My wife's parents were all smiles and sunshine, but gave her a crapload of money on the basis that when her white devil husband divorces her she'll have something to fall back on. We bought new computers, a couch and her a supercycle ten speed with some of the money.
My parents, didn't give a crap, even my racist mother. As far as they were concerned anyone who loved their son was worthy of their love. My mother has made great efforts to make her feel welcome in Canada, as have my sisters. I have a hard time convincing her my parents are actually quite fond of her, says alot about what she hears on the other side of things. But, luckily, she hates her parents so who cares?
My mother is very supportive. My father? a little skeptic and untrusting. My racist brother can go pound some sand.
nevermind:
I grew up pretty blue collar and my sisters were influenced by my mother more than my father, who detests racism. But I think having a Chinese sister in law has pretty well done away with that.
both lots of parents love us and the grand children we gave them
My Chinese in-laws are very supportive and love their granddaughter, (sometimes too much).
As to my own parents? I only wish I had married young enough so I could know.
No,not at all,My parents are supportive,my dad just has one request,he should speak some basic Mandarin,so that I can communicate with him.My sister and my brother are supportive too,they just said,too bad, it seems we need to learn more English which is hard .LOL
My husband's family are all supportive, his old brother's ex was a Korean girl. and His grandma always tell the boys,She wants to have mixed grandchildren.
We are so glad that both of our families are open minded and supportive. especially my mother in law,she visited us three times in 9 months and she encourages the rest of family and her friends to visit China as well.

Yes ,I am so lucky. to be honest,I did not find many blacks are attractive,Crimo,sorry to say that,Just honest. I think Obama is good looking as a black guy, but he's too old for me plus both of us are TAKEN lol
nevermind:
Yeah, I should have mentioned my mother actually took Mandarin lessons when I was engaged. My Dad told me later that she just wanted to be able to say "Congratulations" to my wife when they met, but the thought was nice. It think she adapted well, her parents were pretty stereoptypical Northern Irish people, not the most open minded people, but she did okay and to this day I don't think she cares that my wife is a Chinese woman.
nevermind:
Hey maggie, just so you know what you said to crimo is pretty rude phrased the way you did, but I realize you weren't trying to be offensive.
A better way to say it is "I'm not attracted to black guys" becasue then you are not implying they are unattractive, you're just saying you don't have a preference for them.
maggiegirly:
Thanks a lot,Never mind.
Crimo,sorry, I was not trying to be offensive and you are a cool guy,a free thinker
I forgot to say that some NBA black guys are attractive,like Carmelo Anthony ,his smile is sweet LOL
Maybe censor your parents? Then their opinion no longer exists. Problem solved!
And no you shouldn't marry NBA Players. Unless you want to be a single mom.
I might end up getting married in China...but marriage kinda scares me LOL.
I'm 36 and my gf is 10 years younger...Sometimes I really want a child...but also think that I'm too old for that...She's a Dongbei girl, her parents re separated and her mom has nothing against foreigners. I have to meet her this winter...so no problems whatsoever, just gotta make up my mind
Religion probably has more of an influence in the west.
It's history repeating itself really. Back in the day it was families and clans dictating which families and clans you can marry into. Just replace clan with race.
