Some of you know that there are quite a few videos out there that have to do with a Doll Test. They have kids sitting at a table. There is a "black" Doll in front of them and a "white" Doll in front of them. They are asked various questions. They are asked Which Doll is bad, which Doll is good, which Doll is pretty, etc. Almost ALL, if not all of the kids said the white Doll was the better Doll.
Now I have biracial children. When I saw this Doll Test I wanted to see what my children thought. I wanted to see who was winning in the nature Vs nurture battle. I asked her questions similar to those in the video.
It wasn't until I played it back that I realized I never once asked her about color. It wasn't til then that I really realized that we are "color blind". In my household we are.
Part 1
Part 2
My daughter didn't choose because of color. She chose literally by what she saw as in clothing and make up. She said if one Doll had on clothes it'd be just as pretty as the other. I was and am a proud mama.
There daddy is Caucasian and I am African American but we're only reminded of that when people would look at us funny at first.
My children have never once asked us why we look different. Only thing my oldest said was "mama why are you taller then daddy that's weird" lol. Yes their daddy is a short lil thing but love is love if it's color blind it can be height and weight blind too. That shows a good heart.
I have asked my kids what color I am. They didn't say black or white... they were literal as they should be. My babies said I am brown and that their daddy is a peach color (I laughed on that one lol).
Tell me what you think of this experiment. How do u feel society has changed how out children view themselves, us and our relationships.
