I completely understand them being upset because they got the wrong sperm. But whey the [EXPLETIVE] do they think this child will be ridiculed in school and just life period? Because she's black? Because her skin is darker than her sister? Thats the part I don't get. These parents need to get a grip and make sure that beautiful child is loved. |

THANK YOU SEEKER! That Dominican lady should be ashamed of herself! The child is at least still half of hers and she is making it seem like the little girl is so horrid to look at! WHY? If I didn't know better I would say BOTH children look BLACK!
They should still sue because of the mistake but they make it seem like they are suing because the child is more BLACK instead of WHITE. |

My homegirl is Black and is dating a Dominican and his family isn't all that happy with that. I don't think it is that they can't stand black people it is what comes with being black that they don't want mixing in their family |

Look all I know is they need to clean that clinic dry. It is not a matter of how pretty the litle girl is, its a matter of right and wrong and if it were me I would be outraged. That is not her husbands BIOLOGICAL child which is what they were intending. If they wanted a baby that wasnt of their blood she could have adopted and saved herself the jiggly after pregnancy gut and stretchmarks!
PS: anyone non white is this country is like being black...lol
Secondly, there is nothing wrong with someone correcting someone else because they are proud of their heritage. I don't take offense to that at all. If you are dominican and I mistake you fro african american and you correct me, its all good.
Real woman is correct because my momther and father are both of hispanic decent...Panamanians and they are black hispanics. |

I understand where they are coming from, and I would sue as well; but just for the mix up and nothing else. That little girl is beautiful. I agree with seeker it's not like both parents got a child that wasn't their's. I thought the mother was black untill I read dominican. I don't know she maiking a big deal out of the child being part black b/c regardless of what she is america gone see her a Black. Mixed kids go throug stuff just like everybody. I attend SF State and i got a girl in my class now half black half asian who was crying because she says neither race accepts her. |

Something similar happened over here in England. A white woman gave birth to an Asian baby (Asian as in Indian) and the woman said after she gave birth she was 'sick to her stomach' or something like that.
I think this couple should give the child up for adoption if they are forcing themselves to love her and if they are reminded of the 'horid' mistake everytime they look at her. Thats not right. And why would the girl be ridiculed???? What, do they think just because you're Black people will automatically make fun of you? Thats messed up.People would just assume she's mixed since her mother looks part Black anyway.
The little girl will grow up knowing that she was a mistake and her parents gained financial benefits from it.
"I was a mistake my parents look at me and think I'm a horid mistake, I'm the only Black one, I don't belong, my parents went to court and sued the hospital for compensation-to make up for what a horrible mistake I am" What a shame. I feel so sorry for that little girl.
Not to mention identity issues she may well have in the future. |

i think that they should give the girl up to a family that would love her but on the other hand i cant understand how the women can look at something she created because the child is half hers and really say some of the things she say. that little girl deserves to be raise dby people who love her not people who would look at her as a mistake caue no children are mistakes but some of their parents sure are. |

Tell me about it. If they're reminded daily that she has another father, give this child to a loving family who won't think about that.
I'd sue too to teach this hospital a lesson but what does the mother think about her Dominican ancestry? Dominicans have African ancestry too. Look at Sammy Sosa. |

You can say that [EXPLETIVE] again..forreal. Dominican is a NATIONALITY, not a race. Thats like me saying im a Texan, not black. Just plain stupid. And the worse part is our Afro-Hispanic brothers and sisters, think they aren't black. Oh yes, your ancestors were stripped and stolen from the some place as mine. Embrace your blackness. |

I think you are missing the point..They don't hate the child for being black...they hate the fact that the child is not from BOTH their blood. The family is not bothered by the fact that the child is black, they are bothered because the child is not from his making. I don;t think color is the point here. And there is a remarkable difference between the child and the rest of the family. It's not fair to ask them to just...'get over it.' This is a big deal...and very careless on the part of the clinic. |

appled...thats all well and good. The hospital made a mistake, yes they did.
The parents WANTED a child from both of them. The child IS NOT from both of them. Therefore, UNWANTED.
The parents are upset about the mistake yes....but what about that little girl?
I'm not saying 'ok the hospital messed up now get over it' but if they can't get over it (and no amount of money will help them get over it) then they should give her up for adoption.
They have forced themselves to love her because she was UNWANTED. How do you think the little girl will feel about that? Living in a home where you're not wanted? 'Everytime I look at that Black kid I remember the horrible mistake the hospital made. Why did she have to be Black? Why God why?'
Can you imagine how the little girl feels?

