abercrombiee_x3 answered Saturday October 7 2006, 10:44 am: Okay you REALLY need to talk to your dad. I would probably write a note its a lot easier. But dads are ALWAYS going to be protective ... so he's gonna just find one thing not to approve of them && in your case its race. But just tell him how you feel and you feel as though you really like him. Tell him to imagine him in your shoes. And ask him what would he do if his mother was raciest and he was dating a african american girl.
XkittyOkatX answered Saturday October 7 2006, 10:40 am: I think you should talk to your dad privatly, or even write a note for him to read so he'll have no choice but to listen to what you're saying. Explain to him that the world has changed, and the person you're dating is actually a good person, cause obviously you really like him. Explain to your dad that your beliefs are different and that you really like him, and for your dad to at least give him a try. Then maybe get your mom to talk to your dad, too.
