My kids were also adopted and are part Asian. No one ever says anything to me. I don't know if it's because I'm a little Asian looking myself or because our kids look like each other or if I give off a vibe

Very rarely my blond blue eyed husband will get a comment about how his wife must be Asian. We live in an area where part Asian kids aren't uncommon so that may be why too.

I don't think it has affected my kids much (they are half white and half Korean) so far but oddly enough, it has affected me. Mind you, the only accent I have is an Okie accent but I get asked all the time by strangers or people I just met if my husband is in the military. To which I reply with a thick Korean accent "yes, I marry him because he give me Hershey bah and Lebi jean".
