Not sure what this means, but the word in question is almost never used in modern day, even by racists.
Maybe in some hill in Appalachia or some other isolated community, but most people who use it know what they're doing. And I don't fault the child. But I do fault the father. That's life. He's probably around my age or older. Again, I was in elementary school from 1987-1993. It wasn't so "giggle giggle oh what does this mean" term then.

What the frick are you talking about at this point? You are making the bold assumption that every nine year old knows everything his dad knows? I haven't said that word in years, and I haven't heard it in probably as long. My son will most definitely have to hear it in school or on the playground. If he heard about the UNCF in school, why wouldn't he ask the difference there?
Not all of us whities sit around telling our kids all the cool offensive words towards blacks.

You are way to sensitive. And that is about is kindly as I can say what I really I'm really thinking.
