[quote=Anonymous]OP, it’s unfortunate you didn’t make a conscious effort to have your daughter interact with a more diverse group of children while she was growing up. It could have been done outside of school and probably would have helped her to be able to navigate both groups/cultures. You can’t just flip the switch. While her group of white friends may be nice, I’m guessing she still feels somewhat out of place being the only in the group. This may be okay when girls are younger, but can be tougher as they mature and start to date. Of course she can date whomever, but fewer black girls date white boys than white girls dating black boys. This can lead to low self esteem. Not what people want to hear, but it’s reality. You’re also only presenting one side. [/quote]
