My mom said kids don't care about skin color, they care about being loved. How very true
Won't the kids be confused
@@aussies_are_white0057 Not if they have a diverse social group. My sister adopted my niece and they have done a lot to make sure she understands her birth countries language, history and culture.
Carolina Girl idk but a lot of people in Australia would feel uncomfortable seeing that kid with him.
Hmmm...why would that be?
@@aussies_are_white0057 Then that is a sad. A hard working man who was saved himself has in turn saved a child (children). If these people’s issues are rooted in racism or something sicker which I won’t mention out of respect for Peter and Anthony then those people need to address their OWN issues. But then your user name makes me wonder if these “people” are really you.
How could adoptive parents abandon a kid after 7 years? Heartless 😡
Pugzli Pigeon 😢😢😢 I don't believe too
Or at all!
That's evil!
Actually it's even worse, since it was after 9 years. (11-2=9) I can't imagine what kind of horrible people would abandon a kid.
It was all about the money/allowances that was being provided by the government to the foster kids... yeah, some people are absolute shite.
people who adopt and then abandon kids should be prosecuted.
...to the fullest extent of the law . It is a demonic act . 😡😡
unless they were abusive and were only using them for the money they'd bring in sometimes i wish people like that would abandon the kids they are abusing but yes you are right! still they at least took him to a hospital.

You don’t make money on a child that you adopt. That child then becomes your child, and you’re responsible for all of their needs. I was adopted at 4 months old. My parents are now 85 & 88. I’m very curious as to WHY the adoptive parents abandoned Anthony?? If it was that they just didn’t want the responsibility anymore...then they should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law!
Seriously. It's a disgusting thing to do.
Well, that does seem harsh to abandon this boy… But we cannot judge I don’t think. That is for someone else to do. I’m just glad that Peter was there, available for him…
That broke my heart when he said Anthony asked if he can call him ďad just after meeting him. He wanted somewhere where he can feel safe and someone to trust 😥. Thank God he is his dad now.🙏
Its funny how the child already knew from the first night.....
They were both looking for the same thing....a good family ❤️ (edit, inserted the word good 🥰)
😭😭😭
Yes I'm crying this is a heartwarming story
💕❤️💕
I have to admit that I clicked on this because that man is absolutely beautiful. Now that I'm watching it I realized what a beautiful human being he is. God bless him and God bless his son
When he said... “I’m soo single...” and looked at Anthony with the side eye! Lol!
Inside and out 😍
hahaha
Wow....perfectly said ❤
How "beautiful" is a man who bypassed all those in the deep ditchest of poverty and chose Anathony! There would be no question about his empathy for Anthony, if he had seen it fit to adopt one of those that bear his own semblance. I am almost certain that he saw them, before he saw him.
His first adoptive "parents" did him a favor by leaving him. They didn't deserve him and now he has a real parent to love and cherish him
What a nice story. This man will raise another good man, just like himself.
Very true!
It takes a man to be a father! 😁
What a loving and amazing guy.

🙏🏾❤🙏🏾❤
Harry Helmut was the brother of Winky Helmut who later changed his name to Helmut Winkey while Harry changed his name to Helmut Hood
Anthony looks like a happy teenager. A loving home is what every child deserves. ❤
It was traumatic for Anthony to be adopted at the age of 4 then being abandoned at the age of 11. Emotional trauma is more hard to mend than physical.
Beautiful story, me and my twin brother were adopted from birth- that was over 62 years ago!
55 years for me! My parents are 85 & 88... God bless them! 💖
God bless you guys!💓💓
My daughter has twins - my precious miracles. Taking on two infants is a lot of work. Bless you mom & dad!👶🏼👶🏼
Am I the only one noticing dad is friggin gorgeous? He's got a definite Idris Alba look to him. And an accent, too, oh my goodness. If I were single....Oh and the story is great,too. I'm very happy Anthony has his family now. God is good. I hope HE brings a great mom into this family who just melts right in. ♥️♥️♥️
@AfricanQueen Queen of Africa Haha no I think I made an accurate assessment don’t you? I’m just obsessed with everyone finding love so I thought I’d sell him a little. 😄
Yes, Peter, the dad, is an amazingly good looking man. Plus he has fantastic facial expressions. You cannot miss the beauty in his soul.
