Different

Different

I always try to encourage Adrian to eat vegetables.   Today we have "gai lan" at dinner.

Me:  This is also called Chinese Broccoli.

Adrian:  Chinese Broccoli?  How come it looks different?

Me:  Of course it's different, that's why it's called "Chinese" broccoli. You don't look the same as Adrian N. (his caucasian classmate), do you?

(Pause)

Adrian:  Mommy, we got a problem.  Everybody looks different!
