My sons White and I'm mixed race ?
My girlfriend got pregnant last year and before my son was born we split up and stopped speaking. 6 months on we are trying to sort our relationship and I have met my son. The one problem is he is White with blue eyes. I'm mixed black and White and my sons mum is White. He doesn't look like Any off us. I have a 2 year old daughter and you can tell she is mine easily but my son has no resemblance. She said he's mine and I don't fink she would lie to me but he could pass for being a White baby and I don't no what to think. Any ideas on this ?
Are my parents being racists? (there's a lot to read but i was quite annoyed sorry)?
About a two months ago i met this boy and we kept everything secret until a month ago when i introduced him to my parents and they were really rude to him and i as so shocked at there behavior. Anyway when he left my step-dad said in these words "if you bring home mixed race babies do not expect to live her let alone us to talk to you" and my mum agreed with him, also when i was about 9 he did tell me that if i bought home any black boy home he would never speak to me but i thought it was a joke and agreed and he keeps bringing the conversation up. Also about a week ago i said i was going to go to London where i go regular and my mum was fine with me going until the day when i said i was going with my boyfriend and she straight away said i couldn't go and made up some excuse about it and she always does this when i say i want to go out with him and its not because his a boy because i go out a lot with boys because one of my best friends is a boy and when i go out with him he brings all his boy friends and my mum knows this and is always fine. Also when i told my friends they seemed quite shocked and kept saying "but his black, why are you going out with him" and i was shocked because we live in a quite small town just outside london so we don't have a big ethnic background where i live and we only have 3 black people in my year and everybody seems fine with them and my parents get along with there parents so i was shocked everybody is acting like this. Also i bought him home yesterday and my 3 year old sister was there and my step-dad turns and whispers to me"don't you dare leave him alone with your sister, and make sure his not here for long) and what is even more shocking there supposed to be Christan's my step-dad is even training to become a Reverend after are local town one retires. I know my step-dad comes from a racists background but he don't even let us talk to his racists family members and calls them pathetic all the time and i haven't even met my granddad and some of my uncles. My boyfriend lives out of town and he goes to a quite big school and he is a natural flirt and i know he flirts with a lot of girls in his year because that's and when a girl who used to go his school told everyone they just kept saying "typical black person" which was rude, because they don't even know him, he is a really nice person and i'm not going to dump him! What can i do? I'm 14 btw 15 in May!

Do some white teachers treat my half black half white Grandson differently than the white kids?
I am as bright white as a sheet of copy paper. But sometimes I feel like my 8 year old Grandson is treated differently by white teachers and people in general. There are only 10 blacks in the whole big elementary school. What do you think the chances out there in the big bowl of life that this is actually happening all too often? I have always hated the race card and I don't want to pull it but sometimes I have to wonder in my shoes of experience raising my Grandson since he was 2. Am I imagining this or could he really be treated differently as it appears. Yes people do stare, as me and my white husband proudly take him everywhere with us. You can see the wheels spinning in curious minds. We can just ignore (ignorant) people but he is only an innocent child. Do black people frown on this too? I know most people don't care but there is always some who are predjudice. Also, our part of town and neighborhood is dominently white.
Would you be surprised if I say white people are not the most racist people in the world?
I am an asian american, I grew up here. To be honest I find white people are very politically correct if not the most politically correct people in the world (from my point of view). Are there are many racist white people but they are only the very minority compare the the majority of whites. But I hate to admit this but... majority of asians are racists. Only few very few minority westernized asians are not racist but vast majority of asians are racists. Are there any other people who are more racist than asians? I don't know because I have only been around white and asian people, but to be honest.... I think black people can sometimes hold a pretty big grudge towards whites. I am not saying that it is true because I haven't been around blacks that often compare to the time I've been around whites. From my personal experience I believe asians are more racist than white people. Does that surprise you?
How do I find out my race and who my real father is?
Well my mom cheated on my stepdad when he was in the gulf war fighting for freedom. The guy she was cheating with left her when she told him she was pregnant. He basically hightailed it to who knows where and when she gave birth, I came out. My stepdad came back still in uniform just to make it for the birth to find a very light skinned baby(he is dark brown and my mom is moderately brown) He still accepted me and named me after him. Well when I got to my teenage years I was informed of this. I also found out that he is married now in texas, possibly San Antonio. This could mean that not only do I have a stepmom but I could possibly have a half siblings. So I am 17(WIll be 18 in 3 months) so when would be the best time to go look for him? I am going to college to major in biology if that helps any. Now onto the race problem. My mom is 3/4 black and 1/4 indian. I heard from older siblings who actually saw him, they said he was very tall, very lightskinned(high yellow), and very handsome. I am light skinned(yellowish rather than brown light skinned), light brown eyes with a ring of green around the light brown. I was 5' 10" the last time I measured myself. What race do you think I am considering my mom is 3/4ths black and 1/4 indian and the description of my biological father. This is a picture of me, sorry if it is a bit dark... http://img391.imageshack.us/my.php?image=willec3.jpg
