She’s upset her son ain’t with a white woman and therefore she won’t the pale eyed grandkids she wants from him. She ment exactly what she said. These people in these comments are slow af. If he ain’t trying to be understanding towards you about this then chances are he knows it’s wrong and doesn’t want to flat out say what he knows she ment by it so he’s playing dumb. My white mom was upset I liked white ppl cuz she wanted black grand babies. She said the same type of shit for years. Yall lying like a mf in these comments.
so you’re only talking to this man and she’s already bringing up grandkids? she sounds like she’d make a great mil

2 things to remember. If & when he ask you to marry him, You are marrying Him, not his momma.
And if he doesn’t care what his momma thinks, fine.
I know what you are going through!
My inlaws are Polish. They thought I was Trailer Trash. And we didn’t live in a trailer.
They said our marriage wouldn’t last. Well, let me tell you this, I proved those Pollocks WRONG! We will be married 44 years this June. I endured years of them talking about me in Polish ,in FRONT of ME! After all these years, I am her favorite daughter in law out of 4.
I am Hispanic married to a white guy lol. I can tell you it is A CRAP thing to say and I would be offended as well. I would however not give up on her or the guy over this. It’s prime opportunity to discuss and show her a culture she is unfamiliar with

Run far away before there is kids involved… I would be offended by that too whether she meant it to be mean or not. If he doesn’t care about your feelings because of something his mom said then who knows what else he will take her side over yours. Sorry I just have ptsd from dealing with my ex and his mom and all the issues she caused, and him always siding with her.

It depends how it was said and if any other comments continue… but it’s probably just an innocent thought not meant in any way. Presumably she had previously just imagined little minis of her son when thinking of grandkids. She’s adjusting her picture…
My Mom thought the same thing. But eventually she got them.

Both my parents have brown eyes and both my sister and I have blue eyes. I have blue eyes and my sons father has brown eyes yet our son has blue eyes. The blue eyes comes from my grandmother who was from Belgium. You not having blue eyes doesn’t mean your kids won’t. His mother is misinformed. It really boils down to insensitivity and a lack of knowledge on her part

I agree with him
BUT
she might be surprised - the laws of genetics have changed… she just MIGHT get some blue-eyed grandbabies 
I’d be more upset that the boyfriend didnt find anything wrong with his mother’s comments. Be wary. He may be the mommas boy that always takes her side and never backs you up

And you said you just started talking to him and she is bring up grandkids?!? That’s a lot of iffyness for the beginning of a relationship. I’m not saying ditch him, just keep your eyes open.
That was a lousy thing to say. Ask her just what she meant by it and why was it important for her to say such a thing? Confront her, she needs to be called out on that one!

My mum and brother have green eyes and my partners mum and dad have green eyes too so Duno how 2 of our kids ended up with blue eyes lol
My mom said the same thing. I’m married to a Hispanic. My response was nope, but you will love your grandchildren all the same.
It’s not her choice who her kids fall in love with. Or how her grandchildren coming out looking like. My sister also with a Hispanic have the most gorgeous tan skin and beautiful blue eyes. Don’t listen
It’s not about GENETICS!! Stop it already. This is obviously a micro aggression; this is racism. Ffs!!
You’re definitely NOT overthinking.

Well adopted children, browned husband. I’m the only one with blue eyes except for the dog
You don’t marry the eyes but the people
People are so dumb but im all about benefit of the doubt and sometimes people say things without realizing how they may come off. If you see a future with this dude than you should just be honest and direct about the subject. Better to know now than later.

You may or may not get the “blonde hair blue eye babies” I’m brown hair blue eyes partner is dark brown/black hazel eyes, yet we have 3children together 2 are red haired (comes from our parent’s genes) daughter has blue eyes red hair, son has hazel eyes red hair, then our youngest was dark hair born (now mousse brown/blonde) and blue eyes.

Oh honey I’m married to a Hispanic man and I can tell you that some parts of the family hated him and still hate him because of his skin color and his nationality he’s from Guatemala but that being said I have dark hair brown eyes my baby’s daddy’s which are different men both have dark hair one of them have brown eyes and one of them have blue eyes and both my daughters have dishwater blonde hair and blue eyes don’t judge him by his mother’s actions
It sounded almost racist to me.
That was ignorant because my mom is rican and dad is peruvian me and my siblings all came out w blue eyes so if she was implying spanish people can’t have blue eye babies then she’s def wrong
Men will never say anything bad about their mothers that’s just the way they are but I know where you’re coming from cuz I’ve been there
I’m disappointed I got blue eyes blonde/bald babys 
I always wanted a dark skin dark long hair bright green eyed baby:rofl:

Well she’s wrong there my husband and I have dark hair, he has brown eyes and I have green but our daughter is blonde haired and blue eyed just like his late father and aunt
Honestly, my first son’s dad is brown hair, brown eyed, and we have a blue eyed blonde. Dad is 5’9 I’m 5’10 Dad’s family is all really short, mine are tall…my kid 6’3 at 14yrs. I also have kids who are half Puerto Rican, their dad is darker with eyes so dark they almost look black and pitch black hair. (Naturally I’m blonde with blueish green eyes with some yellow (I have central heterochromia in both eyes) our boys have medium brown eyes dark/medium brown hair and one is a darker tan completion, where others are light light brown barely there til summer when they darken quickly
Blue and brown eyes are co-dominate so it’s still a possibility. I have one blue eyed kid and one brown eyed kid. My mom once made a comment that she always hoped none of us would have red hair bc my dad was born with red hair that turned black. For some reason that offended me as a child even though my hair was black 
I loved my dad and red hair. My kids father was born with blonde hair that turned brown and my son has pretty much had every color hair ever but it gets light and has a lot of red in it in the summer and tbh they both could have been born with hair as red as a clowns and my mom would have still been thrilled with them. Ppl get this idea of things in their heads but most times realize they were so wrong later on.

