I didn't back Markus at all. I stated my personal opinion.
I didn't blame the kids either. It isn't their fault that mom and dad are more concerned with their personal agenda than that of the children born of their agenda.
Statistically speaking, I can say that mixed race children are more often than all others, left to split parental relationships. This has been a problem since the 1980's and it's 10 times worse today. I know girls today, even a fairly distant family member, who CANNOT rightfully say who the father/s of their children is/are. I could simply refer to them as whores, but that won't fix the problem either. Many children today don't even know who their own father is... How many ways can we say "sad" before attempting to instill some real responsibility into kids and young adults today?
When my father was a teen, he didn't know anyone like this. He sees it today and asks what went wrong with America... He surmises that one big problem has been desegragation. The number of black/white children when he was a boy was almost zero. And the number of children without two parents taking care of them, though he was one himself for a time(mostly thanks to WWII, since his father left to fight) was also very low.
The problem does exist in every race, black being the most common per capita. It happens all to often with all races, but with mixed races, it's literally in the 70+ percentile. That's just sad. Hence, I wouldn't ever choose to take that chance.
Parents can't always be good parents anymore. Much of why lies within the liberalism which is and has been consuming our nation since the 1960's, really sprouting in the 90's and clearly "relieving" or "absolving" people from their duties as parents, MERELY by filling out paperwork, long after the child has begun to suffer. When I was a kid, liberalism was still growing roots and my parents were highly concerned over the matter. With that, they took time to explain their concerns to all 9 of their children. Still, I have a sister who failed to listen to any reason, and had 2 daughters who essentially do not know their fathers. They at least know WHO, but I doubt they know much more, like where daddy is today. As if that isn't bad enough, both her kids have kids of their own, and her oldest is only 21. Neither is married. Yeah, it's a problem everywhere.
Still, statistics are pretty well organized today and "mixed" children parents have a far higher rate of failure where relationships are concerned. Much of that may be because the families of each side often see things very differently and often don't want those relationships to work, giving reason for those families to make clear attempts to break them up... But if you're gonna jump into the lake, you'd better already know how to swim, or to learn REAL FAST! Ultimately, it comes down to the decisions made by the two parents involved, not the kids, and not the families. Why anyone would foolishly put themselves into such a "breakup prone" situation, I cannot answer.
Some of those relationships work out fine... But the number that does completely pales in comparison that don't.
