I mean I get the concern but this kinda reads like "aye, we didn't want a brown one"

What a take.

I feel like having a strangers DNA injected into you against your will is something you can complain about without someone clutching their pearls over race lol

Steven Mills and Tiffany Score, both of whom are caucasian, had a child through IVF via Orlando fertility clinic IVF Life, Inc.

The female child, born Dec. 11, 2025, “displayed the physical appearance of a racially non-Caucasian child,”

It's literally about race apparently to these parents.

But. Your point is entirely valid, it's wrong that they had an embryo that wasn't theirs.
