The choice of laser treatment to address her son’s birthmark has ignited a wave of critique aimed at a mother, Brooke Atkins. Undeterred by the backlash, Brooke stands resolute, clarifying that her decision is rooted in deeper considerations than what critics may perceive.
Parenthood is a cherished aspiration for countless couples, offering boundless joys alongside formidable responsibilities. Among these priorities is the unwavering commitment to safeguarding a child’s well-being, happiness, and readiness for life’s challenges.
Brooke Atkins garnered widespread attention with her recent decision concerning her second son, Kingsley. Born with dark stains enveloping half his face, medical examinations revealed these to be port-wine stains stemming from vascular malformation. Particularly concerning was their proximity to Kingsley’s eyes, raising fears of Sturge-Weber syndrome and potential complications like glaucoma.
In collaboration with her partner, Kewene Wallace, Brooke sought medical intervention for Kingsley’s birthmark at the Queensland Children’s Hospital. Specialized consultations with dermatological and vascular experts recommended laser treatment as a means to preserve skin health and mitigate risks to surrounding tissues.
However, despite the medical rationale behind her decision, Brooke found herself besieged by criticism, with many decrying the move as superficial and excessive, leaving her grappling with guilt and uncertainty. Amidst the tumult of public opinion, some voices echoed empathy and understanding towards Brooke’s predicament.
In the face of such scrutiny, one might wonder how they would navigate similar circumstances. Parenthood often necessitates confronting weighty decisions that test the boundaries of one’s resolve. Ultimately, each parent must trust their instincts and make choices they believe are in the best interest of their child.
White woman gave birth to a black baby from her white husband
Rachel, a new young mom from Tennessee, gave birth to a lovely baby boy on February 17.
Working as a cashier at the Celina 52 Truck Stop, the place posted on their Facebook congratulating on the new addition to the family. They shared a post along with a photo of the happy family with the caption, “Congratulations to our cashier Rachel and her fiancé Paul Buckman on their baby Cash Jamal Buckman being [born] on Saturday at 6:18pm.”
What caught the attention of many was that both Rachel and Paul are white while their baby is black.
As expected, people started posting mean comments under the post, accusing Rachel of cheating.
The store then added another post offering an explanation.
“Yes, Paul is the father. Rachel has African American DNA in her which can skip generations and cause a child to be born with darker skin,” they wrote.
Further, they stated that there might be possibility of jaundice, and ended their post with, “Please be kind.”
However, this didn’t put a stop on the jokes people continued making on the expense of the couple.
“Congratulations!!! I AM sure he looks just like his dad. Where is he?” one person commented.
“Definitely needs a DNA test; what if they accidentally mixed up the kiddos in the nursery?” another added.
“I feel sorry for Paul, being duped like this is a whole new level of creep. Hopefully he’ll wise up,” a third wrote.
Looking at the comments, Rachel decided to share a post that included her her own ancestry test results. She wrote, “For the haters saying that I [don’t] have black DNA maybe this will clear it up straight from my ancestry DNA results !!!! NOW STOP slandering mine and my [fiancé] Paul Buckman name. he IS the father of Lil Cash.”
