Growing up, biracial kids were treated as special. Sure they may've experienced some discrimination or prejudice (honestly who hasn't?). Everyone experiences some form of prejudice, discrimination, bigotry. But biracial kids also experienced a lot of special treatment as well.
They were generally seen as more attractive, and I know people hate the "e" word that I'm going to use, but yes they were seen as "exotic." Not just by people who fetishized them, but by everydaya/normal people as well. During student/teacher interviews, a lot of the parents talked about how beautiful the half asian/half white kids looked.
Even my Asian female friends were always bragging about their beautiful half-asian cousins, or even being jealous of them.
The point is, that society definitely gave them the "main character" treatment.
And that's what I want for my kids. It's one thing to tell your kids that they're special, but it's a whole different thing when society reinforces that belief by treating them better.
So yes, I absolutely want bi-racial kids. Better genes, better health, better treatment.
