I try not to be a racist, but I do not wish to have interracial grandchildren someday.

I am not going to come out and say you are wrong, as you like what you like. But when it comes to your children, they also like what they like. So if they marry outside their race then you need to be excepting.

I think you have every right to feel the way you do. However, im sure as a mother you want happiness for your child, and if that person who made her happy happens to be another race, it would mean a lot to her to have your love and support. Another thing about interacial relationships is the negative comments and harassment from the general public. We can all pretend its a happy little world, but deep down most white people (especially us southerners) do not want to see an interacial relationship. We are raised up that its not right. Not to say that it isnt right, but life is hard when your dating someone of another race. Bottom line, you are entitled to hold on to your beliefs without feeling guilty, but I would hope that acceptance would prevail over your feelings if that situation did ever occur. Stand by your beliefs..even if you stand alone.

I must say it is! my mom refusesd to talk to me because my boyfriend is not white! I do not know if you would do that or not, but interracial children are so beautiful! I do not know how someone can be like that in 2006. You should be happy of you daughters, whether the person they marry is the same race or not. It is their decision not yours.

Personally, I see nothing wrong with interracial relationships. But if that's how you feel, I understand that everyone thinks differently and have doubts about certain things. But if she does marry someone outside of her race, treat them with respect, and don't try to choose for her. She may feel differently than you, and it's her life.

Yes, you are wrong. It's none of your business who they chose to marry. And besides, are you honestly saying that you would love your grandchildren even one iota less because they looked a little different from you?
If the answer is yes, then I truly despair.
If the answer is no, then you are not a bad person, just a little superficial.

I agree and understand.
I would hate to see my kids marry outside their race.
I know it is wrong to be racist.
But I am not sure if I could have the same love for grandchildren that were more afro looking.
I have learned to respect my feelings and not question if they are right or wrong. They may not be politically correct, but they are ME.

Maybe not racist, but prejudiced and bigoted, sorry! It is what it is. Shouldn't you hope that you're daughters marry kind and loving men who love them and will be good husbands and fathers no matter what color their skin????

you can hope what you want, but you should respect their decision if they choose to marry someone outside their race and try not to influence their decision if you choose to be selfish.

It's wrong if you think no other race is good enough for your daughter(s).

No, it's not wrong of you, also you can discuss with them , but also you should respect and accept their decision.
