    @Ibelive2020 I took my children to visit family in wolverhampton a few years ago  at the time my youngest son needed new shoes  so mum took my other children to get food 

    We were in the shoe shop and a rastaferian  came in long dread locks  he had never seen a black person before  and my son said to me mummy that man needs help when I asked why he said he needs a wash and needs to brush his hair I didnt know where to put myself  now he is married to a beautiful black lady

    My great niece was asking her mum about my bath chair and her mum explained I needed it as I had my leg amputated 

    She added why so her mum said because it was poorly 

    She replied will they put it back on when it's better

    My son when he was younger would always ask for Car Door ice cream.
    And a nephew when he was young had a Nurse Harvey's habit....but he called it 'in a minute' as whenever he asked his mum for some she'd say.....

    @janer1967 love the leg better...lol

    I had a similar experience at school when I was 5, there was a (Removed by moderator, phrase may offend others) called Natashar in my class, I'd never seen one not even on TV, so I called her "chocolate legs", and she called me "The milky bar kid", nothing racial about it just a bit of banter between 2 kids.

    Of course, it's always worth clarifying @MrAllen1976 and @lisathomas50 that if an adult said those things it would be completely unacceptable. Children do often make naive comments like that simply because they haven't been educated about those parts of life yet, or as you say they may not have seen someone of a different race or nationality.

    When a child does say something like that, it is important to educate them as to why those sorts of phrases are not acceptable in society.

    Our daughter who is 4 years younger than her brother Daniel couldn't pronounce his name she called him Dardle.
    My brother couldn't say the word "bananas" he used to call them "numnas"

    Thankfully he now knows how to say bananas :)

    Indeed, it doesn't matter if someone's black, white or an Elephant, as long as they treat me and others with respect.

    Couldn't agree more :):smile:

    Anyway, we're at risk of getting off topic here, this thread has a fun theme, anybody else's children or young family members say some strange things? :)

    When I was about 5, circa 1981, I had a speech impediment and couldn't pronounce my S's... I had a lot of therapy for that.
