[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I totally understand where you are coming from. I am white, but my children are mixed. If I had white children I would have the same issues/worries that you have. Some posters have given a different perspectives but the one's that say you are ridiculous have their heads in the sand. These concerns are real and valid. [/quote] What are those concerns again? That white people will be treated in the US like the Germans treated the Jews? White pogroms, and whatnot? One thing that struck me about OP's post - as a means for her children to cope with their upcoming minority status, she suggests that she'll encourage them to become active when they see a civil rights violation (presumably because it could happen to them someday). That fact that opposing civil rights violations is just the right thing to do apparently isn't sufficient - there's gotta be some personal benefit. Urk. I vote for a childhood head injury, PP.
