This Youtuber adopted an autistic child, and then used him for content before giving him up for adoption (again)

Youtube is a bizarre place that often finds its creators in the midst of desperate attempts for content. This week Myka Stauffer takes the cake as the douchey-creator of the week after it surfaced that she adopted a tot from China who has autism; used him for content, and then abruptly gave him up for adoption again because she couldn’t “care” for him she claims.

Stauffer and her cheesy boyfriend adopted Huxley sometime around 2017. After appearing together in numerous monetized videos; interviews, sponsorship deals and the like — he’s now no longer with the family because they claim they couldn’t care for him.

While the situation is murky — the couple has apparently offered a statement to Buzzfeed News offering a half-ass glimpse into their decision. Let’s start there.

“We are privy to this case and given the facts at hand, we feel this was the best decision for Huxley,” the attorneys said in their statement. “In coming to know our clients, we know they are a loving family and are very caring parents that would do anything for their children. Since his adoption, they consulted with multiple professionals in the healthcare and educational arenas in order to provide Huxley with the best possible treatment and care. Over time, the team of medical professionals advised our clients it might be best for Huxley to be placed with another family. This is devastating news for any parent.”
