That's not defending racism, sexism or bigotry. Doesn't sound like it at all!
I'm not defending anything, I'm just saying that if you expect people to behave a certain way, and they don't behave that way, you can either continue to expect them to behave that way and be disappointed, or you can change your expectations.
This isn't a child's bad behavior. It's a national problem. Rapists and racists don't get a pass and say "Oh well. We should expect better." They are the problem. They should be handled as a problem.
I don't understand. Handled how?
Whatever makes them understand their behavior violates the social contract our society has written.
