I havent had to go through that yet. My daughter is also biracial but she is only 4 and 1/2 and so far she hasnt experienced any racial slurs or anything. I hope she never does but I know the reality of it is she probably will. Some people are so ignorant and rude. I understand about what your husband said though. If she does ignore them it will make her stronger in the long run. I know being a teenager is hard when there are no obstacles in the way add being different and things are ten times harder. She shouldn't quit doing anything that she loves becuase if she does then she is letting those bullies win. She will be even more miserable if she did quit her activties becuase she will have given up on her dreams for a bunch of ignorant people who are not worth her time. Explain to her that if she does she will give those bullies exactly what they want and the torture will not end there. They may keep it up making her even more miserable in the long run. If she ignores them and doesnt give them the time of day they will not have an audience and will get bored with it. 9 times out of 10.
