Do I have the right to be mad!

I came from a very light skinned family but I’m not ,, I have olive skin.

And some family members used to call me blacky when I was young and at that age I used to feel really insecure that I’m darker than my family and really I used to be sad!

But when I got older I started stopping anyone from commenting harsh comments and actually love my skin color and I even want to be darker so I started tanning

Now my son is 6 months old and since the first day of his life I’ve heard comments from both families, mine and my husband’s and btw in his family they don’t even have an olive color they are all white

And I stopped them because I don’t want them to get used to this attitude and affect my son as I was affected

There’s no shame in any skin color ,, they are all beautiful but I don’t want my son to feel like an outsider and when ppl comment a lot about something! You will start noticing it thing a lot and might affect you

Today my father he is an old guy and sick and commented about my son color and said he is black I immediately stopped him and he got mad at me but honestly I don’t care these kind of comments has to be stopped
