hey im having a black/Mexican mix baby girl ?

[jeni18]

is it bad that i worry how my Hispanic boyfriends family will treat our baby ?????

[sprmom87]

I am white, my oldest is part Salvadorian and my youngest two are part Mexican. My ex-mother-in-law accepts my current husband and two other children and is truly happy for me, and my current in-laws took in my oldest with open arms and treat her as if she is blood.

I am Dominican & my man is black. My family will treat this baby no different than the other babies. They don't really care about what the baby is. Latinos are very family oriented. Even in a rare case where they may feel some kind of may about mixing races, all that flies out the window when they see & hold the baby. Be sure of yourself & do not tolerate any act of ignorance. As mothers to mixed children, we need to prepare ourselves & put our foot down. I will dig in *** if something is said about my baby even if its a joke. Oh & as for the language thing, I understand where you may feel like they are looking at you diff but it is their job to make you feel welcomed & relaxed; that can be done without words.

I wouldn't worry yourself over it. Im white and both of my children are half black.  I was disowned by my mother's entire family and most of my father's side (except his father, stepmother and 1 of my uncles). I could honestly careless about it, I wasnt close to them anyhow.  At first my mom was pissed and told me she never wanted a black grandchild. I said so be it, your losing me and any grandchildren I will bare. She eventually came around but you can tell she is still bothered by what the rest of the family thinks. I find it odd tho seeing how only my oldest brother has white children, everyone else is mixed with Puerto Rican or Islander. With my oldest son's father's side some of them didnt like me either. The day we told his family his aunt said "get this white b**** out of my house". She didnt even know me to be so rude! Ive dealt with stupidity everywhere, sad to say that its 2014 and still exists.  I just leave it as it is, stupidity and ignorance. Isnt going to change how I live my life lol long as your happy who cares!!

I'm Mexican and  my family wouldn't care at all they would love that baby no matter what! In my opinion mixed babies are so dang cute! :)

[todayyyyistheday]

Mexican families and Latino families are very family oriented.  They are gonna love your baby!!! I wouldn't be worried ☺

Just hold ya head up high hun it shouldn't matter to people what race or ethnicity any child is guna b as long as it healthy that's all they should care about and if they don't like it its there loss x your baby will b beautiful

[jeni18]

oh ok but they be acting wierd around me cause i dont speak spanish and they do

[jesKelley]

Im puerto rican and dominican. And my vhildren are mixed with black. Its not going to be easy. Especially if your first generation like me. I always think about it like this. If anyone has a problem with my children then they have a problem with me. I know its easier said then done but honestly id just say **** them and thats it. Move on they would be missing out on some beautiful children!

If they treat u good, why would they treat the baby different just bc she's mixed?

[nbarrera1989]

My boyfriend is Hispanic and his daughter is mixed with black but I have never seen my boyfriend's family nor my family ever treat her any differently. She's our little princess. We love her regardless.  Your boyfriend's family shouldn't treat her any different because of what race she is mixed with. Just keep your head up and hope for the best.

If people care, then they are racist a**holes!

oh ok thank you

Im sorry you're worrying about that. But honestly im mexican and in my family family is very important.  No matter what.  I don't know his family but in mine they would still love the baby and spoil him or her but they would make jokes or comments.  A niece of mine is half mexican  half black.  She's a great kid and my family has comments to my brother here and there.  Nothing mean per se but not something I would appreciate either.
