To the OP. I have a child with bone straight hair..I have a child with curly(when short) or wavy hair hair.

The wavy hair is harder to manage. I am sorry that you feel that the nurses comments were do to your child being bi-racial instead of just the particular texture of her hair....which can happen in any race.

I have a friend who has a bi racial child (she is white, and the father of her daughter is black). Her daughter's hair texture is more constant with someone who is bi-racial or black. My friend had to learn over time how to style and groom that type of hair because it was something she just wasn't use to before hand. Just because something is 'racial' doesn't necessary make it racist.

Maybe you're right, but it's just the situation as a whole and some other indicators that made me think of that explanation ( ex: the sudden change of attitude).

To the person that suggested that maybe her attitude came from her sensing some negativity in me: I don't think she saw me as unapproachable, I'm a very outgoing person who enjoys social interactions, I always make it a point to be polite and make conversation. In a matter of fact, that's one of the reasons why I enjoy living here; the hospitality and friendliness of even perfect strangers.

I'm not sure that is any better than racism. The man is earning a living and you think you are better than him because you *think* you are smarter and have a better education? How is that any differ

Welcome to America, your story is consistent with what happens daily to non-white families. You get the same ignorant comments on VJ, it does not change ever.
