Good Lord, she's wearing papel picado left-over from someone's Quinceañera!

Don't get me wrong, she herself is preternaturally adorable. But the cut of the shoulders/sleeves make her look schlumpy and much broader than she is, the broken pattern and unflattering waistline make her look like she has no figure, and the very high neckline just turns the whole thing into an overwhelming…
I'm now wondering how many other women had the wrong donor but didn't notice because the kid came out the expected colour?
You think Jennifer would have sued had the unintended donor ALSO been white? The lawsuit makes no mention of the qualities that made the women choose him beyond his race, and to quote, "In an instant, Jennifer's excitement and anticipation of her pregnancy was replaced with anger, disappointment and fear." Yes, I…
Seriously...a (presumably) lesbian couple that is seemingly strong enough to face sexual orientation prejudice head-on but gets stressed out about racial prejudice?
I find it odd that if they are going to talk about the air of nastyness in that community that their sexuality is completely tolerated except her family not being keen on it. It feels like they are pinning it on the child's race. I have a mixed race child and the language of her complaint just doesn't sit well with me…
Right! That's how I read it too. She's saying. "look I'm racist, my family is racist and my friends are racist, and I am not really interested in changing that, so could you take it back" To which I am like I know there is a nice black couple out there that wants a child.
The so-called "intolerant" town accepts two women in a same-sex relationship, but a half Black child is a bridge too far, I guess.
Yes. Exactly. Like, she was totally to expose her kid to all her racist neighbors so long as her kid wasn't the target of said racism. Wut.
What's eating me the most is she seems to have been fine with raising a white baby in a racist town, but now that racism is right in front of her, it's emotionally distressing.
"Just move" isn't great advice for dealing with racism.
I dunno if it's just how you wrote it Hillary but something about this woman is rubbing me the wrong way. I get the sense that she is kind of holding this kid at arms length, like "but... its black!" And I get the shock of having a mixed baby you weren't expecting but isn't the kid half hers? Shouldn't she still want…
Also, she didn't realize when the baby was born that it was mixed? I don't think anyone can deny that it would be legitimately shocking and stressful to give birth to a baby that's an entirely different race than you were expecting. But if you were cool with the baby for 2 years and then you realized that the wrong…
I hope this lawsuit includes a fund for all the therapy Payton will need as she gets older and realizes she was looked at as an aberration. Chalk it up to a happy accident and be glad that your baby doesn't have health issues. This lawsuit only hurts that kid.
Ah the ol' "sperm bank gave me and my lesbian partner the wrong colour baby" grift. The oldest trick in the book.
So raising a child with two moms in America isn't her problem but raising a half black child is? I think I know why they are still in that town.
If the town is that ass backwards and they are lesbians how are they not already feeling discrimination?
Poor Payton.
You already named your kid Payton, you're already on the road to being a terrible mom.
