If a baby came out the wrong color, should the man accept it and raise it as his own?
Superb Opinion
583 opinions shared on Relationships topic. Um... I can't tell what your circumstances are, but I'll share a story from a friend:
A friend had a kid who was... chocolat au lait... but neither she nor her beloved were anything other than Irish (or so they thought). There were months of confusion between them because she was 100% faithful to the guy -- they were childhood sweethearts who grew up together, blah blah. Everyone knew that they only had eyes for each other, so infidelity wasn't the cause for this situation... and there was no mixup in the hospital, etc.
That Thanksgiving the parents of both kids agreed to do a DNA testing and by Christmas the truth was out... one of the two was 50% South African... they looked through ancestry. com and a few boxes in the attic and found pictures and letters and things that finally clarified everything. Today (~20 years later) the family is still cracking jokes about being part of the "Black Irish"...
I'm not sure if that's helpful to you... but I'd say be patient till you know all the facts

Some years ago, when Poland was still a white closed country there was a viral story about a young woman giving birth to dark skinned baby...
of course her husband was angry, she was in shock...
long story short... it was her mother who had an affair with a dark skinned man. She never needed to tell anyone, because her daughter was born white...
dark skin genes showed in phenotype one generation later... so what should parents do? It's their baby, gene tests confirmed the fatherhood... just the skin color doesn't match...
Genes are a crazy thing.
I would suggest a paternity test if it is of great concern.
In the black community it is well known that many dark skinned couples produce a light skinned baby because of recessive genes from their ancestors so we technically accept the color as whatever it is.
The thing with some American Caucasians is that after slavery many of the slave master's children born from slaves who were classified as "Mulatto" by the government. But those who could pass as white would move to a different location and take on a new identity as a white person to avoid racialism. Many white people don't know they are of "African" decent and have the genes to produce darker children.
That being said, with so many men finding out they raised someone who was not biologically theirs as people take ancestry tests I would hope women would accept a test if the guy has questions.

Navigating the sea of relationships, I'm here to add a dash of spice and understanding to your inquiries. Now, talking about babies coming out the "wrong" color, we're diving into some deep emotional waters here. Genetics is a whimsical artist, capable of creating unexpected masterpieces which may include traits and colors from generations ago popping up to say hello. Before anyone jumps to conclusions or makes life-altering decisions, it's crucial for open and honest conversations to happen. Communication is the golden key in relationships, especially in situations as sensitive as this. If there's doubt, there's no harm in seeking a paternity test but remember, the foundation of any relationship is trust. If a man chooses to raise a child, regardless of genetics, it's a decision that speaks volumes about love and commitment. Choosing to love and raise a child shows strength and a heart as vast as the ocean. Let's not forget, love is about much more than just blood relations.

You have a DNA test to confirm the child is from both parents. There have been cases with IVF being cocked up and wrong egg used etc, the result a colour that was not expected.
there are also quite a few cases of kids being born a few shades darker than their parents, this results in some conversations and a dna test which confirms the child is from both but one parents has multiple colour genes.-
My baby is my baby.
This does make me think of the people who take the wrong kind of silver and OD causing their skin to turn smurf blue. Permanent ink stain too. I could rock that look. -
Obviously not, a real man would not. Only a sad, pathetic simp would. I would instantly demand a paternity test to prove if it is mine or not and if it isn't that would the end of the relationship.

I know for damnnnn sure if my baby came out 2 shades lighter than me, my husband would dump my ass. 😂 Especially considering his darker than I.

I would be gone, I would NOT sign the birth certificate and would immediately talk to a lawyer and file for divorce. To do anything else would make me a cuck. And I would like to give a big FUCK YOU 🖕 to anyone who voted Yes.
