[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting, 13:24, and thanks for responding.  Another "white" actor comes to mind-  Wentworth Miller.

I do indeed have an Asian-white kid and he looks of ambiguous ethnic origin.  Will be interesting to see how he's identified by others; I have a feeling it will be white, as he definitely looks whiter than he does Asian, though as I said, it's hard to say what his ethnicity is if you didn't already know.[/quote]

Yes, I am actually familiar with Wentworth's dad (black man) and Wentworth is definitely a good example of another biracial treated as white by society.  People who say the one drop rule holds are not really aware of the millions of biracial people who they [i]think[/i] are white and treat accordingly. [/quote]

13:24 (and also 13:46) here.  It will be interesting to see how your son is treated once his Asian parent is seen with him and people realize he is half-Asian.  I had a "HaPa" friend in college who felt that, when he was growing up, [b]his teachers would treat him differently after meeting his Asian mother at PTA meetings[/b].[/quote]

What was his experience?[/quote]
