Struggles with living in a world that doesn’t always accept mixed race children

Hey mommas,
I’m currently a single first time mom to a 6 month old little boy. I’m white and his dad is Mexican. I know it takes up to or sometimes even over a whole year for melanin to fully develop, but my son is currently very pale and has been since he was born. I love him regardless but I get snide or rude comments often that people are surprised he isn’t darker or that he’s mixed. To some he’s not white enough cause he’s half Mexican and to others he isn’t Mexican enough cause he’s so white. How do yall navigate in a world like this where our babies aren’t just seen for what they are? Blessings. Like as a white woman I will never claim to know the struggles he will go through but I wanna do what I can to support him and myself through this journey. I mean he’ll even his dad makes comments about how he’s so white and are we sure he’s his. Mind you paternity has been confirmed and his dad chooses to not be in his life so.
