"Then why the rush?" he asked repeatedly. "Mark has had problems with citizenship before and has always taken care of them himself," Gail defended. "In fact, he made it very clear when we were discussing marriage that if I had any doubts about anything, I should not hesitate to cancel our plans." Her father proceeded to quote statistics showing that mixed couples had higher divorce rates than couples of the same race and gave examples of mixed couples he had counseled who were having marital difficulties. "Have you thought about the hardships your children could go through?" he asked. "Dad, are you a racist?" "No, of course not. But you have to be realistic." "Maybe our children will have some problems, but whose children don't?"
“那么干吗要这样着急?”他重复地问。 “马克是有公民身份方面的问题,但他总是在自己处理这些问题,”盖尔辩解道。“事实上,当我们在讨论结婚的时候,他清楚地表明了一点:如果我对任何事情有怀疑,我完全可以取消我们的计划。” 她父亲开始引用统计数据说明异族通婚的离婚率比同族结婚的要高,而且还列举了接受过他咨询的、在婚姻上有麻烦的异族通婚夫妇的例子。 他问道:“你考虑过你将来的孩子可能会遭受的苦难吗?” “爸爸,你是种族主义者吗?” “不,当然不是。但你必须得现实一点。” “也许我们的孩子会遇到一些问题。但谁的孩子不会呢?”
