Do you think that purity of the species is their sole intention? Or are they rightfully concerned about the deterioration of the species?

I would guess they would say purity is needed to prevent deterioration of the species. It is not an either or question. If a dog is a mixed mutt, it is regarded as less valuable than a pure breed. Lots of real life people who do not belong to a real life purity group believe this and can get violent when they see "mixing". In real life, if a group of any variety in a species is too pure, they become inbreed and are less healthy. A lot of dog breeds have hip, eye and other problems that mixed breeds do not have.

There are babies that were made in artificial insemination institutes and have turned out to be mentally retarded.
Groups like the "Wesenrein are everywhere.

So while Diana is a pure breed, Kelly is not. As he ages he could experience health problems.

Both are mixed. Diana is a mixed breed. Her father_Renard- is half royal/hex. Their mom is at least half hex, maybe half something else-father unknown. Kelly is a mixed breed. His father-Nick- may be half grimm , his father 's linage is unknown. Once again, mixed offspring tend to be healthier, with less generic problems. Isolated human groups tend to look more and more alike and have higher rates of shared generic defects. As we all get older we all get health problems, if you are related to everyone in the town or county, you will have a lot of the same problems as everyone you know and who would probably be your mate.

Diania is hardly a pure anything her father is a half Zauberbiest and half human just like Kellys father is a half human half Grimm.

Wow, purebred vs. half-breed, this thread has taken a severe shift in subject matter. Renard was introduced as half Zauberbiest / half human and Nick was introduced as half Grimm / half human, and neither was presented as being mentally or physically compromised by interspecies breeding.


RE: Why didn't Nick let Juliette go? - brandon - 02-04-2018

Nick did well to leave it Juliette, only if she asked him, he should.

Robyn, I couldn’t agree more this talk about them being affected because they are half something and half another is total nonsense and without merit . Both Kelly and Diania are half something and half another and they are perfectly healthy and don’t see a reason why they shouldn’t be.

Yes, but I was wondering why/when the original conversation veered in such a different direction. Nick probably didn’t let Juliette go because he’s like most of us - wanting to have his cake and eat it too.
