Biracial-ity

While a lot of fatherless kids can guess their racial makeup,

not so with everyone.

This adds to the perplexation that some fatherless kids feel.

This is one reason why connecting with the other side of the family can be helpful.

Even fully-fathered people can experience angst by being biracial.

Imagine going to a family reunion on one side of the family

and you are about the lightest-colored person there,

and the next weekend, going to a family picnic on the other side of the family.

and you are about the darkest-colored person there.

This has to create a sense of ungroundedness.

I don't have a solution for this, I just acknowledge it.
