Well seeing as how my dad is black and my mother is white And have been together happily and lovingly for umm about 25 years I would say that it would definitely work out and as for the children I speak first hand when I say that we do not suffer or get put down because of it...we are loved and treated as everyone else is and as for being pick on everyone at some point in time in their life has or will be picked on no matter what race they are white, black, hispanic, chinese whatever it happens to anyone and everyone...Discrimination and hatred isn't just limited to one specific race (mixed ppl) it happens to all races and unless people change it will continue to be like that for years and years to come.

They can work. Almost my entire family was based on it. The child can be be-littled, can be put down, can be insulted, and can be looked down upon. But that can go for anyone whether or not they are mixed. I'm mixed and never had a problem with it. But if any of those things happened to me I wouldn't have care anyways. I don't care what other people think. I'm proud of who I am and where I come from.

only by pathetic ignorant people. I believe that a mixed marriage will work if those involved are seriously in love with each other and do not care what others think. As far as their children.... I don't believe they will suffer. We are in the 21st Century. Jungle Fever, or mixed relationships, have been around for quite a while.

yeah, mixed marriage will work. if you mean marriage between two diferent races... as long as love is in the air and they stay to each other, and the children are born from same set of parents just that they are of different color...
if you mean mixed marriage because children are born from different sets of parents, and they live in the same home, a great effort should be done by both parents to accomplish a healthy sound environment for the sake of the children.
as regards the discrimination put on by the society, well, it depends on the moral situation of the place... so, those who are into mixed marriage might as well migrate to place where discimination is a thing of the past...

A hundred years ago, no, a mixed marriage would have had loads of problems both socially and with their children. But now, no one cares. My husband is part Crow Indian, part German. No one cared in the least that he was 'mixed.' And I'm Irish, so now we're mixing it up even more and still, honestly, no one cares. I think an African American with a white person might startle people right at first, but ultimately, no one cares if the person who you love has a bit more melanin in their skin than you. It's fine.

Totally up to the couple whether it will work.
Society will be society and some will look down upon it, but it's up to the couple and the child whether or not to take it with a grain of salt. (ignore it)
Besides, it's so common nowdays to see mixed children that most people, in my area at least, don't bat an eye.

I was married to a white man and I have 2 biracial kids who are beautiful.
The marriage didn't work but it had nothing to do with the mixed part. I'm still good friends with him and that was the problem we made better friends than marriage partners.
I have of course run into assholes as far as the kids go in particular one man telling me it was wrong to have a mixed child and my answer was it's only wrong because YOU think it's wrong.

My children are "mixed" and they have no problems at all! They're 11, 9 and 6. We live in a pretty wealthy area and the school is mostly white. They have no issues and are actually pretty popular. Everybody know them.

Speaking from my own experience, it really doesnt matter. I dont really care what people think of me and my parents are still very much in love after twenty-five years. It doesnt really matter to me what people see from the outside, but how I feel on the inside. I like being different from other people, because I have a wider perspective of things. I also have a year round tan, so I never have to pay for mine.

Not sure what you mean by mixed.....but I believe anyone who gets married and is in love should do everything possible to make it work. The kids will be happy if the parents are happy.
