[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ Thank you, poster. We have the kids registered for a spring sport. I hope this will help them make friends and reassure my husband that things will be ok, and even when they are not, it's important for the kids (and us parents) to deal with it in a mature and compassionate way - I always go by Nelson Mandela's quote: Be the change you want to see in the world. Of course he thinks this is me in la la land again...[/quote] I’ve lived here. I’ve lived in the South. Your husband has a point in the south. Casual and not so casual racism are a very real problem there. And for some, biracial children are an affront to Gods plan or some such crap. I’d be concerned. You aren’t in LaLa land in the Marshall pyramid or FCPS. It’s a whole different mindset. In fact, I have HS kids and I’ve only heard of two bad bullying incidents— one at Oakton and one at Madison, and both of white girls by mostly white girls over Queen Bee and Wannabe drama. [/quote]
