[QUOTE="branbran, post: 84472, member: 3762"] I'm also in favor of letting her play. I think it is super important to have interests in something positive, what could be better than sports. Yes it's football but it could be drugs!! So I say let her play. We all know how hard it is to get our kids into something constructive. As for the AA situation, my daughter is also bi-racial so I can so relate to your concerns. We live in a very diverse city now, however when my daughter comes home from her Residential Treatment Center (RTC) (in August 08) we are moving to Florida, a nice quiet town. It is prodominately white as well, so that does concern me. I feel as if I have to get her out of here as she was seeking friendships in all the wrong places, very sad. She cannot maintain relationships with her peers, so she ended up walking the streets until she found someplace she was accepted, always the seedy parts of town with drug dealers and gang members. So I'm almost in the same boat, I don't know if moving to Florida is the right thing to do, however I know staying here will only cause her to regress into he old habits. Maybe you should just leave things as they are now, you did say she has lots of friends, and cross the other bridge when you get to it. Good luck. Wishing you the best. [img]:smile:[/img] [/QUOTE]
