[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I would worry about bullying. Your child will be the only white kid.[/b] Will they be comfortable? Will YOU be comfortable with your kid dating black teens.[/quote] Why would you worry about bullying? Any evidence to support that? My kid attends a majority minority school with few white kids--have never heard of any race-based bullying. Not sure why it would be any different at a high school like Banneker, filled with smart, studious kids. [/quote] NP here. I'm glad your child hasn't been singled out or bullied based on their skin color. Mine has. It has affected her quite a bit. I am not making assumptions about the social scene or potential for this to happen at Banneker but it certainly can happen, even amongst "smart, studious kids." Forgive me for not wanting my child to experience it again.[/quote]
