Heck, they can be darker even if both parents are white.<br />But it is so very rare for a child to be white if the mother is black, even if the father is white as well, because the gene that makes the dark skin is dominant. For the most part, it's safe to assume the white child doesn't belong to the black adult. Out of my 5 biracial nephews, not one of them is white. But nobody ever assumed they don't belong to their white mamas.<br /><br />I strayed off topic.

My mom is as white as you can get but my dad's Indian so I'm really dark. She told me she can't even count the number of times perfect strangers came up to her when I was a baby and asked if I was adopted.<br /><br />Just wanted to point that out, but I agree with you when you said let's give OP the benefit of the doubt.<br /><br />I had a "bad mommy" sighting yesterday that was almost identical to this situation. I almost wanted to say something to her but chickened out because I don't know how appropriate that is.MissMannahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32916951.post-72939549526457209452009-11-04T12:00:08.279-05:002009-11-04T12:00:08.279-05:00chrissyma..."other than skin color?"

My guess is this is normal behavior for her, which is even more chilling. Couldn't the OP or the clerk at the store notify the manager, who could then call the police? I don't know the rules on all that but this seems like child abandonment or endangerment to me.<br /><br />PS: That stroller sounds absolutely darling. I wonder where the mom got it?MissMannahnoreply@blogger.com
