Is it ever okay to hurt someone? NO. Same thing. They’re wrong and should be smacked. No offense. Sometimes older people….need to be….smacked.

I don’t see why parents wouldn’t want to see their child happy. That girl makes him happy and treats him well I don’t see why her race is such a big issue . This is why some people shouldn’t have kids… Screw mommy and daddy…..

Stick with your brother. Unlike your parents, you have an open mind a kind heart and actually genuinely care about your brother’s happiness. It’s a shame your parents can’t be more like you.

wow, that’s just awful. your brother should marry whomever he wishes, regardless of race. stick to your guns, but still be respectful, because they are your parents and one bad thing doesn’t make a bad person. I would sit down and talk with them (with your brother) and find the root of the problem. your brother should tell your parents that he still loves them, and he would love for them to take part of his special day, but if they can’t love and respect his future wife, then he doesn’t want them there.

good luck

Nope, it’s never okay. They have let you and your brother down severely by this unfounded, disgusting behaviour. I’m sorry you’ve had to go through this. As hard as it may be, your best bet is for you and your brother to stick to your guns, tell your parents you’re disowning *them* until they apologise to all parties concerned and learn to love and support you both the way a parent should.

Familial love should be unconditional. They’re putting their prejudices before their children, which is an atrocious way to behave. Do not give in to them. Tell them in no uncertain terms that you love them but their behaviour is unacceptable and that they won’t be involved in the lives of any of their children or grandchildren until they can reign in their wilful ignorance and be supportive of you, your brother, and his fiance.

Go up to your parents and tell them they are total shit bags. Tell them that they deserve to burn in hell for being so childish as to not support an interracial relationship.

The parents do have the right to associate with whomever they please. If you disagree with them, hit the road and take care of yourself.

Let them disown you; this kind of bad influence from your parents is never good.

Never. But just ignore them, they’re ignorant. They can’t stop you from doing what you want, or your brother.
