About Inter-Racial marriage/babies
Alrighty lets be honest. I know my granny my moms mom was one predjudice lady ( I am caucasian) my mom grew up that way has friends of all colors, blew a gasket when she found out my sis was dating a black guy( lets not get hung up on sematics ok ..African american) anyways, they really are happy. So I say more power to them. I think babies that are 1/2 black and 1/2 white have the prettiest color of skin. So Im getting at I am not predjudice. I would date a NICE man of any color ( once Im divorced and ready LOL)
My very good friend has twin boys age 1 they are so beautiful and smart. Yet the other day someone called them, innocent babies "oreos" makes me beyond mad.
The one and only time race or culture ever bothers me is it seems I get Drs who I cannot understand when they speak due to heavy accents. I ask questions and its important to me to understand the answers. well I am rambling..be nice here folks but be honest. I am really interested in what ya all have to say.

Hey he will be glad he learned Chinese, they will own us soon...LOl sorry bad joke
Both my son's married and have children with women from a different race. The older one married a Chinese woman and the younger one "married" a Black woman. I always expected that they would marry someone from a culture different from ours because they grew up in an area where there is a lot of cultural, racial and ethnic diversity. We are Metis - Native American/Canadian/white meaning we are products of a mixed marriage.
My older son and his wife have a two yr old boy and the younger one has a daughter who was born July 8/09. Both babies are just perfect. My grandson is learning English and Chinese which is going to be a real advantage for him when he's older. He's also learning a bit of French and Mohawk from his cheechum (me). My granddaughter is too young to talk yet.
I know racism is a complex issue, especially systemic racism but when I look at my grandchildren I don't see racially mixed children - I see them as my grandchildren.

Hey Cherie...My niece mixed...although she is 27 already....But when sister started dating her father and then married ....My Dad did not speak to her ...When she had my niece then he came around....I grew up where there only two other white girls in my class...It bothers me to when I can't understand the doctors...
But don't stop at prejudice for color of skin...There are lots of prejudices...different race, different religions, different political beliefs...If we can all come in and speak intelligently, comfortably and sanely...why can't everyone do that? Why can't people just get along? I have no issues with race, but boy o, did I come from a family tree that just does not swing on the same branch as me. My dad and I have gone round and round on that very subject. I just do not have the capacity to understand the hate and the incredible ignorance of prejudice. People are just people.. All have the capacity for good...all have the capacity for bad....All have the capacity to make it right.......
