I am, too, nomerci, but I primarily see myself as a father and husband over as a member of my profession, and I am uncomfortable with my children seeing other kids behave like this.
And, yes to a degree it is racial. Because my children are white and will have the advantages of wealth, education and citizenship in three rich countries, I feel especially obliged to teach them the importance of respect regardless of race or nationality and not to lord their advantages over others. I routinely point to such kids of examples of what happens if they fail.
