The little ones wearing sunglasses, im sure to protect their identity, they're so cute.
@JessieI 2 ай бұрын
Yes they are adorable 😄. But everyone, even children should wear sunglasses, especially now. Sun exposure is why we develop Cataracts. It may be that Peter knows this and is protecting his children's eyesight, or it may be that the children just like wearing sunglasses 😎😎. Ideally, we should be wearing sunglasses and hats from infancy. I'm in my mid sixties, I wish I had begun wearing them sooner, but I did begin wearing hats in my teens, and sunglass clips on my eyeglasses at 39 when they were available to me. I don't have cataracts yet. I'm sure I will at some point, my eye doctor says they are inevitable, but I can minimize the damage. So I never step outside without sunglasses and a hat. I developed a nice hat collection. 😃

@@JessieI I still say it's to protect their identity.
@JessieI 2 ай бұрын
You know, it could be, anything is possible and Peter never says why. Amazingly, large sunglasses do seem to provide enough disguise many times. Apparently humans need to see a full face to make a good ID. But in cases where someone is well known, sunglasses are not always enough, ask celebrities if they always work 😆. I doubt Peter can hide these two from anyone who presently knows them, but it's probable that when they are adults these videos will not identify them very well, if at all. Few people resemble their childhood photos.
@JessieI 2 ай бұрын
Yes, it could be so. Only Peter knows. Humans definitely struggle to identify people without seeing a full face. Covering either the bottom or top half presents a problem for us. Sunglasses may not be a perfect disguise, ask celebrities 😄, but they're better than nothing, ya? People who know the kids now are likely to recognize them even with the sunglasses. However, because most of us do not very much resemble our childhood selves, these sunglasses may provide an extra layer of protection/disguise for them when they are adults.

My mom was so loving, but she had so serious mental health issues and she had to leave us and she went to a mental hospital. We visited her there as much as we're allowed to. We loved her so much and my dad tough us to love her too. Her brain was sick...not her body. I love her and I raised her with my children. She needed to be raised. Why I don't know but, I did it for her, because I always loved her and I would do ANYTHING for her.

Peter I really feel for you. Our daughter was placed with us as a foster placement aged 15 months and adopted at 6 and 2 months. When she was about 10 or 11 I woke up one morning just knowing she was 'on loan' to us and on her 18th birthday her biological grandparents, who had become part of our family, passed on a letter from her biological mother and that started a horrendous few years until finally now we are totally estranged. I was 'used' to care for our grandson for most of his 9 years of life, and for that I am very grateful and I would give anything to havd her back in my life. She even denied I was her mother when I was in a shop with her and that hurt .e so much. I know as foster/adoptive parents we are supposed to be so happy when they reunite but what happens to us, who cares how we feel when our child goes off to someone who is really a stranger to them. I so hope you have a better outcome than I did.x

Very sad Almost ungrateful... But at least you did your best, this is what must people fear.

Unfortunately that's what happens in some cases adopted kids you raise to adulthood and then they move on with their life from adopted parents, and some of them to bio parents that literally didn't raise them, they weren't there for them glowing up when they needed some one when they wanted a parent at activities when they were sick who was there there adopted parents, but then the bio parents get to do the adult stuff just visit with the kids from time to time grandkids sorry you don't get to do that stuff, maybe you should ask what you did wrong that they don't want you in their life now, cuz it was nothing then why can't they have both adopted parents and bio parents in their life.

With such short notice, you handled it well. What Zay may not have understood at the time is that you also need time to process the reunion. Not that you didn’t want it to happen, but you also needed time to process what was happening, to go over your questions, to have time to even think of your questions, to reassure yourself that you raised him well, and time to get used to the idea of letting go. You’re such a rock for these kids. I think they forget that you’re human, too.

I have many mixed feelings. I don't know the situation as to why he's not with his mom. Mom is a nurse with a fiancé. Zay is a wonderful young man who seems to know what he wants to do as a career. And of course he's 18 now. I am thinking positive and praying for Zay. Peter has been such a perfect dad for him. I can't wait for an update. I'm a nervous wreck. And Peter is also. The little ones already miss him. Where was Anthony?

So true! She should be grateful & respectful enough to at least ask to speak with Peter first. Someone who has been caring for your child fantastically for 2 years. Zay is a complete new person from when he arrived at Peter's. Well done Peter. Zay, we love you so much and just in case you see this, please stay safe and don't rush things. Please, take Peter into confidence next time and don't spring a surprise like this on him next time. Do respect his feelings as your Dad. Just one night is not enough to tell your Dad you're travelling about 8 hours to see your Mum you haven't seen since you were 12/13 to spend a week. You're such a sweet boy and we all can see it. So please don't let Mum or someone else come in between you and your Beloved Dad Peter. Its ok to build back your relationship with your Mum but do it right & slowly. Sending prayers & loads of love to you all. 🙏💙💙💙💕🙏

Rest assured you'll always be in his heart and his thoughts as he grows and makes knew discoveries and live his life. You are dad and always will be.

This made me tear up. I could see that Zay has had something weighing on his mind for some time now. He's trying to figure out who he is and where he fits in with his bio family. Peter is lovingly guiding him to search for these answers and reassuring him that he always has a home to come back to and people that love and care for him. Zay knows this and feels safe testing the waters. Zay will do well in life knowing this. 💚

Peter you are a good person, this mother should have involved you, the disrespect that she has shown is inexcusable. She is a nurse, as a healthcare worker myself I am appalled at her approach, she gives others care but!! Nuff said.
