This is America, baw. Interracial relationships will draw some negative attention anywhere, especially in the south. It has nothing to do with Catholics, Baptists, urban areas, rural areas or anything.
Yeah, what are we a melting pot?

The racists have really come out of the woodworks for this thread. Zatetic is over there on the Poliboard calling Jews the spawn of Satan. While zatetic doesn’t want Ted2010 breeding due to the fact he’s an extreme racist, I’d like to implore him and others that think like him to do the same.

Dont worry about the parenys, they will come around or they wont.
Background, my brother married a black woman and had 2 kids. Brother and wife both died so we now have the kids. There are no problems in our family with the race issue, but both kids have struggled with it. So
... if yall love each other float your boat. But think long and hard about kids. If you want kids, try to live somewhere where they can be accepted.

OP you’ve received a lot of good advice here and I don’t think it’s too much to ask to post a picture of that behind of hers in return.
It has been great advice. I am thankful. And I see what you did there.
Also, I called my folks after I got off work today. Ill update after I eat. And collect my thoughts.

Tell us how you really feel.

Well, you were right on one thing.
After work I called my dad first. I told him about her; similar to what I said in the original post. It turns out that my youngest brother had actually shown him some pictures and posts on my social media about her. Said he has known for a few months now. Said he didn't say anything because he did not feel like it was his place.
He told me it's not something he could do or agree with but he basically said it's my life my choices. Said he just doesn't understand why I'm doing it.
We talked a little bit about her. He asked questions about her like education, what she does for a living, her family and background, etc. I answered those questions and he said well "she sounds like a good person; y'all just make sure you treat each other well."
He told me he is open to meeting her, going to give her a fair chance like he would anybody else, not going to hold anything against her. He asked if my kids met her. I said yes and they like her and she is good to them. He liked hearing that.
He seemed a little aggravated that I didn't tell him beforehand and that he found out from my brother showing him pictures and stuff. Said he doesn't understand why I felt the need to hide that from him. That kind of made me feel like an arse. Overall he was a lot cooler with it than I thought he'd be. Very pleasant surprise.
After talking to him I felt a lot better and then I called my mom to talk to her. Didn't quite go so well like it did with my Dad. We talked a little bit and I steered the conversation to my SO & the issue. I told her everything I told my dad and like I said in the original post. She didn't say anything. There was just silence on the phone for what seemed like forever. Finally she said "you can't be doing this." She said "you know how I feel about it." "I can't accept it.I'll never accept it it's just not right and I can't believe you're doing this to our family."
That's kind of the reaction I had been expecting from her. We talked for a while longer. I told her how good my SO is to my kids, that she treats me good and makes me happy and I make her happy and all of that. I was trying to warm her up to the idea but it didn't seem to work. We finally ended the conversation with her saying she has to spend a long time thinking about this and she don't think she can get over it or accept it. That's kind of the reaction unfortunately I had been expected.
Hopefully she will come to grips with it really soon. Because I would very much like to take my SO and my kids too my mom's house to meet my mom and my family over there for Thanksgiving. But right now I don't know if that is a good idea. Hopefully the situation will change and we can do that.

That's not nice.

It went how you expected. Just remember bro, it’s you and her against anyone or anything outside of your relationship. Stay cool. You got this.

Well now you accept your mom's position or you don't. And your lady has to do the same.
You are putting yourself in a position where you will have to pick one or the other

Damn, that’s rough. I’d be hard pressed to keep my cool if my mom told me something like that.

If you aren't joking and you really love her and you both can put up with each other you need to latch on to her.
