Need help about racial dispute in my family?

I suggest that you stand your ground with this one; you are doing the right thing. If you give in to your family just to keep them talking to you and keep them happy you will be setting a bad example for your daughter (and any other children you may have). That bad example is that black people should be treated differently, which we both know is not true.

There is nothing wrong with your daughter dating a black person and she has every right to do so. If there is nothing wrong with the boy other than the colour of his skin then you have an obligation as a Mother to respect her decision.

As for your family, if they are going to act with such ignorance then you should allow them to do so on their own. Best case scenario will be that after a while they will realise how unfair they are being and will begin to talk to you again. Worst case scenario is that your children will not be subjected to racist values.

You should be proud of your daughter that she sees people equally.

this is pretty common. one family doeant get along with the other side because of 1 person. is it that they dont like the guy or is it that he is black? ive noticed that alot of rasit like people ive known never really given the person a chance or just ignored them rudly. i know it hurts to see your family apart from you. it may be best to give it some time or talk to them about it and try to explain how your daughter really likes him. i know some people dont care for blacks, asians, hispanics, ect. and its hard to get them to be okay with them. some just think that they are all the same-which is not true. try to explain this to them... i really hope i helped.

if you were a black woman asking why your family hates the white person who is dating a family member everyone on here would be telling you to be patient with them, to try to understand they have their culture they are concerned about, etc. but because you are a white family, people call them racists.

i have lived in other countries, it is always the same issues with blacks, blacks/french, blacks/ germans,

blacks/ asians, it is always a black issue where-ever you travel.. nobody is going to accept him unless he proves himself.

you cannot go out on a limb and then expect nothing to break.

here's the truth, they wanted her to stick with whites, he will have to prove he is hard working and moral, black guys gave themselves the reputation they got.

if he is a truly a good guy you will all know it soon. many blacks don't like whites, hence the high crime committed against whites by blacks. i lived in England and other countries, its the same everywhere but Americans are much more open about speaking their mind.

Hi there, sorry for what you're going through. Your family are very ignorant and need to change with the times. What matters is your daughter has found a guy that makes her happy, if it's not good enough for them then to hell with all of them (excuse me). You're not here to please others. Wave bye bye to your ignorant, old fashioned family. No harm intended, just angry on your behalf. Good luck hun :-)
