Thoughts? I’ve just recently come across this family so don’t know much about them other than they adopted a little boy from China in 2017 and have now gave up on him based on his additional needs.

I started watching this person and the family channel just before they started talking about adopting Huxley. She was into Minimalism at the time so that how I found her. As soon as Huxley joined the family, I found it to be incredibly unconfortable to watch. She's a fake. There were very small snippets you would see the real her. It was very obvious from day 1 that he was an accessory. I continued watching ONLY to see how he was doing because it just didn't feel right to not keep tabs on him. It was a strange feeling. I felt like he NEEDED people to be ready to help when the time came. She is a vile, pathological lyer, a narcasistic fame hungry, money grabbing, desperate scumbag.

She was told to not adopt a child so close in age to the youngest at the time who was 2. I think there's only a few months difference in their age.

She disclosed his private medical re ords BEFORE she had custody of him. She was TOLD BEFORE she went ahead that his needs would be SEVERE. She still went ahead.

She said that she's a Licensed Nurse and felt OK to take on 99/100 medical needs including severe needs. She is NOT a licensed nicenced nurse. She was a nurse for less than a year but was SACKED FOR ASSAULTING A PREGNANT CO WORKER. There are public documents which confirm this. She has to renew her licence annually but she can't because she obviously doesn't do the necessary work to do it.

She had ANOTHER BABY after Huxley had his diagnosis. She said that this baby, Onyx was the HARDEST BABY she's ever had. He would not be put down. Suggesting she struggled to have time for Huxley, not due to his own needs but the new baby's. The pregnancy and gender reveal was covered by a magazine.

Her channel skyrocketed once Huxley arrived. As did her income. She initially wanted to Foster to adopt but you can't put fostered kids on social media. Only last year, early 2019 I believe she told everyone they were seeking their second adopted child from China. In January 2020 she posted on a Facebook group asking for advice from other people who have adopted from China. She complained that Huxley stared on people earing and it drove her husband bonkers. She KNOWS that Huxley struggles with food because like other children who have grown up in an orphanage and suffered trauma, he's afraid he won't get it again.

Despite buying a very, very exspensive house, car, jewellery, watches she would only get Huxley the CHEAPEST THERAPY not what he actually needed. She asked for donations from her followers to fund his autism assessments because, they were exspensive. They were covered by INSURANCE. You cannot adopt from China without having a certain insurance.

She started a new channel as soon as Huxley left about how to make money. The first video was about making money from you tube. Watch it. That's the REAL MYKA. There's a comment from someone saying she doesn't like Myka on her other channels because she comes across as fake or nice nicely, something like that. Myka has replied with she also doesn't like herself being like that and the new money making channel is the real her.

That poor kid was just a cash horse for her. The world NEEDS laws to protect ALL CHILDREN ON SOCIAL MEDIA. I've felt sick about it since January. She stopped posting about him. A lot of people could sence something was going on. And then the fucker went on a 3 week holiday to BALI. AND did an AD about self care and me time 5 or 6 days before they posted the video about what they'd done to Huxley. Makes me so sick.

Has anyone got screenshots of Tiffani Beaston's reaction to this?

The group of them were in London and stayed with the Sacone Joly's (who BTW use cold showers as punishment for the children). Myka went on and on and on about them, she seriously idolises them. She was in awe of their exploitation abilities.

Didn't know this family until now. I feel really bad for the child. Whatever they say, the child is not doing great and is not thriving in his new family . I work with children who (temporarily or permanently) can't stay with their parents (abuse, neglect... and once we also had a little boy who was "returned" by his adoptive parents because he also had behavioral issues (what a surprise after having been abused and neglected by his biological parents). He was coping as well as he could but he was not well and will have attachment issues his whole life. And their talk about protecting his privacy... Yes right bullshit. Maybe they didn't share his medical history but putting up videos with him in it that are seen by 5 million does not protect his privacy. And the adoption video really made me mad. Did they just see him once and immediately took him with them? That's so disturbing and not how it should work.

What she’s done is vile but I would rather the kid go to a family that are able to accept him and his additional needs than remain with instafamous whores who cannot be bothered to parent him. Absolutely massive upheaval for him, and the effects will be life changing, but I can’t help feeling that perhaps he’s had a lucky escape.