No. You are not the only one noticing! 😉
Very handsome man and what an engaging smile. He has a generous, kind heart which adds to his looks, inside and out.
I think it's his inner beauty that shines thru. You can see kindness, and love (in general to living beings)... and his willingness to help those unfortunate. That what's make him look handsome.
I also had adopted a daughter through foster care at the age of 13 years old.
may God always bless your family ma'am
JESUS bless you Joy! I want to become a foster mother and GOD willing that will lead to adopting a child or two or three. Whatever GOD has planned. 🙏🌹😊 JESUS loves you and your family!
You’re a wonderful human
Bless u! that’s beautiful- continued favor to you always.
Great news sis... blessings to you... people say teenagers are the worst but at that age they need us the most
Just look at those two.
They look like father and son.
No wonder they were meant for each other. ❤️
Adopting an older child is not an easy choice but if does work out its amazing!!!!
An adoptee becoming an adoptive parent, is really paying it forward.
It only takes one person to make a difference. In this world.
Hi, I hope so. I appreciate. Thanks.
Bless you. I got a baby at 18 months and he is now 21... Also adopted in Africa
He will always be your baby boy💓🙏
Thanks constance may God bless you more, n yes you guys have helped us alot
Africa is not a country 🙄
@@somina4003 South Africa... Excuse the error 😂 😂
@@somina4003 who cares?? Stop finding any way to be rude...
Anthony is such a handsome man, not to mention his inner beautiful self. I hope he finds himself a wonderful soulmate.
Since I was a child I wanted to be an adult to adopt. I'm hoping I can still manifest this dream.
As a child of adoption I BEG YOU sign up for adult groups of adoptees and understand just what you are taking on and what the future could look like. People always see babies and kids that need just love, but once you hear from us adult adoptees you’ll understand love purely isn’t all it takes.
I will pray you are able to achieve this dream!
I’ll tell you what was so important for me as an adopted child, (@ 4 months old)...
1: I don’t remember not knowing I was adopted. My parents had a book to read me as a child that explained things in a simple way.
2: I was never introduced to people as their “adopted daughter,” (my brother is biological). This was super important. As soon as they held me, I was theirs 💯.
3: I was allowed to ask questions at any time and not made to feel badly about it.
4: My dad always told me that I’d grown in another’s belly, but that God had written in The Book of Life, that I was meant to be theirs. 💖
*theres a lot more... but.. I not trying to write a book... lolz..*
Things that were difficult;
1: It was a closed adoption. I cannot find out who my biological parents are without going to court. If I’d had just one photo of them growing up, that would have been enough.
2: My ethnic background wasn’t shared with me until I was pregnant with my first son at 22. I don’t think my mom remembered what exactly was in the letter from the agency, besides health facts. But, I finally found out that I’m Irish & English. That was important to me.
So if you do adopt, a few things to consider. I hope your dream comes true! If handled right, it’s an amazing blessing! 🌈☀️
You will ✨✨✨✨
I a black man with 3 sons and my wife is currently pregnant and guess what from a kid I always wanted to adopt to put a smile on a poor kids face, I'm still gonna do it I promise some day when I'm finally settled 😭😭😭 wish I could have done it earlier: life just caught me off guard with such a big family loll
How could anyone abandon such a beautiful child after adopting him? It's heartbreaking. Bless this man for taking him and being a real father.
Ignoring all the noise and negativity out there; this is a true human story 🥰
I loved that the kid is so blunt about his dad not marrying anyone. LOL. Like any kid who doesn't like change. He seems already happy and he doesn't want anyone who might disrupt that.
