Parents beat daughter for dating black man

Mississippi mom claps back at daughter's critics on interracial dating

Q: My daughter is 14 and is getting interested in boys, and she seems more attracted to guys outside of our race. I am not a racist person but I would like to discourage this for one simple reason: That a lot of people aren't fair to a mixed couple and I don't want her to suffer for this. As I write this it sounds like I'm prejudiced, but I really don't want her to be in pain as a result of this. Is there a way of discouraging these relationships without seeming prejudiced? Plain and simple. According to the American Heritage Dictionary, prejudice is defined as "an adverse judgment or opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge or examination of the facts. I understand your concern for the social difficulties that a mixed couple may face, but these tend to be influenced by old, antiquated notions. In addition, you must take into account the possibility that in your daughter's social situation mixed couples may not receive special treatment or prejudice from their peers. Kids today more frequently have the chance to get to know children of different races, religions and ethnic backgrounds, an opportunity which many of their parents did not have. Either way, I can guarantee that your daughter will not understand your position.
