should they tell you that? NO...can they tell you that? yes. I personally think that is wrong to be racist like that but until you are moved out of the house you pretty much have to do what they say. you can disobey them sure but if you get caught u'll just make it worse on yourself.

No they shouldn't, but some parents do based on the way and times they were raised in. It's their belief and you can't change it but it doesn't make it right. We look to our parents for leadership but sometimes we need to teach them somethings too. Race will always be a sour topic when it comes to basically anything. In the end you use your own judgment, but you shouldn't disrespect your parents to get your point across so if you have to not date until you're out of their home, that may be a sacrifice you take for sticking to what you believe in.

In this day and age promoting racism is the last thing someone needs to be doing. Follow your heart.
Don't go out looking for specific races to date just to go against your parents will, but if you meet someone and you like him, do what you gotta do.
Besides, anybody people hate always end up in their family. If your folks say "don't marry a black guy" you are gonna end up coming home with a bi-racial baby in five years and they will have no one to blame but themselves.

Your parents can not tell you who you can and cannot date. You need to find yourself and do what you want if you want to date someone outside your race then do it. Your parents might not be happy but you need to experience other and different things.

This is how racism begins........
God made us all human with different shades of color........you should be allowed to love all of God's creations.
There are jerks in every color in the rainbow.

i don't think that it's fair for you parents to tell you that you can't date outside your race. you can't help who you like...

ultimately its your decision.....they aren't going to like it and there will be a battle when you bring someone from another race home to them....but you have to do what makes you happy....
