My biracial daughter & my self doubt 😔

My daughter is 50% Vietnamese & White and 50% Black.

People are ignorant when they see her it’s “Aww, she’s so adorable! ...She’s dark.”

Which she is, I’m not denying that but damn! It usually doesn’t bother me but I think about it more now that she’s getting older.

I start to think and doubt myself as a mother. How am I going to do this? I don’t know what it’s like to be black in this world. Obviously her father can guide her to an extent but even he doesn’t know what it’s like to be a black WOMAN in this world. How am I supposed to guide her through hardships that she’ll go through in her life that I’ve never and will never have to go through. 😔 How am I going to make a woman out of her?

Idk, I’m just feeling sad for her because people already have the audacity to point out the color of her skin and she is a CHILD. It’s 2017 and it’d be nice to act like by the time she’s grown that racism will be gone but we know it won’t be.
