Bullying/Teasing Takes a Toll on a Child’s Mental Health
Imagine being ridiculed every day and being told that you were adopted or not part of your family. That would sting quite a bit. Such bullying might be done all the time, but it hurts worse when you’re part of a biracial twin set. These people often feel unappreciated, depressed, and might even start to believe what others say. It can also happen when people aren’t being rude, as the same questions can take a toll.
A Family of Biracial Twins!
The Spooner family is considered unique almost anywhere they go. Not only do they have a pair of biracial twins, but they actually have two pairs. They gave birth to a set of twins who featured different skin tones. About seven years later, they had another set of twins, who were also biracial. Geneticists claim this happens because people are marrying outside the gene pool, which breaks down the barriers between the races. It’s likely to happen more often soon, but now it’s still a rarity.
