Yes I can handle the truth - but can you?

Ok folks- what started out as a request for advise has turned into a bashing session. I don't appreciate being called a moron, a jerk, or accused of being prejudiced.

Obviously I have touched a major raw nerve here. For that my sincere apologies. If you could step back a bit, take a deep breath and calm down, you would see what I was presenting.

You may not like to hear it- but this is the truth. A young white girl pregnant by a young black man is not something that a lot of people jump up and down with joy about.

FORTUNATELY, my friend (including me and my husband) have never had a problem with black, white, purple, green, .. people are people.

It is devastating in general for a parent to learn that their under age daughter (not mine- she is only a baby) is pregnant.

My friend is shocked, scared, angry, sad and every other mixed emotion you can imagine. Also, her daughter was set to go off to college in the fall (on a full scholarship). Now she is giving that away because she is pregnant.

Who can HONESTLY say that if they had the chance to do it over, they would have wanted to be a teen mom?

The fact that the baby is biracial doesn't mean that he/she isn't god's creation. ALL children are precious in god's eyes (AND MINE). Yet, it does have social consequences.

HIS parents are not talking to HER because she is white. They do not want to accept a half white baby. HER grandparents want to disown her. HER father doesn't want a half black grandchild..and so on and so forth.

You can call it what you want- don't direct your anger at ME. It is society that causes racial discord. NOT ME!

Lastly- the baby is due in September.

Please stop the blasting. I am in no intentions trying to hurt anyone. I would like the same respect.