Just watched it 😞 it’s impossible to genuinely cry with glasses on, changing your voice to a sad one doesn’t cut it - completely fake. Secondly, the past couple of weeks have been cleaning videos and DITL types! Have some respect and get off youtube for a bit before posting that you just ditched your adoptive son 👍🏼

It looks like they wanted a special needs child in the first place?! Probably for fucking views.
What the hell
Was she seriously asking what special needs are easy to handle ( :rolleyes: ) but have the stigma of being difficult... so she could get a kid like that and get praise without having to put in much effort?
That’s psychopathic

Disgusted with this family. Would they be so quick to get rid if it were one of their biological children with additional needs? That poor boy is going to be suffering so much. Some people don't deserve the gift of children

I just looked it up on Twitter...so tragic. It seems the little boy they adopted was their cash cow!
He was autistic and couldnt speak English and people are saying how different he was treated. She has even changed her twitter bio to 'mom of 4' like he never existed.
Social media is vile....children are pimped out by their parents for views and likes and stuff like this goes to show you!

I can’t believe the amount of people on YouTube and Instagram that are actually trying to defend them.

I’m not trying to say it wasn’t hard looking after him, at the end of the day he did have special needs and probably had attachment issues, of course that would have been difficult, I think a lot of people would struggle.

But here’s the thing, they CHOSE to adopt a boy with special needs, they CHOSE to ignore advice not to adopt him after a specialist had looked at his brain scans, the CHOSE to ignore the advice that he would probably be extremely difficult, they CHOSE to commit to that little boy despite having all this information, that is the part that makes me sick, that is the part that enrages me the most.

They sit there with their crocodile tears crying about how hard it has been, well boo fucking hoo for you, you CHOSE to take on this little boy knowing his needs, don’t sit their crying and playing the victim when the real victim is that little boy. Birth parents don’t ask for this, however you did ASK for this when you wanted to adopt a child with special needs.

I disagree when people say that the best thing for Huxley was to go to another family, NO, the best thing for Huxley would have been for him to have NEVER been adopted by these people, him going to another home is an unavoidable must and I am glad he is away from them, but it isn’t the best thing for him because this should have never happened, him not being adopted by them would have been the best thing for him.

It seems to be hitting the press now.

This makes me feel a bit better about the situation.

I used to follow them years ago when she was pregnant with her third the same time as I was having a baby. I always found her very fake and something just didn’t sit right.
I stopped following when they adopted Huxley as the language they used around adoption made me really uncomfortable. I remember they were advised to cocoon with him for several weeks after the adoption but they didn’t as they just didn’t want to. Complained about him not understanding them, yet made no attempt to learn Chinese. I remember they before they went to China she did a long video about whether or not she would breast feed him, even though he was two and had never met her. They seemed to resent him early on and were no ill prepared for adoption and had no real interest in doing research.
my heart is broken for him, they have failed as parents. And he’s the one that will suffer. How could they swan off to Bali so soon after without a care in the world. Cold, fake and cruel

They seem to be insinuating that something happened in the home so that they didn’t have a choice. It’s extremely poor form. Don’t parade your children around for money and you won’t have to defend yourself for abandonment and cry fake guilt tears in front of a camera.

P.S I’m new here 💁‍♀️

I've watched a lot of Chinese adoption videos and it seems really common that the child just gets taken away with new parents straight away. I've always found it upsetting. Must be so frightening
I don't know about that but I have friends who are both RNs and adopted 2 Chinese boys and an Indian girl with special needs. Two are completely deaf and one had physical issues. Well, the latter one is in his early 20s now and a straight "A" student. He recently got married and has been back to China (his wife is from mainland China). He's brilliant and very well socialized, his parents had the necessary medical treatments done so his physical issues are in the past. Of the two deaf ones one is borderline intelligent, but trained to work jobs and is very happy (just turned 20) and the other is smart and in college for the deaf.

I am writing this because although foreign adoptions can be hard on a child (adjustment) none of those 3 children would have amounted to a hill of beans if my friends hadn't adopted them. There are some good people out there.
