[quote=Anonymous]My DS is 1/4 AA and we have had no issues. We live in N. Arlington and go to a fairly diverse immersion school. My DS considers both of us beige (I am the bi-racial parent). Not sure what the future will hold for him but so far like me he is fairly generically "ethnic" looking. I get mistaken for everything. Vietnamese, Italian, Puerto Rican, Indian, you name it, typically people think I am whatever they are. I have a feeling DS will get the same thing. We have already experienced a bit of that. I guess the bonus of looking like many things is that no one can nail you down. I can't say I have experienced much racial discrimination in my life. Maybe I am just lucky, let's hope DS is lucky too. The one thing we do know OP is that DC will be adorable as all children are. [/quote]
