Wow, that surely is a great mix. I try to tell people that interracial families are so beautiful, because that shows everyone that anybody can love one another, no matter what color they are. God luck for you and your family and thanks...  =

I am white & my children's father is black. Each of my children have asked questions as they have gotten older. Most commonly," if you are white & dad is black what am I?" I have always done my best to answer every question they have honestly and realisically and to allow them to define who they are. Each is comfortable with who they are and what their family history is. Today I have a multiracial 14 yr old a biracial 12 yr old, a black 10 yr old ( because my Daddy is) and an 8 yr old princess. The only complaint my oldest girl has is she wished she had "white girl hair". Best advice love them and be honest. Good luck  =

Hi, I am half-Taiwanese, 1/4 black & 1/4 white. I loved growing up and love being multi-racial and proud of my lineage ! :)
I am due in May 2006, and my fiance is black. We intend on teaching our baby all about her ethnic background and making sure she is proud and educated about the different races she comes from. I think inter-racial families are beautiful, and it's twice as fun to have twice as many heritages, customs and holidays to celebrate in life!
I DO think that children can go thru a period of confusion if things are not explained to them or if one culture is stressed as better than the other... but if u remain open with your kids and teach them that they are unique and precious whether they are black/brown/blue/purple or yellow! that they will do just great.
Congrats all the mommies on your pregnancies! :)  =

First of all.. Congrats to all of the expecting mommies!!!

I grew up in a strong bi-racial family.. my mom is filippino and dad is white and my siblings (there's 4 of us) and I, were hardly ever picked on...well except i was picked on for having extremely curly hair and my brother and sisters had straight hair lol... anywho...For anyone to have grown up in a bi-racial family or is bring up bi-racial children are blessed with the knowledge that racism has no place in this world... i'm due in july with my first child, and both my husband (who's white/native american) and myself plan on teaching our child about the philippine culture as well as the native american culture and many others... Its important to us that our child is exposed to different things.. and taught not to judge people by the color of their skin.. =)  =

I dated a (white) guy in college whose dad had left and his mom remarried a black man. He always accepted the stepdad as his real father and wanted to change his last name. He had brothers and sisters who were mixed races and thought the world of them. He was raised in another country where it was very accepted. However, at college in the states, he ran into prejudice. I was proud of how he tackled it head-on.  =

Hi i'm 20 and im expecting my first child the end of october my baby will be mixed (which i have always hoped for) since i am white and the father is black... we are no longer "dating" but are still bestfriends and very close and both of us want this baby... congrats... and be prepared for even more stares than you got as a couple... i helped raised my sisters little girl (who is 100% black but very light skinned) and got some of the more horrible looks and comments... i once had a little girl ask if she was my daughter and since she calls me mommy and i have had her since she was 4 months old (she is now turning 4) i said yes, like i always do... her mother then came out to tell me that i must have misunderstood her daughters question... she wants to know if that is your little girl... i stood up and picked my little girl up smiled and told her yes before walking away... its not easy... but its worth it!  =

Hi! Not only am I a product of an interracial marriage, but I am also in an interracial relationship. Actually, because of where I was raised, went to college and work now, I've never really been around many black or mixed people. But half of my family is black. I had some trouble growing up in a predominatly white school, but not too much since my older sister and brother kida set the path for me. Our family lived in a small town who was pretty accepting after we became established members. I've had inner city aquaintences ask me why I act white? And a boyfriend whose friends told me I was only half pretty - silly things like this are bound to happen. But its really all apart of where your located. I think its wonderful that there are more openminded people out there in the world everyday! And congrats on being those people!! I thank my parents for that everyday ~ and for raising me this way too!  =

I am black and my first husband was black. We had 2 daughters. We divorced and I married a whire man.My second husband never wanted children, but when he proposed I told him we were a package deal (lol). It's been going on 11 years now and amazingly enough some people still believe they have the right to say something stupid or stare at you so hard you wonder if your undies are showing! We live in the 21st century yet certain mindsets are stuck in the days of their grandparents. I say live and let love do the rest. Marry who you want because you love him/her and not because they resemble you. You're marrying a personality, a heart not a colour. Same ethnic couples have the same problems as interracial couples because live presents itself with problems. Better to have a partner on your side who truly cares during these stressful moments than someone who is only with you because they share your skin colour. I have people state to me and my husband on various occassions,' Gosh! I could never marry out of my race!' My reply has always been ,'Good, that leaves more men for my daughters to choose from!' I have been told by well-meaning(ha)friends that my husband married me for sex. My reply,' Well, the blacker berry the sweeter the wine and he does become quite enibriated.' You need a sense of humour and a quick wit to handle the ignorant comments. Also, oddly enough and this surprised me some people don't value your relationship as real. Meaning, they will make the comment,' I didn't think the marriage would work out or last.' It was really nice to see this person was on my side. NOT! Well, I shall end now with a word to all of you. Stay true to your heart,s love your families and raise them to love and respect people regardless of the colour their skin; and when your spousepartner is sleeping take a good long gaze at that person who makes you happy. That feeling you will get from gazing at him/her is called love.  =

