Q: Problem With Someones Post!!!

Hi, I typed in biracial babies in the search box up above and a few subjects came up.I clicked on one of them, and was suprised to see how racist some people are.I read a post where somebody wrote that biracial babies were the "cutest", and I have to say that that is not always true lol.I have seen some of the ugliest mixed babies and some of the cutest, I think it all depends on the parents genes.My daughter is a light colored baby, but she is mixed of 5 different heritages and gets mistaken for a hispanic child often because of her olive skin, and she is beautiful!!I just have a problem with people running around trying to make themselves feel better about having a mixed child by putting children of nonmixed races down.There are many people in this world that aren't mixed of something who are very beautiful.Almost everyone in america is mixed of some european blood though, but I know when most people say mixed they mean black/white...The only reason I was looking into a biracial board is because my bf and I were planning on conceiving a baby eventually and he is hispanic while I am white(european mutt racially) and I was just looking for people to relate to.But nvm I dont want to relate to people who are racist against any race.As long as you know that your baby is adorable that is all that matters, but dont put other kids down!!

ok,for one,this is a teen prgancy forum. #2 no one was putting other races down.Some people just think mixed kids are cuter.That is in no way being racist or putting other races down

Not everyone here is racist...As far as I know most of us here arent..--i myself cant talk about people who have mixed babies ...Because my son is mixed--i am white and my fiance is fillipino..--

but your post is seriously going to cause some drama..Because for one you made it seem like you didnt want to post here because "we" are all racist here..Well sweetie we arent...Maybe you should have came and gotten to know us before you judged us because of a post from the past...I myself havent had any trouble with racism since i've been here and thats been almost 3 and half years ago...Its not my choice weather you stay here or not..Because seriously if you didnt like us because the post ..Then why did you waste your sweet little time making this rude post...

--anyways ..Have a great day...And learn not to judge people for silly little things..Because its not going to get you far in life..

That is all you teenagers are is a bunch of drama.I was replying to a post that someone had written about biracial babies that was putting down other children of different races on a different board.I wasn't calling everyone a racist just a certain someone but I am new and didn't know where to put the comment, so I apologize for putting it on the wrong board and offending some people.I dont care if this causes drama or not, everything offends teenage mothers for some reason.Plus I never said I wasn't interested in posting here, I said I am not interested in speaking about emotional subjects such as race with people.I am not a preggo teen but I was at one time, and I do have some good advice to offer on some subjects.Btw don't try to talk down to me by calling me sweetheart!!If you peeps hate drama so much then why do you even reply back to me if you know it will start crap!

Yah, I remember that post from like, months back and there was no racism in there. I remember someone had stated that mixed babies were so cute and most people went on to agree or say what mixed race their own children are. I don't see why the need for a whole new topic.

I never saw anything on putting down other races in that topic. To me, you interpreted things the wrong way and blew it out of proportion.

haha and you are being mature?


Um I think not...S.W.E.E.T.H.E.A.R.T..Coming to a teen pregnancy forum and saying that teen moms are offended by everything...Well I dont know where you got that but your wrong..I am rarely offended by anything..And the only reason I posted back was to inform you that we arent all racist here ..And that some of us here actually have mixed children...And if you would have taken my post into consideration it was pretty much telling you that it was okay for you to post here...That we werent going to jump down your throat about having or thinking about having a mixed baby..There are many people in this world that are racist...And you will run into those types of people all the time..But the best thing you can do is ignore them!!...And making a post the way you did was just asking for someone to jump down your throat so dont smart off to us for something you asked for..You stuck us into the same boat saying we all were racist when in reality we arent...So sorry to burst your bubble..But you've only made it worst by your last post talking about "teen mothers"..Which you say you were ..Which makes me wonder ..Because if you were once one ..Then why are you talking crap about us..Because wouldnt that make everything you said be about yourself also?

I totally hate the word 'peeps'. Peeps are actually a marshmallow candy (that is gross).

As for drama, I think this post has done little to 'avoid' drama.

Not everyone in here is a 'teen mother'
i am almost 25 y/o and I just gave birth to my first child in .March of 2006. A lot of us here are not teen mothers. We're here to support and give advice to those who need it. And as for those here that are teen mothers....Don't catagorize them all in one bucket. They are all different, so don't stereotype. The ones here that I know are great mothers and love their kid/s.
My advice to you....A newb shouldn't come in here thinking they are all high and mighty as you just have. It makes you look bad. Take it easy sweetheart.

My kids are mixed and I think they are cute but hey I guess im racist according to your post you dont know us so take a leap oh and before you threaten me bout being racist im mixed.......

Btw
someone stated they thought mixed babies were cuter and they are allowed to make an opinion doesnt mean that person is racist...

Mixed means any race infused with another race/culture read up

Hey, I wasn't calling anybody a racist, I meant the comments were racist!!As I said, I wrote on the wrong board and didn't even take the date it was posted into consideration bc I didnt see it!!I was just putting my two cents in to that girl but not meaning to say it to you girls over here.If you have mixed children then you can't possibly be racist, but by saying mixed children are the "cutest" is not true at all and can be taken in a different way(especially on the net), kind of like saying nonmixed children are not as cute etc.....I am a very nice person, and I was simply stating that I would not put up with any crazy statements towards any race, my motto is all babies are beautiful no matter what race it is.I felt it was a putdown to nonmixed people.Btw I was a teenmom and always will be at heart and didnt mean to put teen mothers down even though it sounds like I did.I just feel that some of you took my post way out of proportion by lashing back at me when I just said that I wouldnt put up with racism.Btw peeps is an abbreviation for people, ya know, when your trying to type fast.Oh and jillian sweetheart, I never took your post in a bad way but when girls call other girls sweetie, it usually means their talking down to the other girl...Another thing, I know not all ppl on here are teenmoms!Why else would I be on here lol...

u said in ur first post that u have seen some ugly mixed kids but u just stated that u believe all babies are beautiful. How can that be. U just went back on what u said early and changed it around to seem nice. And why are u worried about it puttin nonmixed people down? Didnt u say u were mixed?
