Do you find it's easier to relate to one race than another?
The reason I ask, is my niece has a friend. She is white. She was hurt by a white man when she was little and refuses to see any white man as anything other than a child molester.
She has a child whose father is black.
Now she only wants her child at a school with 75% or more AA ratio.
She only invites black or mixed children to parties. She goes on every field trip to insure that her daughter isn't put as a bus buddy with a white child. I find this odd, and a bit outlandish. But I don't know if that's normal?
Bahahaha

Girl you can't be racist towards white people, that's against the racist handbook rules.
Quoting MultiPara:
No. Racist is racist.
Quoting marchantmom06:

Quoting MultiPara:
She's a racist pig that's what's sick.
Quoting marchantmom06:
What sick about it?
Quoting MultiPara:
That's fucking sick.
I identify with Mexicans more than anything and I am as white as it gets lol, DH is Mexican.
I would prefer my daughter go to a majority hispanic school ONLY so she can pick up the language better.
I don't really care who she befriends. She is friends with whoever she wants to be friends with lol. Although at the moment her favorite friend is biracial (her mom and I are best friends) and her mom is white, her daddy is Mexican as well.
I prefer to personally be around hispanics OR people who are/have been married to/dating hispanics. It's easier to relate to them :)
That chick has issues and she needs to stop projecting them onto her daughter! My mom was white, my dad was black and native. I was always taught that there is good and bad in every race and to love and respect everyone equally. I had friends of every shade as a child and I still do as an adult. My daughter's father is black. He is not mixed, he is just black; however, he has a daughter with a white woman, another daughter with a puerto rican woman, and he has our daughter. I dont care if my daughter has friends who are green, purple, and blue as long as they are not bad influences and are decent kids. Now as far as the school is concerned the one I would like my daughter to go to when she is at that age happens to be predominantly white, but I chose it for the reputation of the school, the way the kids are taught, and the educational superiority of the school, not because it was a white school. That chick really needs to seek help before she completely fukks up her kid!
i do not push my dd to be friends with a certain race. we teach dd that everyone is the same and she should be kind to everyone. in my city, it's very multicultural and i have many friends from different ethnicities. i love that dd is exposed to many different cultures so she can learn about them and their traditions if she wants to.

My dd is black/white, and relates quite well with both races. She only sees my family a couple of times per year (they are across the country), and she loves them dearly.
What a great opportunity for your son to learn spanish! Perhaps he could ask his friends to teach him some words/phrases so they all can talk together?

I wish my kid had more white friends. And not because I'm racist....it's not like I don't want him hanging out with other races/ethnicities. It's just that alot of the times his friends will go off and start talking in spanish and kinda leave him out. I just wish he had more white friends he could relate to, I guess.
How sad that she is teaching her child to be so closed minded. I was raped by a black man - that doesn't mean that all black men are rapists!!!! Both of my boys are half black and half white, I don't care who they are friends with as long as that person is nice to them!
I think my husband's a sociopath
