COUPLE GIVE UP CHILD, RED HAIR IS TO BLAME
Louisville, KY - After four years of trying to have children, Fred and Linda Gross finally conceived, only to give up the child for adoption. The reason for this would surprise most people. The baby was given up because, he had red hair. "I hate red hair," said Fred Gross after we asked him why he gave up his first and only child.
Fred and his wife had discussed having children many times over the years. However, both of them also hate redheads and agreed that if their own baby had red hair, he or she would be put up for adoption.
"Fred's grandmother had red hair and Fred has freckles, so we thought there could be a chance of a redhead. We had always agreed though, if we do have a fire head, then we would give it up. We just really find redheads unattractive," Linda tells us.
Next door to the Gross' house is an irritated neighbor, with whom we had a chance to speak.
"They should be thrown in jail, the both of them. They've been wanting a child for years now and God gives them one and they throw it away. They should be electrocuted."
Unfortunately, there is no law that prohibits parents from giving up their children through the adoption process. A parent can give up their children for any reason, even if they don't like the color of the child's hair.
