RE: Traditions are part of our national identity 👞 | A picture is worth a thousand words 🖋️ [ENG-SPA]

I kept nodding my head "YES" while reading @vezo. Wise grandmother who stands firm in her beliefs and traditions. She knows what's important. I feel the gist of the story was set when grandmother visited the teacher and explained how she should have handled diversity. The way that the educational system is today doesn't leave a lot of room to reach this important aspect of our society in terms of respect for another's cultural identity.

Had grandmother not intervened, the students would never have apologized and kept taunting Silvia, unless some of them relayed the story at their own homes and were corrected and advised to apologize. Sadly, this is not the case. Hope there are more mothers and grandmothers to hold the mantle high.

That a beautiful story of family heritage and appreciation for one's own culture. If it's not taught at home, it will be lost. Thanks for sharing. Take care.

I'm glad you liked the story 💙, I made it thinking of all those times that human beings have treated others badly because of their ethnicity or country of origin. The differences should not disunite us as a society, on the contrary, that is what makes us unique, the cultural richness that we all possess 🙌. As you say, there is a lack of awareness at home, not all parents correct these behaviors in their children, not all take the trouble to go to school to create awareness in teachers. Greetings, thanks for stopping by and leaving a thought-provoking comment that adds so much to the reading @justclickindiva 🤗🤗.
