When my toddler and I have been out in public together, I have had comments now from two strangers about how she looks nothing like me and that she must look like her Dad. My daughter is bi-racial, and if people saw the three of us together, I think they would realize that she does actually look like a mixture of both of us. I don't know how to respond when someone says this, or really why they are saying it at all.

Dear Sharon:
Honestly, if I were you, the next time someone says that I'd reply with "Wow, that's a pretty bold statement to make". Right away they will regret saying what they did. Then finish it off by saying "She's actually bi-racial and I think she looks like a perfect mix of the two of us." You are reassuring yourself with this comment and asserting them!! Some people are just rude and have no social skills!!
Good luck!
