When mixed-race couples disagree about racial identity in parenting

My partner and I are both mixed race but from different backgrounds and we're struggling with how to raise our kids around racial identity when we don't even agree on what our own identities mean or how much it should matter in daily decisions.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are discovering that shared experience of being mixed race doesn't automatically create shared understanding of how to navigate racial identity as a family.
