[quote=Anonymous]Those of you calling troll have definitely not experienced this sort of behavior. It is very, very real.

I identify as AA but come from a multiracial family.  in my family, I am the "whiter" presenting sibling, with fairer skin and slightly less coarse hair. I am shorter and fatter than my sister, but she is darker, with kinkier hair. Our whole lives I was given special treatment because I have fairer skin. OP, talk to you girls about this, make sure they know that people are terrible and stupid and that these external opinions are not true value judgments on who they are as people.

OP, the less desirable daughter needs to be taken care of and given extra special treatment. My parents did not do this with my sister and she struggled badly. Low self esteem, depression, the works. She and I had a tough relationship in the teen years and we are ok now because we're able to talk openly about how we were treated and how wrong it is.

You are already on the right track by being hyper aware of this and knowing that it is wrong. [/quote]
