  • Raising two boys in the south, this multi-racial, cross-cultural, and multi-lingual blended-family works hard and plays hard. Chris and Donella's older son Dylan-who they co-parent with Chris’ ex-wife- is a straight A student who loves soccer and cheering for Real Madrid. Their younger son, Miles, attends a Mandarin Chinese immersion school where he loves to play violin and compete on the swim team. Whether English, French (Chris’ native-tongue), or (a remedial version of...) Mandarin, their home is always filled with music and love.

    I'm half Norwegian and Half African American, I am a pale tan with very long, and only slightly wavy hair. My Norwegian family says I am too dark, my African American family says I'm too light. But my mother loves me just the way I am. Thank you two for being wonderful parents in a world full of so much hate.

      The Erica Adventures , I agree with your comment it is now 2019 I don’t know how I got to Oregon, still searching for the answers. I was 17 and for the first time in my life I was around all white people, I was raised in Philadelphia Pennsylvania never had any problem with anyone because of their skin color seriously going to all White high school they never saw a black person because the town was so small and there were not many around. I am married my kids father who is white, his family never really excepted me and did what was expected, for our children I think God for that at least. RIP they are at rest today. After we separated and divorced I decided I was not going to give them where I had to deal with in Oregon they are very smart intelligent and well grounded at the same time giving them their freedom as most parents do when kids grow up they get married and make decisions I may not like some of them and now that I am 64 with all that I had gone through when they were younger the one thing I do believe, something my grandmother told me growing up as a child, you will reap what you sow. I like the little video, and I am working hard to get back into a community to make change. Only in America. God over everything. Thanks for sharing, because here in the community I live in , Many have crossed over.

      Hello! I have mixed family too. My children are twins boy and girl set . I had to battle racism a lot over the the years. I am a single mom, but I had alot of help along the way. I am a black woman who has been through a lot over the years. I am divorced and my children are 38 years old. I have battle so racism in every area of my life. From church to family on each side, scool and college and jobs I've had. It's not easygoing through it but I made so far. I know was God keeping his hand me and my children. I could had it was not for him. I found myself happy in love with a man and married him for to leave in 5 weeks after marrying him too. I never thought I would be going something like that at all. Iam still by God's grace. Thank you for time. Enjoy your life together all of you.

      I was thinking a similar thing. As a black woman, I would love to find a man that would just love me like that.
      I think God's been trying to tell me; to think out the box, with dating. Because a lot of black men are just afraid of getting into a serious relationship. Because they've been hurt before. I do like the fact that a lot of times in interracial relationships there is a conscious effort to really get to know the person and their values.

    I married a beautiful Mexican lady when I was in college and was asked by one of my instructors (a black lady) what it was like to be in an interracial relationship. I was taken aback because I’d never thought of our relationship as interracial before that. I certainly didn’t care. My first crush in grade school was on a classmate who was black as night! (I’d never seen a black person before that, which made her all the more beautiful!) I never needed anyone to tell me who I should find attractive. It’s a personal thing and you don’t need anyone else’s approval.

    It is tiring. I always rip them one and let them know that I am not a part of their cult.
    Maybe it is time to invent some identifying piece of clothing/accessory that lets people know your are a safe, non-bigoted, non-misogynistic, non-homophobe so that others can feel safe around you and know that you can be counted on to say and do the right thing.
    Maybe it is a button that identifies you as a sanctuary person?

    Somehow these videos always hit home for me. My daughter has a Black common law husband and they have a biracial daughter together...my sweet Granddaughter. When my daughter was beginning to get interested in boyd, the little White boys wouldn't have anything to do with her (she said) because she was not the body type they wanted. Our home area is very racially diverse, so she had friends from all races. As she grew older, she found that Black men appreciated her for who she is, and that's how this all came about. I just want her to be happy and loved, and she is. Our family is not what people would consider the 1950's style family. We are different from that model in a million ways, but we do love each other, and this all works for us.

      @Gamesake2 Před 6 lety +41

      Samira A it's the White mom and dad with 2.2 kids and a dog...supposedly perfect family where everything goes as planned. Kids are A students, go to college, graduate and become employed in a high paying job and then marry and start their own family. that is how the television portrayed families then. In fact, parents didn't even sleep in the same bed on television...they had twin beds. You wonder how they managed to have kids that way. I can't say why they thought that was a perfect family...I don't think I really knew any families like that...even when I was a kid in the 1950's.

    • @samiraa3671
      @samiraa3671 Před 6 lety +12

      Yes, it seems that interracial marriages were not common in the 1950s, especially in America. Times have changed alot since then. Today, especially in big cities, every corner you turn you encounter interracial couples, and even gay couples with their children.
      In regards to TV's portrayal of the perfect family, well, every society i'm aware of considers those things you mentioned ideal, with the exception of the color of the family. I'm assuming you live in a western country, so i wouldn't be surprised if white familes were mostly included as the ideal since they are the majority. In terms of couples sleeping separately, i've seen that too in societies that are too conservative to display PDA on T.V.

      The stream of 'black' people that you're referring to are from countries that the demonic French/European colonists invaded, then exploited and are destroying (till this day), hence, the reason why 'blacks' are migrating to those jurisdictions in a desperate attempt to hopefully gather a miniscule of the wealth and resources that were wickedly taken from them.

    Welcome to West Columbia SC. As a black woman I have seen a lot of growth ; with how people treat other.
    There are more interracial couples. And a lot more people from different countries and other parts of United States. Who live here because of their jobs. So it's good to have a modern mix of people. Am grateful we where in a military family. I was exposed to people of different races from different parts of the country.
    For the most part people are polite. And mind there business. And try and help one other. But your always going to have a few people with that old south mentality. That are going to test you.
    You just got to know who you are in Christ. Live your life with respect. This is a beautiful family. They just living there truth in love.
