[quote=Anonymous]The quarter black is the most hard to know combo. I am half black and my sister is also half black (obviously) and I look black and she looks mixed. Very common. But she married a white guy and her kids literally look white EXCEPT for the last one who looks mixed/skewing to 75 percent black. I married a black guy and all my kids look black (as most 75 percent do, think Obamas kids) but my husbands brother married a white girl and their kids look whiter than my sisters white kids. Anyway, mixed genes are a grab bag but when you are down to a quarter it’s the biggest “what if” in my experience. And everyone, and I mean everyone, is wondering about it and I think it’s natural. I disagree that loving your kids blue eyes or “promoting” them is racist, everyone looks for qualities they have in their kids and usually feel some special way about them? I think it’s natural. The worst part of being mixed is looking too white or too black because you can’t make anyone happy. I hope it’s something this next generation doesn’t deal with as much since interracial marriage is now common across all socioeconomic groups.[/quote]
