when my daughter was born no one came from my in laws (except my husband) in hospital to see my Mee and my daughter. after 2 months my father in law died, then I went to my in laws home with my daughter, no one showed any interest in new born baby. my sister in law taunts Kali(black). I was not hurted because she called her black I got hurted because none of them had feeling for the new born baby. the colour of baby would never decide how much I love her. and her fate wouldn't be decided on her colour. the people who cry to get white complexion and those who thinks white skin is beautiful they all belongs to a lower mentality. if you are not fair so it doesn't mean you not beautiful and if you can't speak English language so it doesn't mean you have lack of knowledge.
she is so cute.... cute sa pari....

Every child is beautiful.. Beauty is all about mind and not the way which we look.. we should teach our children's not only to look beautiful but also how to look and live in this world more beautiful and meaningful... we should also teach them to be happy and make everyone happy😀😀😀

For me beauty stands second as you have to focus on building a great confidence in your child and i believe its not depends on ur child is fair or dark.
Its all depends on parent how u want to raise ur child to survive in the society confidently and wonderfully.
They are very innocent at this stage and this is the time u can raise them as u want them to be.
