5 thoughts on “Kids react to controversial Cheerios commercial”
Smart kids! Adults can learn a lot from them. However, I wonder if comments that differed from this bunch were edited out. Because, let’s face it, children are sometimes products of their environment and could be exposed to racism at home and adopt prejudiced opinions as their own without realizing it.
Oh, it’s definitely a purpose-built video, but I’d rather they focus on the kids they did. We don’t need proof people can be bigots, we have history (and the news) to remind us of that every day. :)
You know, I’ve seen this commercial twice and the fact that there were even “mixed race parents” had to be pointed out to me. I hope I remain colour blind. ;0)

I’ll give you that one. It’s better to focus on the positive than the negative :)
