Have any of you..parents of bi-raicial children, been out somewhere and gotten weird looks, not to mention people not believing your child is yours, because he/she looks nothing like you??

My son is quite pale compared to me. Nothing about him at this points resembles me in the least.

Yes, indeed it happens. LOL I get looks from all walks of life. I am getting used to it, I must admit. Eventually, he has to look something like me, I hope! LOL

I must say, that is the absolutely ONE thing I love about "mixed kids," you just absolutely NEVER EVER know what you are going to get!!! The end result though, is always BEAUTIFUL!!!

My children's father was protugese, although they all look alike, only my middle son has the olive skin tone, the other two take after me (pale). Most people don't notice too much at first, but when they really look you can see the question on their face, once they hear the kids last name they understand (big portugese community in our city).
All children are beautiful, no matter who they look like; after all, we are all basically the same.

My son has an African father. I am European (blond, blue-eyed).

Once - I don't know how people have the cheek to ask this of complete strangers - someone asked me "Is he adopted?".

After the shock of mouth dropping open, I soon recovered my composure and breezily said:
"No, I made him myself"............

I can say I don't know how you feel since my kids look like me but my ex wife had that problem and I know it hurt her. She several times ran into people who thought she was a nanny of some type. one thought she was kidnapping them. She is mexican and my kids look more white. people do have attitudes about it.

Someone asked me the same thing, if my daughter was adopted. I told the guy, (who was complimenting on how beautiful she is) that I grew her myself. ha ha
