Do farang dream ?

[AYJAYDEE]

Throughout history humans have had a nasty habit of dehumanizing people who are different. Different color, different language, different customs, often equals sub-human, non-human or evil.

You say the daughter is mixed so I am guessing there is no language problem to cause misunderstanding. Perhaps she was teased by Thai kids who find her different and that caused her to have doubts and questions.

I would simply reassure her that despite perceived differences all people are pretty much the same. Then again what do I know, Im a farang who dreams.

Interesting choice of words in your 1st paragraph. Like NMP stated...we all do that sometimes. For a younger child, it depends alot on the social circle she/he is engaged in.

Despite my own perceptions of what my friend has written to me about his daughters words, i wanted to know if other posters had something to say about this. My friend did not have it easy last years, various reasons, but he never mentioned anything like this before. He is as well a person who not easily shares his true thoughts and feelings. As he is visiting me shortly, i would want to know what that question from his own daughter meant to him

Thanks to you and others for your response on this topic. As for 1 other poster....the eye of the beholder...

so far that is the best bash rationalization of 2015!!

The mindset is this.. Naturally nobody dreams. Heavily conditioned and brainwashed, everybody dreams as the content of the unconscious comes to the surface. So just tell the kid, we dream. We are just as messed up as you are.

I dream of electric sheep.

But they say the candle that burns twice as bright, burns half as long.
