[quote=Anonymous] Tangentially related, but my kids are multi-ethnic and come from three different countries. Our last name comes from a (highly-recognizable) country that's different than our country of nationality. Today I received an email about a college award that only exists for students from one of our countries. Our school sent it to us just because of our last name. Now I'm wondering if we missed out on other awards from our country of nationality, just because people don't know we're actually citizens of that country - nowhere is it obvious in any of our names! People are surprised when we say we're citizens of that country, because we don't look like we do. Point is: belonging and identity are incredibly complex matters. What you see is not all there is!!!!!! So please exercise a little grace. [/quote]
