[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: So when they adopt, if they choose to and their kid faces bigots and they don’t know how to handle the issue or play it off due to some other reason, then what? Ignorance isn’t bliss when it comes to acknowledging racism exist and not staying silent and allowing it. [/quote] This is what it's about. If it's a mixed/black kid - he and his spouse need to be prepared. I would say the same thing to a White/White couple. Not to mention hair care, etc. This are skills that must be possessed by trans-racial adoptive and birth parents. I don't think Nephew needs to be taught how racism has impacted him in retrospect, he just needs some basic learning for the sake of his own kids.[/quote] Oh give me a break. It's a lot easier and more pleasant for the parent(s) to get a lesson from a nice professional lady (or gent) at a salon, or watch a highly rated Youtube video, than listen to a lecture from a bitter, invasive relative.[/quote]