I am a filipino and my husband is israeli. We couldnt be more opposites in color, traditon, and beliefs. I am also a daughter of a pastor and have strong beliefs in my faith and yet I married someone who doesnt even believe in Jesus. We love each other very much and have been married for 7 years. We have a beautiful son (5) and a daughter (3) and we're expecting our 3rd child in feb 2007. It's been great knowing and bringing our kids exposing them to so much traditions. We celebrate hannukah and christmas and we I take my kids to church (and even my husband) sometimes. We all love each other very much and it really helps that I live in Los Angeles too because here everyone is just a mix of everything else. My kids are so normal because pretty much everyone in this town is the same as them. half and half of something else. The funny thing is my husband's parents are from egypt and sudan but he was born in israel and my grand parents are part spanish, chinese, and even jewish too. So there my children are americans who are part egyptian, african, israeli, filipino, spanish, and chinese. Wow ... that's interracial!  =

Lizzi,
Well it's my personal opinion that you're dead wrong and ignorant. I'm not in an interracial relationsip nor have I ever been, but to be so ignorant as to say it's wrong is pathetic. Then again I shouldn't be surpirsed about such small-mindeness.  =

My ex-husband is black and we have 3 children together. They are beautiful and it isn't about being one or the other, it's a combination of culture diversity and love. My grandmother calls our family the heinz 57 family, I have several cousins who have married out of their race as well. Me personally, I think in a small way we are helping to slow down racism.

Enjoy your family and all the blessings it brings.  =

I know this all happened yesterday, but I thought I would throw in my 2 cent. I'm mixed, have a mixed son and have been with a white choc. bro for 4 years. We're all intertwined ! We don't know what we are anymore!! For me I live as color blind as possible. Believe me I'm not living this racism free life or nothing but I think it is what you make it. Everyone has there own opinions and the way they live they're lives. Why is everyone so worried about what everyone else is doin with there families? Maybe some of you need to focus on your own shit!!!  =

I am white (or 'the pasty one" around here) my partner is black, my two biological children have a native american father, and her two biological sons have a white father. our youngest daughter is part hispanic and part white... all of our children are close to the same color, and with us at oppisite ends of the spectrum our family really does look like a mix of both of us. i absolutly love it, so far no one has picked on the kids for it and our families could care less what color any of us are...

we tell our kids all the time 'you are not mixed, or half and half or anything else people say.. you are perfectly blended into the exact person you are supposed to be!'  =

I have adopted children that are mixed. The best advise I can give you is to love them the best you can. And teach them that there IS racism out there. That way they will know how to handle it if it comes their way. I did not teach my oldest that and when it came it was hard for him. But my daughter we have taught. .She has no problems handling anything that might come her way  =

We are expecting our first child any day now :) we are extreemly excited ( and a little nervous) about the things that are ahead of us :) so far we as a couple have not come accross any rude comments we do get a few looks here and there but i know the real reason for that is the fact that we are such a handsome couple :) We are from Philadelphia,Pa , so i feel we are fortunate to live in a large, diverse city who for the most part are very excepting of our love.

I am white and my husband is black. We are Jewish. He converted before we were married. She is very much accepted at her Jewish Day School. Socially, she has had no problems fitting in or being accepted. But you must have a thick skin. People look at us funny all the time out in public. LA is a great place for interracial families, but ignorance and bigotry is still alive. It is up to you to teach your child to ignore it and to embrace both cultures. I believe it might be easier to have a black mommy since my daughter doesn't get stares with her father. She spends all her time with me and she does want books with "brown people" (her words) and playmates who are brown. Something I have found difficult due to our location (West L.A.). It will be a challenge, but this is the way it is for you. I fell in love with her father and I took the challenge. It has not been easy and we won't even travel to the South, but our love and dedication to her outshines any negativity we have encountered. Good luck to you.  =

Hi, I am a 30 yr old white female, and I live with a 36 yr old black man. I have two girls, who are white, and he has a girl that is mixed. We get the stares, and we always laugh about it. we had someone come to our home that was looking at a stove we were selling, when the man go there, he was like I think I am in the wrong part of town, I didnt think nothing of it, but then my boyfriend said you know what he meant by that dont ya, and after i thought about it, and the big ole rebel flag belt buckle he had on, i knew what he meant, we got a big laugh out of that one. I dont care what people think, he treats my girls just like he treats his, both of thems father walked out and hasnt seen them in years. They now say that my boyfriend is their dad!  =

I feel like people need to worry about their own situation and not be so worried about what others are doing or who they decide to have children and who they marry. Mind yo own business and worry about your own messed up choices in life, and this world would be a better place.

