Luckily For YouTuber Myka Stauffer, 'Rehoming' Her Adopted Son Isn’t Illegal, Just Horrible
Latest

Myka Stauffer, a lifestyle/mommy YouTuber who recently went viral for “rehoming” her adopted son Huxley, a toddler from China with special needs, to his “forever family,” will not face criminal charges. Apparently, referring to your adopted son with language commonly used when fostering an unruly pet isn’t against the law! Ohio’s Delaware County Sheriff’s Office opened and closed an investigation into Huxley’s welfare after receiving numerous requests from concerned parties skeptical of the conditions of Huxley’s re-adoption.
According to BuzzFeed, Huxley seems to be doing alright with his new family. Deputy Susanna Leonard of the Delaware County Sheriff’s Office described a meeting with Huxley’s “prospective adoptive parents” on June 9: “When we walked into the office, [Huxley’s] adoptive mother was singing a song to him as he was sitting on her lap smiling,” Leonard said. “[Huxley] appeared to be very happy and well taken care of… [he] seemed very active and showed no signs of any abuse from what I could visually see.” She also said the sheriff’s department performed welfare checks on Stauffer’s four biological children, Kova, Jaka, Radley and Onyx, and interviewed the couple on June 4. They found no signs of abuse.
