Is it racist to raise your children to not date a certain race?

That’s a really hard question. Love is love... but cultural differences do exist and a person should be aware.
@DarkHeaven It's actually very simple
@LovelyMel I couldn’t do it... limit my child’s choices for love. To me it is, segregationist at the very least.

@BeefySenpie As I said, I couldn’t do it. I’m currently in a multicultural lesbian relationship. If she was raised that way, I’m not sure I’d call it racist, but I’d be heartbroken.
@LovelyMel I agree. I think that’s beautiful and right. I’m just not sure I’d call the other racist. Maybe we’re just parsing words here. I agree with how you think on the subject. 🖤

@LovelyMel To coach your children to not date outside their race is wrong and immoral. We are both in complete agreement. It’s labeling it racist that I’m not sure about. Either way. It sounds like you’re a great mom. Peace and love. 🖤
@LovelyMel Never a problem. The subject is near and dear to me. I’ve actually been spit in my face over who I choose to love and you are making the world at better place, one little life at a time. Light & love.

@BeefySenpie Please don’t misunderstand. I’ve been with four girls over my life that were at least one quarter black or more (including my current girlfriend.) I’m in no way suggesting any kind of segregation. I promise. ☮️

@LovelyMel You’re going to make me cry. If I could hug you right now I would. Thank you... for not turning it to hate... when so many do. 🖤🤗

@LovelyMel Never. I always fight. Peacefully. I almost didn’t get to graduate because of a civil rights issue in my school that they weren’t taking serious. I staged a walk out my senior year. My parents weren’t happy about it but I will never stay silent. Too much is at stake and too much lost. 🖤
