Hey Kelli, just because you’re ashamed of that zip-bang mess on top of your head, doesn’t mean Z needs to be ashamed of her hair. What this country doesn’t need any more of is self-hating kneegrows like you.

OH Kelli, Thank you, NO I didn’t know that America was a Country! Thank you for enlightening me! Gee, when did America become a Country?

I love the matching black outfits. Very classy. I like to dress my 16 month old son in black, too.

Sandy - do you know that America is a country - not a race? Zahara and her entire family are Americans. When she looks in the mirror, she will see an American with brown skin. I have no doubt that she will continue to have pride and affinity for the country of her birth, as well she should. But her CULTURE will be that of her family and where she grows up. Why bring a child to this country if you feel that the child is unwelcome as a CITIZEN of this country? Zahara will be in the truest sense, African American. That’s really really cool!

As for the humid thing - most likely yes, there is lots of swimming and such and they’re letting it fall as it does. But it has also been a continual issue that Z’s hair looks unkempt and I don’t believe it is some political statement on their acceptance of BLACKNESS (insert raised fist here). I believe that her hair is difficult and mom and dad may be having some issues with keeping it done. That said, they need to learn. She’s a beautiful kid. All of their kids are.

Zee may be an American now that she has been adopted, but when people look at her, and she looks at herself in the mirror when she gets older, she will always be from Ethiopia. There is nothing wrong with that, even Angie wanted to adopt from Third World countries and takes pride in saying her children are from there.

I do think it is just hot and humid and Angie just let it go for the day, usually it is neat and well groomed, some of these pictures are not flattering and that is it.

You know what, Kelli? I think you should mind your own business, tend to that over-processed mess on top of your own head, and let Z’s hair alone.

I’m sorry, Kelly, but to me, saying that she looks worse now than she did when she was first home from the orphanage JUST because you don’t seem to agree with how her parents have chosen to do her hair IS superficial. And when you take the time to think how far this child has come and what her fate likely was had she stayed in that orphanage, you also sound uneducated.

Just because African-American women wear their hair a certain way, does not mean that every women of African descent must or should. Her hair does not need to look like every other black child’s.

She is still African, she is still Ethopian, and just because she is also American, does not negate those things. My point was that just because some African-American women wear their hair a certain way, does not mean EVERY black women around the world follows the same standard.

And I wasn’t talking or lecturing about your hair, I could care less how you do your own hair.
