If there were *more* mixed-race (whatever mixture(s) you want), there would be less of a problem. As far as being "different" goes, there are so many other factors that kids can pick on that race could be inconsequential. How many of you on the net got the "four-eyes" treatment? Or the "teacher's pet" because you were "too" smart? No matter what the racial heritage of a child, there will *always* be things other kids can pick on. And maybe, just maybe, if there were more mixed-race kids, we might be able to teach some tolerance to the other children. Mary Ann Zeszutko ihnp4!ihuxf!features
