First, congratulations if you are just married to an Asian wife. The international marriage can be very rewarding, but gradually, you will be asked by one common question: when are you going to have a baby?
For example, if your wife is from China, then each big festival like Spring Festival and Mid-autumn day, your parents in law will be most likely bring up the questions about having a baby. I understand it's not common at all in the West, but trust me; it's very common in the east. Then when you go home and you want to ask your wife opinions about it. But in my opinion, your wife will simply just agree with her mom's idea.
Always hold your peace. This is always very important. I understand you know a lot while you are dating your Asian girlfriend. But when you are married to her, then you are actually entering her family. So no need to be panic or angry, always hold your peace.
In most Asian countries, they will think the children of mixed western and Asian heritage are usually great looking. It includes great skin tones, wider eyes, and beautiful hair. In fact, many models in Asia today are coming from those mixed families. They are getting very high salary.
Do you know why Asian people think in this way? Actually, more and more Asian stars today are coming from an international family. That is the reason why people think mixed kids are generally handsome and beautiful in Asia.
Remember you and your Asian wife are from different culture background. Besides you and your Asian bride speak different language, you need to know at the beginning you and your wife are born and raised in the totally different cultural environment. Since your child was born, it becomes harder to manage the relationship. Let me tell you why, you will experience lots of questions like education (should your children go to international school or local school? Or should your children follow the mother's or yours?)
Make sure you and your wife on the same page for discipline In my opinion, most women in Asia do not seem to fit to discipline children. They will simply allow them to do anything and buy everything the children want.
You don't want to show lots of disagreement in front of your kids. So make sure you are on the same page in advance for some issues.
