[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm Chinese and if parents are anything like mine, they'd complain you should have married someone Chinese if you married white or any other Asian
And if you did the right thing by marrying someone Chinese, well, that wasn't good enough either.

The best thing I ever did was realize they'll never be satisfied with anything I do, or don't do.

However since tallness is a virtue, maybe they're just complaining because they wish your kids were taller. I do happen to have a kid with a white father and my parents love to fawn over how tall he is. Every.time.he.visits.

Whatever, live your life and not theirs.[/quote]

Because he's a boy.
I have a boy and a girl as does my sister. The difference in treatment based on gender is revolting.

not necessarily. my chinese MIL adores our daughter (9) and sort of likes our son (5). she just can't help it, she is all over the older one every time we hang out together, which pretty often.  it was so obvious with the Christmas gifts they brought from their trip to Asia for both kids.   so far kids haven't noticed, but my mom notices every time.
