    I am loving this series. Truly appreciate seeing adoptees from other nations and their stories as well.

      I cannot hear a swedish accent at all and believe me I’m Swedish myself. She must have lived in Scotland for quite some time.

    And this is the problem with saying 'I am colour blind, I don't see colour.' Nope. See colour. See differences. Acknowledge differences. Celebrate those differences. When you don't see colour, you erase the others persons lived experiences, culture, etc. I'd see colour colour, see Asian, I see white I see Black, I see interracial, and I love it. For who human beings are so different, yet so the same. We all just want to be loved for who we are, for all that we are, including our colour, race, history, culture, etc.

    Siri has a beautiful accent!! It's hard that her family tried to deny her ethnicity, that's just strange. I love her style as well! But they didn't explain if she got to meet her bio mom?!
    P.S. You should link all the parts to this series in the description!

    its really sad how this series Only has 4.700 views. as most people probably won't understand adoptees. I myself is Korean adopted and I feel that I can relate to this series....

    • @San47di
      @San47di 7 років тому +4

      The low viewership here may be because this happens to be a Second posting of Dan's story. Remember, Dan himself posted his own experiences FIRST. NBC is a followup. :-)

    Shame on those parents for creating a negative image of Korea in this young woman's mind, just because they didn't take the time to understand that not all countries speak English! Traveling 101

    A really great series Dan. I see a lot of you in both your biological Father and Mother also your biological brother. I am so happy for you as this fills a great void in your life of who you are. Also your biological parents are so happy to know that you are well and doing well in life. It must have been agonizing for them to put you up for adoption. I suggest you learn Korean That was well done Dan congratulations

    I can understand almost every word that Siri says. I am pretty sure that Siri moved to Glasgow, Scotland from Sweden at a very young age after adopted by the Swedish family.

    This is an amazing series. I commend the parents who adopt and love the babies. But I do believe some how some way it’s important to acknowledge your child’s origin and culture. If that’s making sure they don’t forget the language of the place they originated from. Something that will connect them when they decide to go back. It just makes it easier for them. Allow them to keep that if you can. And that’s not a criticism. I just notice with the language barrier it makes it difficult for them to connect. But if they are allowed to retain the language of the country they are from it’s helpful to them. If you can do it.

      Her accent is definitely a Scottish accent and at 3:12 it says shes from Glasgow, guessing her family moved there from Sweden?

      There are also adoptees who were deported because their white savior parents neglected to get them naturalized. There are many complex stories and unfortunate outcomes.

      She said she is from Sweden but lives in Glasgow (I need to rewind it a few times in order to make it out what she said), so she has a very thick Scottish accent.
