I am also a white lady, with a very clearly mixed ethnicity adult daughter who lives in Georgia. I am worried for her, for a variety of reasons. She’s a woman; she’s got a mouth on her; she’s gorgeous; she lives in a red state; Trump’s cabinet is shaping up to be more racist than his campaign. It’s a scary time.

until you actually have a child, which is like your heart being outside you, and that heart happens to be in a brown body

And seriously. It isn’t like I married my darling husband to get liberal points. He is a great guy who makes me laugh and he likes cranky gingers so we fell in love and got married. That is what is supposed to happen and race had nothing to do with it.

A little less snark on Kristen Davis, please. She is not saying that this is first time she was aware of white privilege, but just that these past few weeks are the first time that she openly feared for her child.

Don’t you think being a constant cynic like this might be counterproductive? Snarking on every kristin davis is like crying wolf, and there’s plenty of real wolves out there. Maybe her methods are a little clunky but the left doesn’t need to eat itself, especially not now.

So... cool. White women worried about their brown babies are assholes. Got it.

Yeah I feel like we have an unfairly high level of what is acceptable here. I can’t figure out what she did wrong, caring more because it’s your child is human nature.

It is needlessly harsh. There are lot of white parents who have children who are POC as a result of interracial relationships or adoption. And it makes sense that those parents are concerned for their child’s safety.

No, it is not warranted. Frankly, it’s a lot better than some of the borderline cringey stuff white celebrities say about their children who are not white.

I love how proud the dog is of Luna. This belongs to me and I get credit for her cuteness.

Davis is expressing a legitimate fear for her daughter and the realization about how privilege Davis has been and is. She is her right that her daughter does not experience that same privilege. It would be great if a lot of other white parents realized that about their own nonwhite children. Some do and some don’t.

Right? I’m curious as to what she should be doing here. Opted out of adopting a child if the child was black? Because...uh...holy shit. Not be afraid for her and realize that her white privilege doesn’t extend to her? Not try to remind her that she is beautiful and powerful in her own skin, despite living in a white…

This is a terribly written dirtbag. First of all, why the snark for Kristin Davis? Are you serious right now? This is a mother genuinely and articulately concerned for her black daughter. And secondly, the Kardashians were set to go to that dinner before Kanye was committed. In fact, Kim was in midair when she…

Agree. Wow, is it not ok for her to adopt and worry about her child and encourage her? Snark where snark is due, please.

Geez, this sneering at poor Charlotte there really doesn’t seem warranted. She’s a mom. She’s scared for her kid. She has good reason to be scared for her kid. Are we supposed to be laughing at her? This isn’t funny.

If the tone you were going for in the Kristin Davis section was total asshole, you really nailed it.

I like what Kristin had to say. It’s all exactly right. Take note other interracial adopters. Best of luck to her and her baby girl.

Is this level of vitriol towards Sex and the City chick really warranted? I dunno, I just heard a mom talking about her kid...

Waiting for someone to explain the snark re: Kristin Davis.

Holy crap, I think that’s the first time I’ve seen Chrissy’s baby. She looks like a perfect photoshop mashup of her parents!
