they announced that they were aiming to adopt a little boy from China. They added they were even considering adopting another child, from “Uganda or Ethiopia,” once this adoption went through.

Myka plugged a fundraiser she had organized for Huxley’s unspecified needs. She said every person who donated $5 would unlock a different piece of a 1,000-piece puzzle, which would, at the end, be a photo of Huxley that she would reveal to the world. She also said she would write the names of all donors in his baby book.

“He is a great kid and his condition doesn’t involve that much overall care—all you need is a big heart and practice patience everyday. It’s a different kind of patience,” she wrote.

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.
I can understand the metal/physical toll it must take on a person to care for a special needs child. If this was truly the case, any money they made off him should be given to the kid or put in a TRUST for the kid. That'll make me believe them. Pretty sure they didn't reach 700k subs without the kids help.

But now, they just used the kid for the publicity, and when things got difficult, they got him re-adopted.

People do dumb chit all the time and most humans aren't cut out to be parents in the first place and yet it doesn't stop them from having more kids.

Like I said earlier, these people probably thought it would be fun to adopt a special needs child.

The reality is parenting can be fun but it isn't always fun. These guys bailed out because it stopped being fun for them. They probably never cared enough for the kid anyway considering they gave him away so fast

Anyway he's better off elsewhere with another parent who aren't adopting kids just to show them off like a pet on Youtube.

Imagine being separated from your birth parents (for what ever reason), adopted just so you can give a family millions of those youtube shekels, and then having every second of your life recorded with a camera just to be tossed away given to another family.

Humans can be scumbags man. And they had two other kids. So maybe this adopted kid formed a bond with those kids, but now he has to move on to another family.

Sick and tired of these white saviour couples getting foreign babies just for clout and on top of that they specifically got an autistic child to maximise their earnings. Lol just lol.

Couldn’t even watch the video with this bitch crying expecting people to actually feel sorry them. Absolute kunts.

Bitch just sounds weird.

Normal people don't talk like that.

SMH at people like them having legions of followers.

Just showcases the lack of critical thinking out there.

If this sloot and her husband didn't earn tons of money and obvious exploit this situation and the kid for financial gain, it wouldn't be beyond the realm of possibility that they genuinely wanted to help the child, but the "fit" didn't work in their house. They already had kids, and it's very possible that the environment was not optimal for the growth and required care needed to help the autistic boy . Perhaps therapy and professional opinion led to the agreement he needed a home without other children.

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.
Oh I'm judging. This was a strategic plan to shed the wagecuck lifestyle, and get paid to be an "influencer" full time. Fuk them.

Cosign ×1000. It would be one thing if they had adopted the child because they actually gave a chit, gave it the best shot they could've and just could not make it work. This was blatant exploitation from the jump and anyone who doesn't see that is an absolute fukktard with a room temperature or lower IQ.

I wonder if the trigger for them giving the kid back was that their views/whatever started slipping to the point that the kid was or would eventually become a financial burden rather than a cash cow... I'd like to see the stats on how much they were making off their channel pre adoption, immediately after adoption, and towards the end.

If by "fun" you mean "being the primary source of narcissistic supply" then we are on the same page. There are absolutely some adoptive parents who expand their families for altruistic reasons, but the vast majority I've met are NPD, white savior lunatics. I can think of one person out of maybe 50 who is a decent person and good parent.

My guilty pleasure is watching that Counting On show about the Duggar kids (yeah I know, it's insane) and I swear, every single couple talks about going off to someexoticplace to pick out a kid. It's fuking insanity, none of them work, they have no education and see nothing wrong with their discount child trafficking ring.
