Accepted Answer

Ignoring the comments does not address the issue and may even reinforce the child's stereotypes or biases.

Challenging the comments and discussing the big ideas can help the child understand why their comments are problematic and encourage critical thinking and empathy.

However, making exceptions for individual children all the time may result in unfair treatment of other students. It is important for teachers to strike a balance between recognizing individuality and maintaining fairness in their classroom.
