You didn't mention if someone has accused you of this or not. You may be reading into too much of what people think and they may really like you. My best friend is Chinese and married my husband's Caucasian friend and they have been happily married for 19 years and have one daughter who is our Goddaughter.
There was a myth (still can exist to this day) that Asian women (especially Japanese women) use to walk 10 paces behind their husbands (a custom.) It's just plain ignorance because modern times have actually Westernized Asian cities and their people. Chinese women were always hard workers, but during the Vietnam War there were some women that had to prostitute themselves to stay alive or help support families and this also happened in the Korean War. Unfortunately, there are still some men that will go to some Asian countries to meet women and are under the illusion that she will wait on him hand and foot and not nag at him and give him anything he wants. Of course anyone with a brain would know this simply isn't true. Anyone that even puts you down you tell your husband and if he's a man he'll set the record straight with the person who has been saying these things about you. You DON'T have to prove anything! You know who YOU are and you don't need to make excuses for yourself.
Is it possible you have a chip on your shoulder and feel other people aren't nice to you or thinking these things about you? Most people usually don't. I live in British Columbia Canada and my husband have many races of friends and think nothing of it, so I don't see why you should be having a problem.
Why do some people think that if a Caucasian man marries an Asian woman it is because she is a cheap girl and don't consider that she is a hard working woman?because you can easily go to any 3rd world Asian country and many times the girl is poor and only dreams of a rich western man to take her back to their country and then she can send money back to her family (5 dollars will be alot of help). also you can find that the women do seek money, and its true for all woman if you think about it; i concider any woman cheap if she marries for money. i see alot of dirty woman who marry just for riches. but you don't notice them cause they don't stand out like the colour difference of white and yellow.
i also see many beautiful couples of white and Asian, and she doesnt look cheap at all. (quite alot, more than cheap looking ones) its common simply because its very easy to go to Vietnam for example and pick one up. lots of men choose so. also its not hard to pick up a prositute there and ask her to marry you.
also it can also be thought this way, because of the confusion and missconception of said prostitution. if you go to these countries and see a man walking with a prozzie, common place, and you wouldn't notice the same of a yellow and yellow (harder to notice) but attitudes and said common genuialisations could have developed because of the attitudes and negative opinions of the locals seeing many foreignors with their local prostitutes. also white people have a reputation with the locals, as with all cuture clashes.
if its disturbing you i would go to think harder and notice all the cheap white with white or cheap black with black and you might eventualy realise that its common with all races, its just the racial culture clash that makes it personal and/or an issue
How much does a baby cost from birth to one year without breastfeeding?
It all depends on which brands of products you choose to use. If you go with the national name brands, it's going to cost a whole lot more than if you went with your store brands. I don't know what exact prices of diapers, etc are anymore, but if you can get to a Walmart, their brand, Parent's Choice is an excellent option, especially when it comes to their infant formula. If you're concerned about nutritional content, don't be. ALL infant formula manufacturers are strictly regulated by the FDA to create their infant formulas nutritionally equal. So whether you pay $30 per can or $12 per can, you're paying for essentially the same thing, with a different label.
Formula alone will be over $3,000.00 (bottles & nipples - extra) - diapers & wipes $5,000.00 - blankets, sleepers & clothing depends on how much you have to buy and how much is gifted / hand-me-downs, on average babies grow through 6 sizes - newborn to 18 months in the first year - you have toys, books, car seats, bounce chairs, high chair, strollers, diaper bag, crib - last but not least you have doctor appointments (plus hospital fees from the birth) and day care expenses. The littlest member of the family can easily run $20,000 to $25,000. in the first year alone.

Is pet urine unhealthy for a baby?
Yes, and it is unhealthy for everyone within the home. Pet urine causes odors when it dries and leaves bacteria contaminated salt deposits in the carpet. If it is a cat, what you are smelling is the ammonia created by the cat urine. Ammonia in high concentrations is not good for you or your newborn baby. All-in-all any kind of pet urine creates an unhealthy home environment.

What are some ways to relieve gas for a baby?
Pump the legs, like it's riding a bicycle, burp it really well after it eats, warm baths. Or try Ovol, works great! Way better then gripe water.
If you are nursing, cut back on your dairy intake as well as dark leafy green veggies and any other gas-producing foods. It's hard but it helps a lot! The baby gas drops such as Mylicon work wonders as well.

Would shaken Baby syndrome be a reason why a babies head is so big?
No in the first place a baby's head is disproportionately large if looked at by adult standards. shaking a baby may cause brain damage however it wont make a baby's head bigger then it is supposed to be. There are conditions where baby's and children have much bigger heads then normal but these have nothing to do with shaken baby syndrome.

How do you secure loose teeth?
Sometimes, if we are just talking about one tooth, bone grafting with either real bone taken from another edentulous area in the mouth can be used, or synthetic bone (we used something called PerioGraph years ago) mixed with normal Saline can be tried, but you should never neglect your gums so badly that they get loose in the first place.
Loose teeth are due to bone loss, which is caused by smoking, or poor nutrition, or both.
Getting regular prophys (cleanings) by a hygienist is the best way to prevent tooth loss. Tartar builds up.................gums get inflamed and irritated (gingivitis) then the bone starts receeding, and then pockets in the gum form. (the gums should be tight against the tooth, no pockets). Food keeps catching in the pockets, and eats thru the enamel, or dentin if the gum has receeded a lot. I can't imagine anyone letting their mouth go this far.
Bone keeps deteriorating and then the teeth get loose.............not good. Get regular cleaninings. IT IS THE CHEAPEST THING YOU CAN DO TO INSURE YOU KEEP YOUR TEETH!!!!!
And eat well, limit cokes and FOR GODS SAKES, STOP SMOKING!!!! NICOTINE ROBS YOUR BODY OF ALL VITAMIN C, WHICH IS A WONDERFUL SUPPLEMENT FOR YOUR GUMS.
DON'T SMOKE. IT IS BAD FOR EVERY CELL IN YOUR BODY!!!
See discussion are for more detail- senior dental consultant told me it is possible to get gum to re-adhere to teeth as this is often the reason for looseness. I have now experienced this for myself. If the looseness is severe it may not be possible.
