I am a stay at home mother of 3 children. I have been married for 5 years. My friends and family like to come to me with advice cause I never judge anyone. I have an open mind about everything. I like helping people out when they need help. I was a writer for my high school newspaper. I am wanting to start a career in writing. I love my life. I hope that I can help you with your questions.

I understand where you are coming from. My husband is racist,I however, am not. Try talking to your mom. Maybe she had a bad experience with a different race which made her to come to feel the way she does. She might have been brought up to feel that way. It's hard when you are the one in the middle basically having to chose between your mom and your best friend. Try coming to a comprise with your mom. Ask to meet her and to see that isn't a bad person. If she did have a bad experience with a different race then maybe you can prove to her that not everyone is the same. I hope this helps. I wish you the best of luck with your mom and your best friend.
