This Youtube Family Vlog Channel Abandoned Their Kid - The Stauffer Family story
17 May 2025
Description
YouTubers Myka and James Stauffer faced widespread backlash after announcing they had "rehomed" their adopted son, Huxley, a child with autism from China who had featured prominently in their videos. The couple cited being unprepared for the extent of Huxley's special needs, despite earlier expressing confidence in handling such challenges. Critics accused them of exploiting Huxley for content and then giving him away when his needs became too challenging. The controversy led to the deletion of their family channel and Myka's retreat from social media.
