[QUOTE="IanKEvans2, post: 1402524, member: 12945"] It's definitely not unheard of, though regardless of intent (shock, hatred, poor attempt at humor, etc...), typically the way people grow out of it is by way of some form of confrontation to those words. This happens usually in one of three ways: 1) A direct challenge coming from someone they respect, 2) Personal experience with populations outside of their bubble of development in which insight to why those words can be damaging is discovered, or 3) Social backlash for those comments/opinions. Perhaps this is the moment where he is facing consequences of those words and learn. It is my hope that he genuinely takes this experience to learn from those mistakes and move toward growth within himself. Just my two cents. [/QUOTE]
