Raising a child poses challenges on its own, now imagine raising a child with someone from a completely different culture or a different race than yours. There tends to be a lot more explaining than you might have expected, you may need to paint the picture for your partner about why a certain perspective is important to you, or why you want to pass on cultural traditions down to your child. Join the three hosts, along with Special Guest, Rocio Garza, a proud Latina, and lifestyle content creator who married a “gringo,” as they discuss the joy and challenges of being in an intercultural marriage while raising children who also feel their “latinidad.”
