Related: My daughter's second grade teacher was Mrs. Emily Chewning, of Scottish extraction. She told me that when the first parent-teacher conferences happened, a number of parents were surprised at her appearance: kids always referred to her as "Miss Chew" and from the sound of the name, parents assumed she was Chinese.

Most of my family is Asian. It was self-evident to me for the last six or so years that he was Vietnamese :0
