[quote=Anonymous]Try not to take it to heart. My white mother's family was thrown into chaos when she had a child (me) with an east Asian man (my father). Some relatives didn't see her for years, and all kinds of remarks were made, all of them offensive, only some of which were well-intended. My white grandmother remarked to me when I was 12 that races should never intermarry. That was nice. Everyone was disappointed when I married an east Asian - even my father, because my husband isn't from the same Asian country. He's from a poorer country, so big no-no. The fact my husband is multiples times wealthier than my father is just adding insult to injury. SO... all this to say, OP. Don't take it to heart. Racism is alive and well, and your job is to steer you and your kids through it as best as you can. [/quote]
