I am thinking of moving to the mainland due to personal reasons (expenses, divorce, etc) but i have bi-racial children.... so here is the thing....my family is trying to discourage me from coming... saying that I will have it really hard being that i have bi-racial children.. (the loves of my life).....I come from a small island where we have races of all kinds... so it has never really been a problem for me before.. so tell me...how bad is it out there???

Come to Australia...we don't have a race. We're too lazy and laidback.

I see bi-racial children everywhere....and they are beautiful! I think it is a fairly common thing now a days!

It depends on where you go. I've never seen it as a problem here in northeast ohio, or in central Georgia. Most places in America are tolerant, but there are still a few that refuse to look beyond the 17/1800s, sadly.

Depends on where you are moving to here.

SF bay area is a good place to be...the young people are completely color-blind and most adults with some maturity are too!!!

I have bi racial children too, and it all depends where you move to big cities that does not matter..small towns with only one or two races sometimes are a problem

There are mixed races all over in the mainland...I really don't think you will have that much a problem

Come on... You'll fit in in numerous places. Arizona's becoming quite the melting pot for cultures and races. I think sticking to either the west or east coast will be better, but I don't think this is as big an issue as it once was.

Just don't move too near your own family.

in general it should be ok but if yer neighbor is a bigot (yes they are still around) then it will be a pain but over all it should be fairly well at least i would think so over all

Live where you wanna live and just carry a rifle. If any idiots give you trouble, blow their stinking brains umm, wait a second, I'm being violent again. I doubt you will have any problems.