Yeah, you might be overthinking…but mostly you’re being thin-skinned. I’m pretty sure any of us would have been momentarily before we thought through her remark. Sometimes we say things that come to our mind, but it doesn’t mean that they’re important thoughts. First of all, she made your relationship serious, and second of all, she remarked about blonde/blue eyes. Both are a bit premature. I’d get to know her and realize that she would love to have some darker skinned grandbabies if you both loved each other.

I wouldn’t give it a second thought. My father had brown eyes and my mother blue. Even though brown is dominant, I am the only brown eyed child out if 4. My mom had the most beautiful blue eyes and I wished I had them but god decided to give me brown through genetic. You could also get brown eyes with two blue eyes parents thru your gene pool if both parents carry brown eyes Gene’s. She is just expressing she likes blue eyes and she would love her grandkids no matter what color their eyes are, even green.

Depends how she said it. My half Mexican son has reddish blonde hair and blue eyes.
I have a wonderful friend that is Puerto Rican and she married I believe a man with German ancestry… she herself would hope/joke that she was hoping for light hair and blue eyes…didn’t happen but her girls are gorgeous and loved!!!
It may have just been your dark eyes. I wouldn’t take it in a derogatory way. It isn’t like she said “I don’t want you seeing her.” It seems really innocent to me. She’s already got you having kids with him. I would not take it personally until you get to know everyone better. FYI, he may really be into you and told you about the comment to put feelers out or even find out what you think of having kids. No…I absolutely think you read to far into it.

Over thinking it. My Mom has blue eyes with dirty blonde hair and married my dad with black hair and brown eyes. Both my sister and I ended up with brown hair and eyes. My sister then had two brown eyed brown haired boys. So I then marry a guy with blue eyes. Once we found out I was pregnant she told my husband I may actually get my blue eyed grand baby. It only matters to her. 
It depends wjat kind of a person she is. She could have actually been disappointed about it or she could be an outgoing person who was saying it in a fun observant way. Don’t make a big deal out of it especially when you don’t know her.
May be that she recognized you as “the one”. If you’re wifey material she could be acknowledging it.
I don’t think she meant anything bad by it unless she continues to make comments along those lines
Watch her because she is comfortable making slick comments like that. She only said it because of your race. The ones who doesn’t see an issue with it is part of the PROBLEM. It’s no telling what she will say next. Correct the problem now

Idk I see it both ways… I mean I really wanted my daughter to have curly hair and it took 3 more babies to get one with curly hair. I also always wished my dads genes would pull through and give me a blue eyed baby but I sure don’t love any of my kids any less! I also really wanted my twins to be both boys but got one of each and I thanked God soooo many times for giving me my daughter (and my son of course). But that’s just me… some people are truly petty like a girl I know had triplets and COMPLETELY favors her blue eyed girl over her brown eyed boys!!! It’s sooo sad.

Depends on how she said it. Maybe she was joking? If you’re going to feel bothered by it then you need to have a conversation with her about it.
I’m looking through the comments and I see a lot of women who are Caucasian saying you’re overthinking it. These people aren’t you and you don’t need anyone validating your feelings on the subject. People will disagree or agree with you. I think if it bothers you, you should voice your discomfort.

My brothers blonde headed And blue eyed and his wife is Asian with dark hair and dark eyes and we always (them, me, her family etc) say that the baby will have more of the mother’s features and we can’t wait to see the beautiful baby they create.
My son was born with blue eyes and my brother said “Awh I’ll never have a little blue eyed mini me- our baby will definitely have her eyes” but just like acknowledging it not unsatisfied with the child he will have if that makes sense.
In my opinion she’s just acknowledging that your traits would be dominant which is correct.
Depends on her delivery though.

She clearly flunked 7th grade science. That’s where I learned that 2 brown eyed people could still have a blue eyed baby. Also, I have brown eyes and black hair and my son was a blue eyed blonde when he was born. His hair gradually changed to dark brown but still blue eyed. It’s all about recessive genes. The blue eyed gene is recessive in me from my dad and it came out in my son. Same with my brothers daughter. He has brown eyes and his daughter is blue eyed. Brown is generally dominant and blue recessive. My mom had brown eyes my dad had blue all three of their children are brown eyed and both of their grandchildren are blue eyed.

Who cares- my grandpa always said all he ever wanted was a brown eyed, brown hair grandchild. We are all pretty light completed and blue/green eyes. He loved us all and was just proud of his heritage. It was never an insult. We made a joke of it as we grew up and all told him we would marry a Puerto Rican or Mexican to make up for our parents lack of care for his input.
They don’t always have I’ll intentions. I had the best grandpa in the world and he never made us feel less.

It was wrong of her to say that… BUT everyone above is correct, that could be taken as a compliment. See she could have been ruder (althought that was already rude) it still shows she accepted you. Even if it wasnt in an appropriate context, it wasnt completely a diss… I could see how it would make you uncomfortable but she knows her son well enough to know he likes you enough and it may be a possability. Although… her grandbaby can still have blue eyes, or brown its 50/50. I have a mixed baby and i wished shed have my blue eyes so bad, she didnt she has tje most beautiful chocolate brown eyes ive ever sewn in my life! I feel horrible for ever wishing her eyes diffeent than they are now. I am sure she will think the same because she didnt say anything completly racial. Shes gonna love her grandbabys no matter what. I can tell that by her comment although not the smartest choice of words.
