I have a new friend at school that has this. He is the sweetest boy ever and I swear he acts no different than any other teenage boy on this earth [: But I'm always afraid to talk to him about this stuff like asking him questions I basically pretend like I don't notice that he's a black kid that's white. So this was helpful

No. You have a 1 in 4 chance, though, that you child will have Aa, in which they can pass it on to their children. Otherwise, they will be AA, where they have not albinism at all. I think I just commented on you before.

you can go to genetic counceling to see if your children have a chance of having albinism. its all in genetics.

Yeah, just see 2 comments up [pink_y]. Or, just read what I commented here:
Yeah, in Biology, I learned things such as Punnet Squares. If 2 capital A’s are in the genotype (AA), then they are not albino. If 2 lowercase a’s are in their genotype (aa), then they will be. If it is one of each (Aa), then they will not be albino, but they can pass it on to their kids. You have aa. Someone without albinism in their family at all is AA. If you marry that dude, your child will be Aa (they will not show albinism, but they can pass it on to their kids. If they marry someone with AA, the child will have a 50% chance of AA and a 50% chance of Aa ). If you marry someone with albinism in their family (Aa [actually, they could be AA also, but it is unlikely {it all depends on the parents}]) then your child will have a 50% chance aa (full albino) and a 50% chance Aa (pass it on to their children). Hope that helps. For more info, Google Punnet Squares.

male cant pass any symptoms because, they are XY and only the X holds the phenotype.
female are XX so they can pass the phenotype.
also male that has it cant hide it, because there is only 1 X. the X holds the genes so female may get XA Xa and that hide the phenotype because there is another X with lower case a.

This only occurs if the disorder is X-linked. In this case, it is not. Albinism is recessive and he may have the gene for it, making his gene Aa.
