Interracial Wedding

I think that you are wrong your daughter is a grown women and should be able to make her own decesions and times have changed the children will not be made fun of. Most of the time they are beautiful intelligent people (mariah carey and halle berry for example)

I believe it is wrong of you to not attend! This is your daughter, and she is in love. Why can`t you see that? I too am in an interracial relationship. These days people don`t have to go with their own race. Her fiancee is a person too, and he deserves the same respect that you would want from others. So what if they will have a child that is half black and half white. Noone will ever be perfect, and you should love your daughter and future son-in-law because if you don`t...you may lose your daughter in the process. You never know. If my parents weren`t behind me on my decision, then they would lose me...maybe your daughter is thinking the same thing. Did you ever think about that? Are you willing to take the chance of losing your child, a human being that you created...over a man whom she wants to marry? If you are, then thats pretty low!

What are we? in the 50`s in alabama? You should be happy that your daughter is marrying someone she loves that hopefully treats her with the respect and love she deserves. I never understood how some parents don`t condone their white daughter marrying a black groom.

Another way to think about it is this... Would you rather your daughter marry a successful, caring, black man who will provide for her and her family? or would you rather her marry an alcoholic, lazy, unambitious white man instead?

To answer your questions yes i love my daughter and i would not want her to marry a black man ever she could find a smart successful white man if she would look. I have never met a good black man they all cheat (at least in my experiences)

Cassie,
You are what is wrong with the world today. You say you are worried about your daughter`s children. You should worry about them if they will have to grow up around a racist, ignorant person like yourself. If you care about your daughter, get over your narrowminded issues. Be happy she has found someone to love her. I am sure he is a better person than you.

You`re a selfish idiot woman!

GROW UP!! If you were my mom and you didn`t come to my wedding? I wouldn`t want to see you ever! And who cares what other people think or you think for that matter. I will be living with this man! All you have to do is show up! Have some shame/decency to yourself!

Obviously, no one taught you good morals and conduct!

You`re so LAME! The lamest mom!!! YOU ARE A HORRIBLE MOTHER!!

There is nothing wrong with interracial weddings or children. I have a mixed baby. He is 2 years old, and half hispanic and half white. I understand that hispanic and black are two different races. You probably thing that the closer to white their skin is the better. But my sister is married to a black man and they have two BEAUTIFUL children that are just amazing. And their daddy is a great guy. He is a christain and he treats his family right. They are all about family time. My sister and her husband never go anywhere without their children but maybe two times a month. Point being if your daughter loves him let her go for it. Just because of their race isn`t the same doesn`t have anything to do with how they treat their families. And if you don`t go to that wedding then that will be making the biggest mistake of your life. You should support your daughter in everything she does from marrying a different race to choosing between two careers.

All I can say is you need prayer. I hope that you are not judge by the measure that you are judging. There are some horrible white men out there, wife beater, cheaters as well as black men. It does not matter what race you are there are good and bad in all. With your mentality I would not want my children around you, maybe your daughter is better off without you in her life. People like you make me ill.

Cassie,
I have met plenty of white males who have cheated also! Everything you say is wrong! Give us some good reasons why she shouldn`t marry this man! Everything bad you say about a black man...you can also find in a white male! Also anything good you have to say about a white male...you can find in a black male! You need to take time in getting to know this man, and quit judging others because people are obviously against you! You are the type of people that I don`t want around my children when I have them! I judge ignorant people like you! I hope your daughter sees everything that all of us have to say about you because she needs a lot of support for her decision! I say good luck and congratulations to Cassie`s daughter and Cassie`s daughter`s fiancee!

My daughter was just raised not to do it (interracial marriages) I think that black ppl are fine but they are for other black ppl. I also think that it is just easier for ppl to go with their own race. It just makes more sense to me, but thank you for all of your opinions. Im going to get my daughter on here and she what she thinks.

Yes, you are being unreasonable. As long as your daughter is happy then you should be too. Right now, your daughter needs you the most because planning a wedding is very stressful. You also find out who your true friends are. Interracial kids are very beautiful and you can`t help but to love and except them.

Cassie,
I sort of understand your thinking but just because you don`t believe in interracial marriage surely does not mean your daughter believes the same way. I am planning a wedding for my step-daughter this month and she is marrying a black man. I don`t personally believe in interracial marriage but i don`t want to lose her ,because of something that I have no control over. She is going to live with him for rest of her life with me or without me. I want to be a part of her life and his. Just swallow your pride and support your daughter and husband to be. Good Luck

Hello there,

I am 28 and interracial: asian, causasion, and african american and was raised by a christian parent and a jewish parent who were together for 30 years before cancer took my mother. Not only am i considered quite attractive, but also successful and well adjusted, friends with people of many cultural backgrounds who all ACCEPT and ADMIRE me. I am also enaged to the peaceful and caring man of my dreams, who happens to be of a cultural background from which we can add to the amalgamation of society that has enriched this country so greatly; he is irish. Oh, and i also speak three languages.

So what`s the problem here? i suppose it`s your lack of education or perhaps a general genetic dysfunction that is currently being removed by people like, well, me and your daughter.

My blessings to your daughter, her future husband and childern and even you. You`ll come around; we are very cute babies...i just hope it isn`t too late for your daughter to accept you back into her life. You are lucky to even be alive for such an event. I wish my mother was.

Marriage isn`t something for anyone to "believe in" except for the two individuals that are committing themselves to each other. End of discussion. You may not like it, but it is not a "belief" in that it exits. Belief is something based in faith.

Really, this country needs a better education system pronto!

Sorry, was so flabbergasted that I typed exits instead of exists:

You`re a MORON!

Ok. If you think so, but the overwhelming majority of people on this message board support what I have said. Whoever and whatever you are, you obviously lack the education to say anything more intelligent and I pity you. I am so pleased my loving, interracial parents allowed me the benefit of what you unfortuanetly have missed.

Have a lovely day!

Ultimately, this day is not about you, regardless of how you feel. It is selfish and unfair to cause your daughter pain on her special day. Your problem will be resolved if you choose to put your daughter before yourself. In short, offer her the unconditional love that a mother should.

I feel that you should go to your daughters wedding. It is wrong to not go just because her soon to be husband is black. My parents were against me being with a black man in the beginning. I have two biracial children and they are excepted by both races. My father has been racist for 60 years. Its not easy to over come this. He finally met my Fieancee and didnt look at him as a color and looked at him as a man. He now aproves us to get married and is very happy for us. There are all kinds of people in this world. Good and bad in every race. Its the bad ones like my sons father that ruin it for others. My fieancee is the sweetest man and love me and my children for who we are. He is one of the good black men in this world. Please give your daughters soon to be husband a chance. If you dont go to her wedding she may never forgive you and your children should be number one in your life. Stand by her side and love her for who she is accept her for who she is. You cant stop loving your child beacause she choose to marry a man of another race. God bless you and her. I hope you have a change of heart about going to the wedding. Feel free to email me if you like.
