Becoming an influencer and a parent means learning to deal with all sorts of comments about your child—some well-meaning, some hurtful.
Malaysian singer Jeii Pong (庞琂予) recently found herself in the latter situation after people started questioning her son’s appearance.
Now, the 29-year-old is setting the record straight.
Jeii took to Instagram to share an emotional video about her toddler, Galax.
She revealed that he was born with large, dark birthmarks covering most of his face and body.

At first, she thought they were temporary, but doctors later confirmed they were permanent.
Although birthmarks aren’t uncommon, Galax’s condition sparked troubling speculations.

Some assumed he was being abused, while others hinted that Jeii’s actions during pregnancy might have caused them.
Understandably, the comments took a toll on her, making her feel guilty despite knowing she did nothing wrong.

For a long time, Jeii and her husband kept their son’s condition private, fearing he might be bullied.

At one point, they even considered having the birthmarks removed.
However, after much thought, they decided to embrace Galax’s uniqueness and share their story with the world.
Following her heartfelt revelation, Jeii received overwhelming support.

Friends, fans, and fellow parents flooded her with messages of encouragement.
Many reminded her that birthmarks are natural and that what truly matters is Galax’s happiness and health.
Parenting comes with its share of worries, but Jeii’s decision to openly embrace her son’s birthmarks sends a powerful message.
Hopefully, this marks the beginning of more acceptance and positivity for little Galax and his family.
