Amina , there is NOTHING like a somali wanna be .
I usually stay way from married women as far as addressing them by form of RESPECT , but you are 100% OURS {one of us }, I am proud of you .

There are a lot of HATERS among us , I might even be one , but don't let them waste your time insha Allah .

amina,

wanna be is a discriminatory word that is used to refer to a group that want to associate themselves with a group that they don't belong to. for example, Somalis boys who dress hip hop clothes and Somali girls who dress in blouses and jeans with their hair naked are like african americans are called wannabes. also small boys who want to associate themselves with gangs are called gang wanna bes. they are saying your son is not a somali. that is not true because you only need to have a clan which your children do as mareehan to belong to somali.

alsalam tammy, i would like to tell you ive printed one of your somali food receipe so my mother could make me to taste it.
i keep hearing aljeero around here and i dont even know how it test it.

secondly, as much i admire you for loving your husband`s nationality i still like one to keep and be who they`re and not act what they`re not. you`re a muslim and that should be good enough.
you do not need to try so hard to sound/look somali. that`s the reason other kids try to tease your kids.

i wish my mother would like somalis just like you do. it's hard when your mom tells you do not talk to somalis, do not be friendly with them because they're trouble makers or they dont respect people so they may do this or thaat!!! im tired of that too.

so middle ground is the best, respect who ever your husband's people but just be who you're.

somalis are only somalis to the eye of the stranger/foreigner (non-somalis), within somalis there is nothing called somali but multiple-tribal identites. somalis are still nomadic illiterate people who identify with their tribe rather than their nation.

That is the problem you face when you marry outside ur race...most mixed children have identity crisis.The biggest reason why pple should stick to their own.

So Amina just talk with ur son and rest of ur children about this issue and explain for them that they are not just somali but half canadian to.You cant just wipe out ur family dear.
