I think the mother of the bi-racial daughter is feeling that her daughter is ashamed to be black even though she says that she is proud of being both black and white but I think that the mother doesn't want to say that because it would be even more hurtful.  I am black and agree that she is "acting" more white than she is black, and if there wasn't a difference we wouldn't even have to have this show.  Let's not pretend that there isn't a difference between the way our cultures behave.  We behave much differently than our white counterparts and there is nothing wrong with that.  Why are we trying not to say that on this show.  The daughter "acts" more white than she does black and her mother notices it and so did I.  I can't understand why you, being the psycologist, didn't see and/or acknowledge that.  As you pointed out with that gentleman who went to George's house, we have very different ways of interacting and behaving and again I say there is nothing wrong with that, and Oh by the way, I LOVE YOU AND YOUR SHOW.  :-) 

  

I am furious at this man and his wife who keep talking about "their choice."  Did he forget that it was his "choice" to not wear a condom, which left him wide open to impregnate the woman, regardless whether or not she said she was on birth control.  I feel so sorry for those two children that do live with him.  It seems to me that if they are not "perfect" they will have hell to pay with their mom.  It is apparent that she doesn't know much about the real world which isn't perfect all of the time.  I think when that child grows up and, if given the chance, gets to know his dad he will be happy that he wasn't in his life.  He and his wife sound ridiculous saying that they made a choice to create this "perfect" life that has now been shattered, how about the childs life that has this man for a father.  How cruel and insensitive they both are.
