If you are anything like I am, you do not bring
men around your children until you know it is
going somewhere. It is really none of their
business about your children unless you think
it is going to be a committed relationship.
IF they can not accept your children for
something so small as the color of their skin,
do you really want them any way? There are a
lot of people that are still stuck back in the
days when racism was still going strong. You
can not change people so you just have to keep
dating until you find the right person that will
love you and your children.
NEVER allow anyone to treat your children
different just because they are a different race.
One of my good friends has a daughter and
she is also bi-racial, my boys always told her
how beautiful her tan was. Finally my friend
asked me when am I going to tell them that
she is a different color, I said never..why
should I. My kids do not judge people for the
color of their skin, they like people for the way
they treat them.
I actually told Rose that if she wanted them to
know that she would be the one telling them.
So we all sit down and she explained that her
daughter's Dad was a black man and that was
why she was tan. My boys said OH ok can we
go play now. I do think that the parents make
a bigger deal out of it then the kids do.
Children are willing to accept others by the
way they treat them, IF they are taught the
right way.
Good Luck and I hope you figure out how you
want to handle things. I myself would wait
until I thought we were going to be a serious
couple. You have to use your own judgement.
