I don't know what I was expecting after she said, but they're also something else.

I swear this seems to happen a lot. I'm sure this is the 3rd story I've seen of this happening - just in the UK, over the years.

It happens everywhere. Multiracial/ biracial families produce children of all varying hues. Hell, even within just black families, there are kids of varying browns from the same parents. Genes are fun!

It’s just more obvious when the parents have very different appearances, but it’s not that uncommon for a child to look a lot like one parent and not much like the other. I have a friend who looks like a copy of their mom, so I guess if the parents were different races, I could totally see it working out like this twin.

I find it interesting when I child turns out to be a near copy of a completely different family member, like an aunt or great grandparent.
