It is said “the child is parent to the man.” Usually that child is taught by those who are older, usually by adults. Young children might dislike another child for running away with their favorite toy, but until they are taught otherwise they will not think of disliking the other child because his or her skin is another color or because the shape of their eyes is different. It takes those who are older to teach discrimination and hatred to the child. It takes an impure mind to sully the innocent one.
