From what I could tell it was all ages.
I waited until I saw the video to comment on twitter yesterday. I kept seeing the comments but none of the tweets had the vid. I was expecting much worse. Maya was kind. The child was receptive, and she didn't just correct her, she explained why. Her voice was firm, but it was kind throughout. The child didn't seem offended, though we didn't see her full reaction. She seemed to accept the correction. I didnt see a problem with it.
We always had to have some sort of title when addressing adults or people older than our age group. Aunt, uncle, Ms., SOMETHING. At work, people of all ages address me as Ms. my last name and there is this one much older white lady that I sometimes address as Ms. and her first name.
When the Ms. Nancy mess jumped off, I sort of saw the rationale when people were saying a grown black woman shouldn't be referring to a white woman as though she was in a child place, but most probably wouldn't have had a problem if Nancy Pelosi was black, and as I'm blessed to have family and adults around me who have had the grace to to be an elder, I will continue to show age the respect I believe it deserves, regardless of race.
till this day !
Some girls/women will only address you if they feel you are attractive to them, even on the street/stores, etc... they think if they speak to you will try to talk to them, thirsty men are kind of the reason for this but a lot of women suffer from delusions of grandeur too
