[quote=Anonymous]Yes. I've posted this before. I am South Asian and DH is white. I'm also very short, so many people confuse me for a latina nanny rather than a very old, crotchety lawyer. My kids, especially when they were itty, are very fair. One time, a woman who was with her 20-something daughter told me when I was taking DS out of the stroller by his arms rather than torso, "his mother wouldn't want you to do that". Her daughter was visibly horrified about her mom's mistaking me as the nanny. Someone also once asked me "how long have you with with them" at the playground with both DD and DS. I wished I was quick-minded enough to retort "since their dad knocked me up". I think I read about an AA mom who did that when questioned about her very fair kids.[/quote]
