My youngest boy 13 years of age is becoming more racist himself due to all the %&^#@ he goes through every day at middle school.

Is there any possible way to remove your child? Is homeschooling and private schooling absolutely impossible.
Also...There are schools that are so morally, spiritually, and physically toxic that it would be better for a child never to attend. No, formal education would be better than to endure what many children suffer every day in their schools. ( I **seriously** mean it.)
It would be safer for many children ( and they would likely learn more) if they merely took books out from the library and read them. If there are any deficiencies they can be addressed with remedial courses at a community college.
Finally,...You know that your child is suffering every day. He knows that you know it. Surely he must feel utterly abandoned.
My kid doesn’t feel abandoned whatsoever and does have friends at his middle school and a great home life. I am sure the majority of kids at his school feel the same way that he does about race. Think about it just for a moment - when a white kid beats up a black kid at school everyone hears about it. The same applies too if a black kid beats up a white kid. After the fight he was involved in many white boys came forward and basically patted him on the back for it was as if he was scoring one for the white side. As they saw it someone finally stuck up for them by putting the racist black bully in his place. Crazy isn’t it? But the black kid who got the surprise of his life for pushing the wrong white boy around once too often also had his friends come forward and ask why he beat up their “homie”.
The color lines will always be there as far as I am concerned. The only way to change things is through education and if the parents aren’t educated then chances are their children won’t be either as the acorn doesn’t fall far from the tree. The cycle will continue on and on and nothing will change.
I will be putting my son in a private school next year when he starts high school as this is just nuts.
