| My kid will say he’s half-white and half-Asian. I notice that I, as the Asian contributor, tend to say he’s Asian, while my white husband tends to say he’s white. I don’t know if that many half kids who look white enough that no one would guess there were Asian genes mixed in. Though, I think a lot of times mixed Asian-white kids look Latino. |

| Mixed, multiracial or half Caucasian, half Asian. I usually just say mixed. |

How about adopted Asian kids being raised in white families?

| Hapa, obviously. |

| Rather than say “half,” I have started to say “both” Asian and white. |

| My kids refer to themselves as Wasian or mixed, depending on mood/audience. |

| 40 something here. We had a couple of kids like that in my HS and they were called ‘Amerasian.’ Not very PC now that I look back at it! |

The offspring of whites and Asians always look Asian, so I guess they're Asian. |
