They claim that youngsters may say the most unexpected and sincere things that can’t help but leave you in awe. <\/p>\n

This was the case for one South Carolina mother from Clover whose 2-year-old daughter shocked her by giving a startling response to a nasty inquiry from a cashier.<\/p>\n

Sophia Benner and her mother Brandi Benner went shopping in 2017. Brandi made the decision to give Sophia a gift because she had recently learned how to use the toilet. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Brandi informed her that she could choose a special incentive for finishing her toilet training before they entered a Target store.<\/p>\n

Sophia looked at a doll depicting a doctor after twenty minutes. Brandi stated that this was not unexpected as Sophia frequently performed \u2018check-up\u2019s\u2019 on her family members when playing doctor at home.<\/p>\n

\u2018She was admiring every doll and telling me how lovely they were until she stopped and exclaimed, \u2018Mommy, that doll is a doctor like me!’\u2019 Brandi told PEOPLE, \u2018I want this one.<\/p>\n

Sophia excitedly walked to the cashier with her mother once she had made up her mind. The cashier they saw there, though, was much less excited about the planned purchase. <\/p>\n

According to a Facebook post Brandi had made about the incident, the cashier reportedly questioned, \u2018Are you sure this is the doll you want, honey?\u2019 <\/p>\n

The mother and daughter exchanged perplexed looks at that point, but Brandi quickly realized what the clerk was getting at. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sophia chose a black doll even though she is white. Sophia was asked the same question by the cashier again, and this time she responded in a way that astounded her mother.<\/p>\n

The cashier continued to press little Sophia on her choice even after the girl had confirmed that this was <\/p>\n

the doll she wanted. The cashier asked again, \u2018But she doesn\u2019t look like you. We have lots of other dolls that look more like you.\u2019<\/p>\n

Before Brandi could step in and give the cashier a piece of her mind, Sophia came back with an amazing response that put her in her place:<\/p>\n

\u2018Yes, she does. She’s a doctor like I’m a doctor. And I’m a pretty girl and she’s a pretty girl. See her pretty hair? And see her stethoscope?\u2019<\/p>\n

Brandi said the cashier simply replied, \u2018Oh, that\u2019s nice.\u2019 Despite the tense encounter, Brandi told People she didn\u2019t hold anything against <\/p>\n

the cashier as she was \u2018an elderly woman who looked like my own grandma. I don\u2019t think she understood the implications of <\/p>\n

her words or how discouraging it could be to anyone else\u2019s daughter.\u2019 She added the cashier also expressed that she thought \u2018Sophia was the cutest.\u2019<\/p>\n

Brandi said she was surprised by the overwhelming response to her Facebook post but more so proud of her daughter. She told the outlet:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u2018A kid of one color wanting a doll of another color shouldn\u2019t be a big deal. I just shared it for my friends and family <\/p>\n

and thought it was cool my daughter stuck up for herself without me having to do anything. But I\u2019m so grateful that people have been touched by it. It was a really proud mom moment.\u2019<\/p>\n

As for how a 2-year-old is even aware of the word stethoscope? Brandi revealed it was from watching the show \u2018Doc McStuffins,\u2019 although she admitted, \u2018Sophia doesn\u2019t quite say it properly!\u2019<\/p>\n
