Depends on the parents. You would be surprised how powerful good parenting is. My mom & dad always let us mingle with both sides of the family and we were lucky enough to feel love on both sides. in the end we were given too much culture but at least we know where we come from and in return we know where we are going!

I´m biracial and I don´t have identity problems, probably because I´m not obviously biracial. I have experienced a few situations where people thought my dad was my stepfather just because he´s dark-skinned and I´m white, but it didn´t contribute to any identity issues.

NO! I do not believe this to be true. The only way this can happen is if the child(ren) do not know about both of their heritages. Then they will question what they are. If they know what they are from then that is they way they will present themselves. I am a mix of Haitian and African-American, yet i am light-skinned. Alot of times i get mistaken for being Hispanic or mulatto. When people ask I tell them what I am and it does not bother me for them thinking what they may. I know what I am and that is all that matters. If the child(ren) know this then I do not think it will or could be a problem in the future...

How can they? There are more and more biracial children every day. Soon other is going to be the most dominant race.

It all depends on how they are raised. If they grow up hearing derogatory statements about the other half of their family they will tend to sway to the race that is the most supportive of them. If there is harmony in the family and both families of both races share equally in the upbringing of the child the child is more likely to be a well balanced adult and be able to put less stress on the race factor.

Not really. Problems persist due to ignorance that is taught. There is no pure bred race anymore which means we are all biracial.

ABSOLUTLY, If you choose to go against the Bible and what it says, First, as parents you best worry about your problems that you will answer for in the future. It is not fair to bring a child into this world that cannot control the rest of his or her life, because of poor judgement and sin on your part. It is wrong, wrong, wrong, that because of your ignorance that child will NEVER be totally accepted by anyone but you.!

It depends on where they get their identity. If they relate to society sure. If they learn their identity from their family, most likely not.
