One night Odan began to tell me about a mean boy at the park who was calling him names and telling him mean things. He described the boy as the boy with 'IronMan' sunglasses. He said the boy said he could "kill him" among other mean things. So I explained,
M: "Odan, don't listen to people you don't know. They might be having a hard time. That boy doesn't know what he's talking about. He doesn't understand..."
O: "Is he Spanish?"
M: "What? No! Well, maybe, I don't know, I didn't see him."
I later realized the Spanish thing came from the 'not understanding' part of our conversation, haha!
