  • I will let them decide for their self , making their own mind up to what they want to do
  • i would hope my children did not need encouragement,and would do as thier heart dictates and not bother about race or creed.
  • I would encourage my nephews and neices to date decent nice people . Race is not an issue. All my family would do the same. If they are happy there is not a problem
  • I will let me kids follow love instead of instruction.
  • i wouldn't they can make their own choice on who they want to date
  • Encourage, no. Discourage, also no. What place does "colour" or "race" or any of that other rubbish have in the affairs of the heart? Each must find its own completion.
  • I will encourage them to date whomever they feel the Lord has picked for them.
  • I will make no suggestions either way. That is their prerogative. I will beat the tar out of the boyfriend if they treat Chloe badly, regardless of color or religion.
  • I will encourage my children to date good Christians with character. I don't care what color they are.
  • No I will leave them alone to find their own partner who suits them, whatever race/religion he or she may be.
  • Would you encourage your kids to love a British Shorthair cat more than a Egyptian Mau? You get the idea.
  • I suppose if you've done your duty as a parent they would not need the extra encouragement. I feel like I will encourage my children to explore relationships (off all types) with all different types of people. I will not, however, encourage my children to preference one over the other; I will just want them to know that I support their relationship decisions.
  • the honest answer is no but it is unavoidable
  • I will encourage them to date anyone they want that treats them well. My future children will have a hard time dating within their race anyway, since I am be 5 different ones and I'm sure their father will be something different too.
  • I would not encourage my children to make any decision, judgment, etc about any person based upon race - and that includes the decision to date him/her. Race/ethnicity is unimportant, it is the person's character that matters.
  • I'll encourage my children to date whoever they like (well, as long as good character/no crime/that type of stuff)- no matter of what race that person may be.
  • i will and do encourage my girls to date someone that treats them appropriately-regardless of their color. they have been raised not to see the color of a persons skin, but the kind of person they are. idiots come in all colors. i would never encourage them to date, or not date, any person-except for a good one.....
  • I do not have children but if I had them, I would encourage them to date someone they loved. I would not care about race or gender. Of course, I am old fashioned so I would expect them, if they were underage and female, to bring prospectives home to daddy to ask me my permission to date my daughter. Well, actually, I would want them to do that after teenage years but that is not how things work. I know I know, that is not how America works. I was raised by an Old World father (Romanian Rromani).
  • with some families it would open up the gene pool
  • I will encourage them to date good people. Color and all that don't matter-I just don't want my kids with *ssholes!
  • I would encourage my children (had I any) to disbelieve the scientific fallacy that is race, and to stay away from yuppies.
  • My children have the right to follow their hearts! I have the obligation to respect their rights and know that they are mature enough to make their own decisions. Besides, there is but 1 race, the human race.
  • I would only encourage good morals, whatever happens happens.
  • of course not. nor outside their religion or their nationality or outside their social status. marriage is WORK, baby, why make it even harder by entering a union with built in obstacles to overcome? they will have enough to overcome when they are the same race, religion, nationality and social status.
  • I will not encourage NOR discourage them to date outside their race. I will encourage them to date the right person REGARDLESS of that person's race. We live in a new world now. It 'aint about race, it's about Character.
  • It would be unwise to do so. No one should date someone just for the sake of demonstrating that they're not afraid to date _______________. . Discouraging children from dating outside their race is also a mistake as they might do it just to prove something. . Best is to not say anything at all and let kids date whomever they wish to date, of whatever color or creed.
  • More of a: Find someone who will love you and respect you regardless of their skin color.
