This is really sad if it’s true. It’s very sad that we can’t accept ourselves for who we are. But innocent babies don’t have a choice and they can’t defend themselves.

Both her sons were born with more or less the same colour as her, now she bleaches the both of them. The father in the picture, is totally unaware of this.