I just wanted to let the "LAmommy" know that even though the south is stereotyped as being prejudiced it is not a bad place to visit. I am white and my husband is black. We have been married for 9 yrs. We have three biracial daughters. We live in MS. I have to travel to AL,GA,LA,and around MS with my job. Everywhere I go in the south, I see blended families with bi or multi racial children. In this day and time, it is more accepted in the south as opposed to ten years ago. Of course on occasion we still get the double glance, or the questions. That will be the case anywhere you go. But 9 times out of ten, any comment we get on our family is how beautiful our children are. We have taught our girls about their different backgrounds, and educated them on the aspects of racism. They know who they are as a person. They are God's children. Just like any "all" white or "all" black child would be; a child of GOD. I hope this will help to ease your negativity of the south. I love living in the south, I wouldn't have it any other way. You really should visit the south, it is beautiful.

To the ones out there who think it is just plain horrible to see a blended family, let me tell you a little saying that my oldest daughter told a child at the park one day. A little white girl asked my daughter what color she was, was she black or mexican or what. My daughter calmly told the child "I am the same color as you are." The other child said, "no you're not". My daughter replied, " Yes I am because in God eyes we are all one color." The child didn't know what to say and then after a minute she said I guess you're right, want to go swing with me. You see adults instill in their children the question of race. After my daughter affirmed the fact that she was no different than the other child, that child was okay with it. So instead of showing your children the differences in races by your actions, show them that we are all the same in the eyes of God.  =

Turnip (Brassica rapa L.) is a root Brassica crop and has been used as a vegetable for human consumption in Europe since prehistoric times. Turnip root has been a popular livestock fodder for at least 600 years wherever the crop can be grown. For most of that time turnip roots have been managed as forage. Researchers in the United States determined in the early 1900s that turnip roots are valuable energy sources for young ruminant animals. However, livestock farmers at that time were turning away from the Brassica root crops (which also include rutabagas or swedes) for fodder because much hand labor was required for the production and utilization of the large roots. One study showed that the labor requirement on a nutrient basis for these crops was three times that needed for corn silage production.  =

love your husband and understand that he is trying to make a life for you and your child it happens in a lot of situations and it will continue to happen as long as the world is ignorant to love remember that your child is going to face alot of these types of issues and the way he sees you handle it will help him cope and be confident so talk to your husband remember i said to him not at him and try to understand more of his side like how long he needs to do this for the sake of his job  =

It really breaks my heart that people can't just accept the fact that two people can fall in love regardless of looks. And by looks I mean pretty, fat, gorgeous, skinny, black, white, asian, bald, whatever!

True love and strong partnerships do not come easy to any of us and to limit yourself to the confines of race or anything other physical attribute is only detrimental to your happiness. Attraction that grows into love and respect is what is important.

I certainly can appreciate if you are not attracted to someone for whatever the reason. You cannot and should not fake affection. And if you're not attracted to someone then so be it. But just as no one should feel obligated to date outside their race, no one should feel wrong about interracial dating either.

I know couples of the same race who fight both physically and verbally and abuse each other daily, yet judge my white husband and me (who is black) about our solid 8 year relationship, 6 of which have been in marriage. We rarely argue and when we do we strive to do it in an intelligent, constructive manner and we've never frivolously broke up just to reunite and start the mad cycle again. We are in love and committed to each other and no man - black, white or otherwise has ever loved or supported me more.

Exactly what are people afraid of?! If it's not for you, don't do it! But leave everyone else alone to live their own lives and to find their own happiness. No one wants to deny you your happiness with your same race relationships. Who are you to judge ours?  =

I'm glad to have read this...I am mexican and my husband is chinese..we live in the bay area, and although you might think people are used to seeing interracial relationships, i feel the asian community are the ones that give us the most looks, first of all, i dont think they expected a mexican and a chinese, probably white and chinese, but i have heard a couple of negative comments from my husband's aunt, and boss (both chinese) such as: "how did your girl friend get here to the states? did she swim?" fortunately my husband (boyfriend at the time) translated that for me and made his aunt feel like a jackass, and then one time when we saw his boss during the weekend he invited us to lunch along with his two kids, then he asked me "dont you mexicans eat a lot of beans all the time" and fortunately his bratty kid answered for me "how would you know dad, all you eat is chinese food, you never want to try anything" - the reason why i bring this up, is because if i am being judge like this, i am afraid my kids (i'm due march 3rd 2008) will be judge the same way....but i am going to teach them to stay strong and to never let others put them down  =

I think it funny about people having trouble with interracial relationships. I'm Black and my baby's mother to be 3 weeks from now happens to be white, what's realy wrong with that. Both sides of our family are ok and even excited about the unborn baby. I think its about how you guys applied your self in public becouse both white and Black people we face every day treat us with respect. We both comute to New York every day from Jersey. We realy don't care about what people think though. In my opinion mix/ interracial kids are the only leading people that can fix the long silence racial war in the US beleive it or not. Thanks  =
