Is it weird for me to get Ava a black queen t-shirt? She's had a lot of self esteem issues at just 5 years old, from asking me to paint her white, to asking me to straighten her hair so she could like everyone else. I don't know if it's politically correct to do, since even though I'm Spanish, I am her white mom.

I say go for it girl!! Kids are so mean these days and my nieces father is black but her mother is white and she is going through the same thing!

I think it may be a little weird if she's not black . However , you should definitely teach her to love herself and the skin she's in. It's so hard with our girls these days . The idea of what's cool , or pretty leans hard on them . @ceeasquared

its perfect I think. teach her about both sides of her ethnicity. its so sad that she's only 5 and feels the need yo change herself. she's beaitiful

She's been seeing and learning that from somewhere. Probably TV or school. There's no reason that she should have self esteem issues at such a young age. Teach her that she is perfect the way she is, I would definitely get her the shirt and let her watch videos or what not of black women that give empowerment!

@quea, We live in a town where white people are the majority. Her best friend at school has straight blonde hair and is white

Yes it is heartbreaking because she's beautiful!!!! But I know how you feel I have a 7 year old who thinks that your not pretty unless your fair skinned , long hair and skinny . Pretty much Barbie . And I'm trying to teach her self love and worth ! @ceeasquared

Your daughter is gorgeous. She has model potential. Maybe you should look into some inexpensive modeling agencies just to boost her confidence. I think my mom did that for me when I was younger. It pretty much woked until my light skinned younger sister happened to be waiting around at the agency with my mom. They saw her and were more interested in her. Lol
