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.

it doesn't matter for the parents but why the relatives or the society always interfere or comment in one's personal life . we are the creatures of allah and we all are same ....everyone is beautiful in ones ownself ......

Hi all...
According to me beauty is all are a mask of fakeness. Is any mom throw out their babies because of their complexion or about other malignancies? No, all have their little one's are princess and Prince. I have a baby she is my entire world, when I looks her I feel my life got worthy and meaningful. Like others firstly I think is her skin much darker than others and want to try some skin fairing methods. But I realize that all are surely rubbish as her smile and cuteness made my world brighter and more brighter. Babies are born with their ancestral features, that is why they look fair or dark. So before blaming them you must look yourself . Babies are special gift from God don't put them under color division. Mainly Indians have dark complexion but always thinks that they western people . In my view color is not a matter. Beauty is not a matter, is any beautiful persons does not made any crimes? No. It's only about personalities. Beauty is once own beautiful personality.

It's absolute rubbish to limit such a beautiful creation of God to just a color. Brown, Dark brown, wheatish, white these are just colors; why just restrict them to beautiful and not so beautiful. Let's teach our children to be responsible citizen and be just humans.
