Talk:Mei Lin Barnes/@comment-4598697-20180204001753

I remember in the episode Mei Lin was introduced, Binky's father said that the adopted baby was going to be a girl. Sadly, this implies that Mei Lin's real parents probably abandoned her because she's a girl. To make matters worse, this is Truth in Television when you take into account China's one-child policy - many parents abandoned their baby girls, some of whom ended up being adopted by foreigners.
