For Children of Interracial Couples
The Identity Your Parents Couldn't Model
Your parents couldn't model the identity you needed to build. This is where you build it yourself.
For the adult child of an interracial or intercultural couple who is working through the identity questions that come from having parents whose racial or cultural backgrounds are different from each other
The Name It First Experience
Your parents love you. They also grew up differently from each other, which means the identity you needed to build — the one that integrates both of what they brought — is one they couldn't model. You watched them navigate their difference. You inherited both sides without a map for how to carry them together. This workbook is about drawing that map. Who you are, what you take from each side, and the identity that belongs to you and no one else. You leave with The Children of Interracial Couples Identity Charter — a named document of who you are.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- Name what each of your parents brought to your identity — and describe how you learned to carry both without a model for how to do it.
- What did it look like to grow up in a household where your parents' racial or cultural backgrounds were different — what did you absorb, and what did you have to figure out yourself?
- What does your identity feel like when it is fully yours — not navigating what each parent's side expects, but just who you are?
Research basis
Grounded in Root's multiracial identity development research, Poston's biracial identity development model, and Renn's ecological model of multiracial identity.
