There's a first step for everything. A lot of parents will b!tch and complain about it, but eventually they will come around. You just have to stand your ground. In the end, if your parents still don't approve or have come to tolerate him, and it comes down to a huge showdown, then it's going to be whether he's worth the family sacrifice or not... Good luck!

I totally agree.....

it took my parents awhile to accept me dating out of my race too...

My mom was more accepting then my father... after couple of years they finally realized I'm still their daugther... I'm not bringing home non-decent guys to meet them... now their concern for me is... find the right PERSON that loves you... and will meet you half way and accept your culture... and support you in anything that you both may do in life together...... Just make sure he's really worth it before you start bringing him around your family... so your parents can't back fire on you with the saying " Nay nay I told you so " ...it's pretty tough, but like xoniuqe  said... you just have to stand your own ground if they dont' approve.... good luck... its not easy

good luck.  i feel that if you're able to date someone out of your race, you are strong enough to share it w/ your parents despite the consequences.  if you are not strong enough, then you should've thought twice about it. 

p.s. i don't have that problem, my parent are open and willing to accept whomever i date.

Forgiving does not erase the bitter past. A healed memory is not a deleted memory. Instead, forgiving what we cannot forget creates a new way to remember. We change the memory of our past into a hope for our future. PS. I Love Revenge

tell them you are pregnant and the baby daddy is not Hmong!  Hopefully the shock will give the parents a heart attack where you don't  have to feel obligated to explain anything further.  Now if they survive the the shocker, anything else you tell them will be nothing more than a sigh of relief.  Parents nowadays are far more understanding than before...they only want the best for you and if it should happen that you got a black boyfriend, oh well, just don't come crying.

On a serous note: breakings the news to your parents should not be as hard as telling them you have a boyfriend.