Naw appled I think you are overlooking the fact that they are ALSO mad that the child is more Black than white. Think about it...why did they want a paternity test to begin with?
In case you haven't noticed...the father is the one who looks out of place because the first child BARELY looks like she is half white herself. The hair is the only sign or else I would've said that child was full Black hispanic too.
Figure this, what if the child had just took on more of her mom's Black features on it's own? Look at Halle Berry! They would have still questioned the paternity and it would have been because the child looks MORE BLACK. Why didn't the mother just chalk it up to strong genes on her part?
Had that mistake been made and it was a white man they would probably have NEVER questioned the baby...but because the child took more Black features (hence the 'something is wrong here') they decided to test the paternity. Are you trying to say that they would have tested that paternity had the mistaken dad been white? C'mon now....
The shows that they paid special attention to their concerns because of the 'extreme'blackness of the child. They should just give her to a family that wants her because they don't sound like they do. |

Again here is another case of another hispanic person trying to take the role of presenting themselves as being caucasian. They are nothing but n*ggers in denial! Wake up! And what is the difference in features? I see none. Both children look black to me. This woman is full of sh*t and I would take the child away from them on GP.
Remember the white family that had the fertility accident where the woman was inseminated with black sperm and she ended up having one black boy and a white boy. She fought tooth and nail to keep the baby boy regardless to what his skin color was. The Lord blessed you with a child...be a parent to it. This just makes me sick. She's come a long way from the outhouse she lived in back home on the Islands! |

Just and FYI 73% of Dominicans are multiracial and they are of Haitian decent. Most of them are so mixed the fuk up that no one race is dominant (other than black) ie: the dark skin they have. That child is beautiful and healthy. And NO I don't believe she was cheating I do think the clinic made a mistake they do it all the time. That child will not suffer ridicule from anyone but here parents why.. Because she is a cute black girl with good hair.. Those parents need to be ashamed of themselves especially the mother because if she checked her history she would know she got black in her.. What was the purpose of the home dna testing I mean why does her darker skin bother them so much? Some children take on characteristics of family members, sometimes they could have the great grandmother's eye color and so on..

btw...another quote from that couple coming from another website:
'The couple says that they have been forced to raise a child who is “not even the same race, nationality, color ... as they are,” the judge said in the ruling.'
See they do not deserve to have that little girl. They don't deserve either of them. They are both intolerant idiots. This is just more proof that being in an interracial relationship doesn't automatically make you some sort of open minded all loving person... |

We all know when a black person has good hair they don't see them as being all black people automatically assume they have white in them because of the hair quality.. I guess it doesn't cross their minds that it could also be indian instead.. |

When you put gel in it when you want a ponytail the sh!t curls up and I HATE THAT.. So, I put a relaxer in mine and that makes it more versatile.. My eldest sister has very thick hair, it is long and beautiful but not as fine as the hair we have..
My little one has the same type of hair we do and when you hot comb her hair and then she sweats from playing outside.. IT's over the hot combing is gone..
My oldest daughter has thick hair and I love it because all you have to do is perm it and she is good to go..
I wouldn't trade my black hair for anything.. We are the only race that has so much versatility with it... |

now she KNOW she was out there creepin'. j/k, but that seems more probable to me. cheat on your man then sue a fertility company to cover it up and get some extra money while doing it. oh, and everybody knows there's good hair and bad hair. black people can have bad hair, white people can have bad hair. that's the shyt that breaks the comb when you try to comb it and always stays frizzy no matter what kind of junk you put in it to hold it down. |

"While we love Baby Jessica as our own, we are reminded of this terrible mistake each and every time we look at her,"
While that is a dumb statement, I think we are reading into it. What I believe she meant is that it truly was a mistake, and that her daughter(presently) was not what she was expecting. I mean, imagine you(a black woman) giving birth to a white baby on accident. You don't think you would look at her with confusion? Don't you think you would be like, WTF?? I think she loves her daughter she just got caught off guard. She does come off a lil' ignorant, but I seriously don't think she dislikes her daughter. The truth is that it was a mistake, but perhaps she should have rephrased it. |

Nope sorry again I don't believe in that bad hair mess. I don't care. White people don't refer to frizzy hair as bad hair so don't kid yourself...they refer to OUR Black hair as bad hair and have done so for centuries. They even started the straightening and lightening of Blacks campaign. That is where those terms came from. I have seen the ads from..shoot just the 50's! I love naps and that is good hair to me! |

