What do you do with a child where one parent is a US citizen and the other
isn't?

A good friend of mine married a British subject: their two young children
have both US and British passports. The family currently lives in England.
When they come  to the US to visit, the kids use their US passports to
enter the US, and when they return to the UK, they use their British
passports to enter the UK.
