Yardies at Home and a Farrin (part 19)

[sus 70]

Oh that is terrible! Why not just put the dogs in a kennel and tell him where to pick them up?

Is she feeling that burned? Did he do something awful to her??? WOW

He did NOTHING - worked his butt off, she was a society chick, played tennis, got her nails done, went for massages - he paid for a housekeeper, etc... he is one of the true good men who gave his ALL -

Mrs P. - you make some very valid points. i agree that it is a true shame that anyone would not love themselves for who they are and what they look like. all children are beautiful and special....i agree with you 100%

however, interracial children do come with their own set of challenges.....they question their own identity. who am i? am i white? am i black? i don't look like either one....where do i fit in? It is up to us as parents to make our children feel special and important no matter what their makeup is...

i don't believe that interracial children are 'better' or 'more beautiful' than those of their one race counterparts (that would go for someone who is all black or all white or all whatever) but I do think that interracial children are more interesting and unique..

what i find interesting is that for centuries and centuries breeding outside of one's race has been so taboo and so wrong and so looked down upon and to some people downright disgusting(in societys eyes) and when people finally started to do it, the result has been some extremely stunning and talented human beings...

Finesse, I agree that we of mixed race do have our own set of challenges. Although I never had the identity issues, I did and still do have the dreaded battle of what to do with my hair... Although the hair industry is much better than when I was growing up I went through many a bad hair day, week, month.... because white beauticians didn't know how to do my hair and neither did black beauticians.

I disagree with the statement that interracial children are MORE interesting and unique. I have seen mixes that I don't feel are cute and actually a bit odd...just as I have seen back or white children that just weren't cute. I know that is an opinion but I hate the blanket statement that one is MORE than the other...

everyone is entitled to their opinion......and i respect yours

i agree with u that i have seen many interracial kids..look one hot mess..no kinda cute not even a ounce...that has nothing to do with the mix when they are cute or not...mi no care wah yuh mix wid..yuh pickney no cute like fi mi dem

How about this for messed up relationship story? One of my friends called me last night for advice - He left on a business trip - came home to find the house cleared out, his wife gave away his dogs (pure bred Rottis, from Germany, mega $), and filed for divorce - He loves those dogs - bad enough to leave him and do all that - You had to give away his dogs?

thats some COLD stuff!

CONGRATS MS. TEE !! SO HAPPY FOR YOU !!

Hey Yardies !! just passing thru ..i've been studying hard for school and trying to get things together for our interview ..but a quick UPDATE ..my honey had his medical today at Andrews Hospital in KNG..he got there around 830 he said alot of people were their already but he got called up around 10 and he was out at 2...he said everything went well !! So i'm happy about that..now we just have to get thru the big day ..

Hey HeavenSent yeah there is a long wait at St Andrews I hope he had a snack Glad to hear everything went well. Girl keep up the good work in school keep hitting those books you are doing your thing!

i see them pregnant bellys and im like MAN.. dem mussi use lots of cocoa butter..

mi nuh tink mine wa dat prettyful.. my second baby had me thinking i was gonna scratch her out of mi belly.. the stretching had me itching like a manic.. it was HORRIBLE..

didn't happen at all w/ my first go figure..

jamerican queen.. what a lovely pic!!

LOL Q @ scratch her out yuh belly

Yeah...but were the results of them being "stunning and talented" as you say due to people treating them differently--being encouraged more, being provided w/ more opportunities or acceptance based on appearance, etc

As the mother of a biracial child I realized this when my daughter was old enough to speak and began to say "I know" instead of a simple "thank you" when anyone told her she was pretty, beautiful, whatever, that I had to do something and immediately. She had heard it so often that she was taking it for granted and believing the hype. She also made fun of one of my foster kids and told her she had longer hair than her (one of my gorgeous foster daughters who happened to have a dark complexion). My answer to the latter was to chop off her hair (my mother never forgave me till this day) to show her that hair, features, etc. do not mean ANYTHING if you have no inward beauty to back it up. I have drilled into her that your looks will only get a door opened for you but after that you have to have something to show or prove or else you are SOL. I pray to my Good Lord that one day people will describe my daughter as a kind, smart, generous, considerate, thoughtful daughter, now those are words that will make me proud!

Shaunsgal thanks for sharing

U go Shaunsgal!!!! I love that you chopped off her hair that was a good example plus she was young enough for it to grow back which I'm sure it did so no harm done.

I remember all my friends told me I was doing irreparable harm to her by doing that, but I did not give a &$#@. I also remember taking her door off the jam about two years ago because she slammed her door. Now we have an agreement that when she starts paying rent in her own home she can slam the doors all day long....No one agreed with me on that either.

LOL you sound like me taking the door off the hinges Glad I am not the only one
