Looking for 'diverse' schools doesn't mean there will be no racial animosity. You fill find plenty.

Help your kids find kind, supportive friends (of any race) and don't worry about it.

I'm the PP who you're responding to. What exactly in the post you quoted are you rolling your eyes at? Finding supportive friends?

Another biracial poster who agrees that schools with 'diversity' don't shelter you from people with racial animosity.

And no one is saying that, no matter how many times you try to make the conversation about that.
Racial diversity ensures that your child does not feel isolated as the only one who is different.

Exactly !!!!!!
So many damn folk just want to, in some round damn about way, make the point that POC can be racist(NO SHIT) or to justify making their child the "only" in some particular situation.

So many damn folk don't seem to understand that your skin color does NOT make you the 'only' unless you let it. Even if my kid is the only biracial kid, he has found other kids (of different skin color) that he is friends with.

So many damn folk also don't understand that being around people of the same skin color does not mean that Your Kid will never feel left out. It's just not that simple.

My priority is to teach my kid that his skin color doesn't matter. If it matters to other people, that is their issue and he needs to figure out how to navigate that (just like LGBQT people do, just like fat people do, just like Muslims do).

Lady, kick rocks!!!!!
I'm so sick of folk trying to tell people of color what their issues are, what their experiences are and how to deal with them. No one is talking about SKIN COLOR, we are discussing race and racial dynamics. If you cannot keep up, then drop out of the conversation. It is 2017 and we are still dealing with inequitable racial dynamics in this country. So miss me with your Pollyanna, head in the sand Post Racial bullshit. My life as a woman of color, my kids' experiences as POC is not the same as a white person's experience in this nation. It just is not. You don't have to like it, you do not have understand or experience it but it does not make it untrue or invalid.
And guess what else, other people understanding the racial dynamics at play in our society does not mean that we do not teach our kids to not judge other people based on race, religion, or ethnicity. Some of us teach our kids to recognize, respect and understand difference while ALSO recognizing that we have a long way to go in healing racial wounds, evening the playing field and UNlearning racism. Your ridiculous comments reek of someone who has no clue what it is to face discrimination or to be treated like "other" on a consistent basis-and yea their are POC who fit this discrimination.
I feel sorry for your biracial kid; what you are teaching him to do is to erase himself and the different experiences he may have, and how to navigate the world as it is, not how you want it to be in your privileged bubble.
We need to celebrate people's difference, appreciate their uniqueness, not make it invisible in order to facilitate your comfort.

Sigh.... who taught you this insecurity?!?!? Not pp you are referring too but I'm probably the most prolific poster on here arguing against you and undoubtedly a POC as you like to call it.

How in the world do you get insecurity out of anything I said? It has nothing to do with insecurity, not one dang dong thing.
Please explain how any point I made is borne of "insecurity"?
It is insecure to want to your child's school environment to look like more like the world, and to be populated by all types of races, ethnicities, etc.?
It is insecure to understand that is important to some parents to want their child not be the only person of color in their school or classroom?
It is insecure to understand that there is much work to be done in regards to racial equality and understanding?

Not sure OP wants a school with a significant % of her ethnicity so much as she is concerned that the school is not more diverse overall.

And not just weak, you have yet to explain how any point I made is indicative of "insecurity".
You are mad because I am frustrated with and calling out people trying to invalidate other people's experiences and how they feel best to deal with them?
You mad because I call bullshit on ANYONE saying that we just 'don't see skin color' and to act like everyone's experience in this country is the same?
You mad because I called out the fact that it is nonsense to pretend that other people live lives you do not and pretending that we don't have far to racially is just well ....folly?

Seriously, step back. This thread has been taken over by some people who seem to be working out old hurts here. Do that shit in therapy, and stop taking it out on strangers on dcum.
