According to the textbook, what is the relationship between societal attitudes about interracial marriage and the frequently-asked question “I’m all for interracial marriage, but what about the children?”
Group of answer choices

The question is important because there seems to be a great deal of evidence that biracial children have a harder time figuring out their racial identity than other people of color whose parents identify as the same race.

The question is often positioned as a rationalization for being opposed to interracial marriages and comes frequently as a way to package that disapproval without being forthright.

The question is important because people raise it frequently as a way to argue that the cultural acceptance of interracial relationships should be congruent with society’s integration of multiracial individuals.

The question downplays the significance of interracial relationships that produce children, but that do not result in marriages.
