Better for them to admit that, than carry on, because that kid would have a chitty life being raised by people who resented him/her.

Not everyone can see into the future like you.
bro, you dont ****ing get it.

THEY VOLUNTARILY chose to adopt him KNOWING HIS DISABILITY. Did you parents sit down and go 'gee let's have a disabled baby'?

No?

Didn't think so

he asked for research, not entertainment.

Ok?

What's your point.

They tried for 3 years and found they couldn't cope. Just because your voluntarily do something, doesnt mean you know how it will go.

its research you stupid fuk. its a god damn documentary based on actual researchers and scientists blowing the whistle with people and their personal experiences to prove it. there's a reason you dont hear it being widespread. money controls things to keep you sheep unaware.

just because an actor is promoting it doesnt mean its entertainment full of fiction. way to dismiss it without even looking at it.

How they went from poverty during WW1 to one of the most superpower nations in the world today....They are experiencing the most amazing improvements in their standard of livings. The last 30 years, they have access to education, housing, health care, and travel in the way they never had before in their lives.

And US are telling the Chinese to get rid of the CCP...Why?
Yes, the Chinese are overall more prosperous. Their government thinks collectively, plans for the long term, and has been effective in improving their economy via broad scale blatant propaganda and censorship, brutally enforced policies and environmental degradation.

AboutOne Child Nation
Parents need to know that One Child Nation is an unflinching documentary about China's one-child population-control policy and how it played out in the lives of regular people. Dialogue is usually in Chinese with English subtitles, but some English is spoken as well. What seems at first like a light examination of history quickly turns into a look at haunting and truly horrific acts, as former officials talk about presiding over forced abortions, forced sterilization surgeries, the destruction of the houses of those who had more than one child, and even babies who were born alive but killed by midwives who frankly relate their deeds and say they had "no choice" but now fiercely regret what they've done. Photographs from an artist whose work concerns the one-child policy show abandoned babies in plastic bags tossed into piles of trash, with decomposed faces and bodies visible. The artist also has a fetus preserved in a medical jar and talks about how finding it affected him. Subjects also talk about abandoning their babies to die, such as one girl that was left at a market meat counter after her grandmother threatened to kill the baby and herself if her parents didn't desert the baby. One subject smokes a cigarette during an interview, and interviewees say "f--k" during their segments. Co-directors Wang, who appears in her documentary, and Zhang courageously confront horrors in China's recent past, and interview subjects with compassion while asking (very) tough questions that elicit haunting, appalling memories.

She just wanted a full refund.

Buyer's remorse.

It shouldn't surprise you that some see people, and even mentally challenged children, as a means to an end.

Well, people are commodities now. It's no different from a Woman killing their unborn child after they find out they have Down Syndrome or because they're not ready.
To think if she had killed her unborn child she would be considered "brave"
When you start debasing human life and make excuses as to why they are not valuable or that somehow your lifestyle is more valuable than your offspring then you make commodities out of people. When you convince the population that denying a child their fundamental right to know their biological father and mother because we need to ensure gay couples can adopt you slowly chip away the humanity and sacredness of life.

She once used her adopted baby to advertise a detergent - disgusting indeed
"Huxley was also featured in a July 2018 video titled “5 Things I Didn’t EXPECT About Our China ADOPTION! International ADOPTION,” which was sponsored by Dreft — a hypoallergenic laundry detergent for newborns."

Nobody is judging for just giving up the kid, they are judging for literally parading their foreign adoption kid around youtube and then discarding him when things got too hard.

Isolated the social media part, I cannot blame them for trying, it's a task nearly no-one will understand. It's easy to say just do it, take care of them as an armchair critic.

However, the way they profit and display this all makes me give no sh*t about their predicament. There millions of parents every day taking care of disabled children and they don't have to advertise and try profit. Youtube just spreading more rehearsed and packaged emotions all for the same NPC responses and attention.

They are just shameless scumbags, another whore product of social media.

just lol. as a little baby

they didn’t even wait till the kid was older to see the extent of the autism. I know some autistic kids I grew up with who are successful in math/physics etc. the kid didn’t ask to be born.

those fools are attention whores and narcissists.

these the kind of people who start gofundme's, get thousands of dollars then just disappear. In one of the vids she mentions the kid gets 6 hours of therapy a day, she must drop him off somewhere like an accessory. They almost certainly would have been told of his issues before adoption.

IDK. I hate to judge people on the surface level. Maybe they did want to help a child. Maybe they didn't. It's possible they took it too lightly and the kid does have some serious problems.

I guess it's the difference between a good, caring person who wants to have kids and parents who have kids just because it's something people do for fun.

Since 2017 the couple received sponsorship deals and video revenue.

While some understood the decision, critics accused the pair of exploiting Huxley to build their YouTube career.

The news that Huxley is living permanently with another family was revealed on Tuesday after followers noticed he had not been seen in a video for some time.

The couple said unspecified behavioural issues from Huxley had made life too difficult for the family, which includes four other children."

CLIFFS
-Couple adopt a toddler with autism from China in 2017
-They build a YouTube channel and basically monetise videos of the toddler so their channel grows, earning them sponsorship money etc
-3 years later, she gives the kid to another family, saying they struggle to deal with the adopted son who has autism
-Extreme backlash and outrage occurs (she even disabled YouTube comments)

not even going into the blatant explotation thing, I can't believe her lack of self-awareness running an ad like that...
