Two-year-old Sophia has just reached a major milestone in her life: she’d been toilet trained for a whole month.
Her parents, Nick and Brandi, told her she could pick out a special ‘prize’ as a reward for all of her hard work.
But when she picked out a new doll, something…unexpected happened when her daughter reached the checkout of their local department store in South Carolina.
“The cashier asked Sophia if she was going to a birthday party,” Brandi wrote in a Facebook post about the experience.
"We both gave her a blank stare. She then pointed to the doll and asked Sophia if she picked her out for a friend. Sophia continued to stare blankly and I let the cashier know that she was a prize for Sophia being fully potty trained," she continued.
The woman, who Brandi said had a "puzzled look" on her face, then asked her daughter if she was sure that was the doll we wanted.
"She doesn't look like you. We have lots of other dolls that look more like you," the cashier said.
You see, the doll that blue-eyed, blonde-haired Sophia had picked had dark skin.
But Sophia, a symbol of all that is pure and good and right in the world, just didn't see the problem.

I'm going to call BS on this one. As if a min wage shop assistant living week to week who hasn't taken a holiday in over a decade would jeopardize her only source of income like that, or even care what box some customer is buying. Makes no sense whatsover. Video or it didn't happen. Otherwise this just reads like more virtue signaling, just by proxy.
Sounds all a bit too "perfect" ......some of these social media stories sound far fetched to me.