IN MY OPINION... I feel that they won't love this child to the extent that would have had she been white, and that's the sad part. I really think that if they're not already, they will eventually start treating her differently from the older child. I know and understand that it was a terrible mistake, but that's the chance you take when you go to those clinics. |

This has got to be some of the most ridiculous mess i've ever heard. Granted, I can understand being totally PISSED that my child wasn't my husbands as well. That is totally understandable. When you pay for a service, especially something so serious, you expect for it to be done THE RIGHT WAY! With that being said, i have a problem with the mother saying the child will be ridiculed in school. Why do they feel that way? I mean the oldest daughter is mixed as well, will she be ridiculed too? The only reason i see this child being ridiculed is because they have opted to go public with this story. Everyone in the country has seen the cute "family" photo and i doubt will forget those faces and names for quite some time... |

whats wrong with a Dominican Republican not wanting to consider themselves Black? White and Black are American labels. I (being from Africa) can vouch for that. Now, denying that African is in most of their blood is one thing, but not admitting Black is another. I am not black, I am African, American. The wife is not Black, she is Dominican, American. Now do I think she doesn't have a problem with the child being half African American, NO. But why does that matter? |

I'm not gonna comment on the main issue since you're all doing a good job of that, i'd just like to briefly talk about the myth that a black person's (specifically Black Woman's) hair is "bad" in comparison to the hair of every other race.
1: The reason that a "White" (or caucasian if you prefer) person's hair is naturally distinct from the hair of an African's (for ex) has more to do with the environment their ancestors grew up in. The smooth nature of their hair is not nature's way of defining their hair as a "good" kind of hair but has more to do with the manner of environment their ancestors lived in.
For ex Whites can be traced back to the Vikings who had hair that was shaggy or hirsute and not at all fine or smooth like the kind of hair a White person of today is generally considered as having. If you go even farther back you'll see that having lots of hair (not just on your head but all over your body) was a benfit for a White person when living in a naturally cold environment; the climate where white people per ce are generally thought to derive their pigment and hair texture from. More hair=more warmth and over the eons thanks to expansion into other environments less hair (therefore less shaggy like overabundant hair) has been needed with each and every succeeding generation of Whites. Nature adapted them accordingly.
The naturally rough (or nappy) hair that has been generally associated with Africans and their genetic descendants (to a lesser degree today thanks to racial integration) is ALSO a benefit in regards to the enviroment that they are generally thought to originate from, which is to say: Africa. Because of the heat of Africa a white person's hair on a black person's body would be more of a hindrance than anything else and would be nothing more than an aesthetic benefit. A Black person's hair however would be an actual benefit in this environment, since the course nature of their hair would naturally soak in sweat and generally serve to help regulate overall body temperature. This is why a black person's hair is not "Bad" per ce and is generally considered so in contrast to other races by an individual person making an incongruous statement purely from a position of personal view.
Btw Human ancestry can be traced back to Africa thanks to the oldest known human remains being dicovered there. Without injecting religion into it Africa is without question the source of all modern day human life.
As far as religion goes it is generally believed that Africa was in close approximation to -if not the source of- the Garden of Eden, where Christians believe the first signs of omni colored human life originated thanks to God. |

oh lawd, please get off the racist hair thing. black people and white people can have good or bad hair. my hair is not nappy at all, it's pretty much straight, and i'm black. i just get a perm to thin it out cause it's really thick and hurts like hell to comb (VERY tenderheaded). i've seen PLENTY of white people who don't like their fizzy or curly hair, and get their hair straightened just like a black person would w/ a flat iron. not all people see black hair as bad hair, if it seems that way to you it's cause you look at it that way. some black people have nappy, natural hair that just looks a mess, and other black people have natural hair that looks very nice and beautiful with out chemicals. it's all how you take care of it.
anyway, and about that quote the lady said about seeing the mistake in her daughter, i can kinda see why somebody would say that. imagine that you and your husband turn to a fertility clinic to have a child to find out that the clinic made a mistake and that your child is the baby of another man, not your husband. imagine being that husband knowing that he has a child in his house that is supposed to be his own flesh and blood, but instead the child is the daughter of an unknown man. that's the mistake that would be thought of. raising another person's child is one thing when it's by choice, but it's a whole different issue when it's the result of a mistake. |

I think the mother is upset at the fact that the little girl is black, more than the mix up from the clinic. But from the looks of it the little girl looks mixed to me. The mother needs to deal with it. I still believe they should sue because they did NOT get what they paid for, but I hope they don't treat the little girl any different from her sister because of a sperm mix up. She is very beautiful.
