Imagine having friends who refuse to visit your house, not because of the distance, but because of your mom’s open racism. That’s the reality for a 16-year-old girl whose mother, in her 40s, proudly admits to being racist. The teen’s friendship group is predominantly Asian, and they don’t feel comfortable visiting her home. The mother, however, was unaware of the real reason and accused her daughter of being unliked by her friends. This led to a heated argument, and the teen finally revealed the truth. Let’s dive into this emotionally charged story.
