Exactly Punch.  My children grew up in one of the most 'colourful' suburbs of Melbournes inner west.  My son was best friends with a cute little Sudanese boy in kinder.  His English was very limited and my sons speech was progressing very slowly at that point.  It didnt matter, they really needed to speak to each other very little, they just knew they had fun playing together and thats all that mattered. And if my kids fall in love with a 'non white' person and want to get married and have a family with them Imma be the happiest parent that ever lived because they have found the 'right' person for them who they want to spend the rest of their life with 🙂
