Well, the children's views are encouraging.

Cool that interracial relationships are advertising tools now I guess...

I'm 26 and my wife had to point out the "controversy" to me too. Some people have to much anger and free time.

I actually did this with my own kids, showing them the ad and asking them what they thought. They were confused when I said it was controversial, and downright shocked when I told them why. Definitely gives me hope that some attitudes will eventually die out--literally.

I would guess that lots of kids these days have at least one friend, cousin or neighbor who comes from mixed-race parents. Less common in our parents' generation. The same way I never grew up with anti-gay prejudice because I had out gay peers as early as middle school, kids these days will grow up without prejudice against mixed-race families.

@4 Unless they are part of one. People I know whose parents are of different races have run into all sorts of bigotry from adults. People not accepting that they are parent and child, people assuming that a parent is a nanny. Lots of being told that your family doesn't make sense or isn't a normal family. But, hopefully, as time progresses those assumptions will die out, and then kids will not be getting as much bigotry from older generations. It's certainly a good sign that the kids growing up now will be less likely to do that to the children of the future.

@7 I did agree with what she said about bullies being stinky & mean and no one wanting to talk to them.

@1 It no longer matters what color you are...as long as the corporate state can commodotize you in some fashion.

Got that, Rick Frothy?

First Malala, then these kids. Yep, the evidence is piling up. This generation is the best one in a long time (if not of all time).

I'm looking forward to seeing what they bring to this world.

Please wait...
