exist so when they do get to the real world the word will have way more power than it would have if they had grown up with the word in their daily life
