I was a secret too

I hope things are going better now :(

You are a treasure.

🤗 Hugs

I think in most of the families, there's a secret, too.

If I had circumstances like this family, I couldn't say I would be as willing, to welcome the birth mom. But what a beautiful, journey, I hope the love of a child, their son. Has a beautiful happy ending for all.

I know I cried to

I know right there the very type of ppl if you were A mon in this situation you would spend your life hoping & praying, your kid got lucky enough to have ppl like those to live ur kid, sadly its not always the case but I can tell by hm his parents gave him all he needed and a lot more , ..very cool ppl ..so welcoming to her as well they made it all so much easier ❤

Martin kinda looks alike his birth mother. How cool of his kindhearted parents were. Love it 🥰 Wonderful ending.

Yes yes you totally right you can feel it coming from KZfaq all the way in Baton Rouge Louisiana please be safe and careful 2021 ♥️♥️

He is just a whimp. Adult and father, but needs his old parents opinion to decide to meet his birth mother. And the adopters are selfish, instead of staying in the background and giving the two of them this unique moment, they talk to the birth mother first and then sit on the bench like theater spectators.

She really was the perfect person to facilitate the meeting. Martin is so lucky to have such good parents.

fr! my step dad is adopted and his adoptive mum gets offended at the thought of him finding his birth mum, he has to wait til she passes before he looks and that’s such a shame.

You were so blessed to have a dad that loved you so. Yet, I can only imagine how difficult it is to have lost him so soon. Leaves an indelible mark.

@@meekthegreek1623 beautifully said. Thank you.

Hello Saidi Louise! My father passed away 16 years ago. He has only 37. I loved him so much..I still think about him a lot. And like you said, these kinds of stories help me too. I thank God that I had my father in my life for 11 years..many more years than others would wish for. Knowing how much her father can mean to a girl from an early age to an ooolder age…. I am glad to hear that you too have been blessed with a wonderful father... Stay strong! 😊 I hug you! 🤗

@@Rebecca-oh5yb I cried reading this. Thank you and hugs back!!

blessed are we with fathers who loved us ... my dad was the best man i ever met .... sorry for your loss...xx

Oh, that is so sweet and thoughtful of you! My husband and I are in our forties and are thinking about adopting. We feel like an open adoption would be good so the birth parents can have contact if they wish.

@@raylenenielsen5943 My daughter was born in China so it would be difficult but still...

@@raylenenielsen5943 lots of children full of love and joy need a home in India. 🇮🇳 if you could adopt then the kid will have an amazing life ❤

Hi Heather, how are you doing?

My heart goes out to you wow i cant understand why the rejection .. jope all goes well for you in the future

I am sorry that happened to you. Very sad.

I'm so sorry that you had to endure that just know that family is not always those who share your bloodline many times people you meet on your life's journey become closer than any blood relative and there will come a time when they will reach out to you (when they need your help) then you be there for them to show them that you will not follow in their footsteps but in your own and forgive them not for their sake but for yourself don't harbor any animosity towards them just pray for them always for the good you sent out will return to you atleast you know who they are and it's no longer a mystery may Yah bless you and protect you and your loved ones always and may He strengthen you and keep uplifting you always in Yahshuas mighty name 🙏

I don't think you should take it personally that your birth sister, bio mom/dad were not ready to have contact with you. I don't think their decision to not have contact had anything to do with you. I can see how you would take it personally. But, don't. For whatever reason, they were not ready. But, it is not your fault.

Oh wow, that is shocking! I would be filled with rage if they did that to me. I hope you find peace ❤️💔

Hi Lisa, how are you doing?

Hi Donna, how are you doing?

Facts! I’ve been addicted to these stories for years. I have a great grandma I’ve been searching for for years. Rumor in my family is my great grandfather murdered her. But I don’t know, she may have ran off with another man

Hi Kari, how are you doing?

Me too ! I have a half sister somewhere out there in NSW, unless she moved, I met her at an evening college, I couldn’t get over how much she looked like my older ( half) sister, a few years after that meeting, I found out that mum had another daughter before I was born. This girl explained that she was adopted, I just wish my older sister would search for her !

@@rondellthreadgate8092 Do the most popular DNA tests. Don't expect your sister to do all the work. I found two half-uncles, each on two different tests. Good luck!

Hi Faye, how are you doing?

Hi Catherine, how are you doing?

Same. But I found this show from watching long lost family UK which is so much more authentic and much more sensitive to the stories and the feelings of all the people involved. Im just addicted to real people real stories and real emotional expression hey, that's literally the only reason I'm here

Bless you. Is there no wifi in Zimbabwe?

You are still young. No time like the present to look for her. I found my birth mom when I was 24 and had the pleasure of her in my life for 30 yrs when she passed away.

Hello Becky. Your story would be mine had it not been for my wonderful mother. My pregnancy was horrible, I was 16 when I fell pregnant and 17 when I had him, and my mother stuck up for herself and for me and told him that he WASN'T going to force me to give my baby away and she was the first one to hold him after he was born as I was very unwell after the delivery, and although she died 18 years ago, my son will be 40 next May, he thought of her as another mother and I'm happy about that. My father refused to talk to me for over a year and every time I walked into a room he'd leave it and every time I said hello he'd ignore me. I don't think I could have coped if I'd had to adopt my son out. Go and find your daughter and I wish you the best of luck in doing so. From NSW Australia.

wasn't your fault love.. In the case of the son in the vid,, his mother did choose to not tell anyone but ran away as an adult and not accept the consequences of her actions,, so very sad..BUT, you were clearly forced into it. Hopefully you will meet them one day ❤️ not sure I read that right . you already had a child when you fell pregnant again and gave them up for adoption? maybe my maths are wrong. sorry of I got this wrong. sorry I think I did read that wrong.

How was it your father's decision if you were 23? You were more than old enough to make your own decisions unless you were legally regarded as mentally unstable.

well,,no proper explanation given about the woman who gave "Martin" up for adoption,she was an adult,, didn't give her family a chance to offer support, no one knew she had a baby so to me.. she didn't want to accept any consequences of her actions which were no contraception, esp with a stranger.Its more than unfair women thinking they can have babies then give them away.. I do however understand many reasons for kids being adopted, but I can't get my head around why this woman did.

​@Bored Weegie, wow, you're judgemental and obnoxious with zero concept how unwed teen mothers were treated back then.

Sk. She did the right thing

Hi Brenda, how are you doing?

Hi Ann, how are you doing?

Hi Lynn, how are you doing?

I do too, hello from the USA

Same here, so glad she didn't wait!!! Enough lost time.

I loved all 3 stories!

No I’m not crying I’m sobbing, and struggling to type through my tears.

Ha we're all crying all too beautiful 😍