Can u blame the kid? He already had unstable start in life
That’s true, because he thinks that once dad gets married he won’t be able to get that same love and attention anymore,so he would rather them to stay the same way, but you never know, him getting a partner, maybe things will be even better for Anthony because he would get more love from both of them. This is a beautiful story. Wish you all good luck.
@@dellriat9026 I think Anthony looks happy satisfied in present status , infact he is thinking to adopt more
His has got his priority very clear
Bless this man for his kindness and being sincere. He saved one soul for this world. One soul that can make a difference in this world.
This puts a huge smile on my face , am from Uganda. Am sorry Peter you had a terrible childhood, but all is well that ends well. Blessings to you and your family!
Me too Dee. Am from Uganda.😁
Am so glad he is from Uganda,may God bless you peter abundantly
Nice comment.
The rejection this child dealt with is devastating to hear. God bless you, Peter and Anthony. ❤️
That kid looks so mannerly and humble . I wish he grows up to be an inspiration in the community because sometimes out of a bad situation there is always a good outcome.
If only we were all lucky enough to have a dad like peter!
Very emotional story with a happy ending. Both father and son look like such good people.
A good person is not made of color, it's made by heart. We all have hearts.
Peter was born to be a dad. Simple as that. And what is meant to be, will be. May God always bless this family!
Mr. Mutabaazi your doing a really good job. Much love from Uganda 🇺🇬
Kind man, lucky family!
Mutabazi you inspire me. My dream to adopt, one day I will
As a child of adoption I BEG YOU sign up for adult groups of adoptees and understand just what you are taking on and what the future could look like. People always see babies and kids that need just love, but once you hear from us adult adoptees you’ll understand love purely isn’t all it takes.
“At Least One” - book and movie title
Yes, I agree wholeheartedly ❤️
Yuuuuup 👍🏼🦋🦋🦋
Someone get this man an agent!
Amazing
PETER IS FIIINE
I agree
Yes he is sis!! He is fyyyynee!!
This story is a real inspiration of what it means to be told you're not garbage, you're not unwanted, you're not a victim, and that you're a kind soul with a lot to give.
My heart melts... God bless ur 🙏🙏🙏🙏... Love from Nigeria 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
I wish Nigerians had bigger hearts. So many kids needing adoption, but the society isn't as used to that
Peter...God bless you. Anthony, you will be blessed.
Anthony isn’t having it!! And Peter is like bring’em on!!! I pray God blesses them both.
Am merab from uganda/East-Africa too,i adopted my son when he was 2weeks in my gone best friend's womb....now his 2years and months .
May God bless you my fellow UGANDAN bro (wangaala)
Simply amazing man who gave back from the kindness shown to him.
Peter you are an amazing human 🌷🌺🙏🙏🤲
Am from Ghana 🇬🇭 I love this story ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Beautiful story am so glad that he got adopted , wish them nothing but the Best ❤️❤️🙏🏽 God Bless , & the dog is so cute ❤️❤️
I love the shirts 1 and 2.
This man is the whole package and then some . What a beautiful family ; dad and son both . This is truly what “ family “ means .
I have 2 adopted sister under similar circumstances. Bless this man. Currently becoming a foster myself. ❤
God bless you so much
😭😭💖💖💖
I love Ugandans, they really have a big heart.
I love this man, can he adopt me to be the Nana.
Or the wife lol 😂
Those adoptive parents that abandoned that precious child will face some serious Karma.
They didn't have to abandon him like that.
Dad, you are wonderful, and I pray God continues to pour out blessings on you and your son!!
Beautiful story.
This is just confirmed what I already knew. That is is so rewarding to adopt. I am currently on that path. I think I have found my child. I need to wait and see if the other side are happy with me. Fingers crossed!
Good Luck!!! Hope it works out for you :)
Good luck
This man is straight out of heaven. I know he is one of God's angels. He has a huge heart. And the children who comes in his home threw foster care are soo lucky.
I wish some one wealthy would buy or build him a 6 or 8 bedroom house. So when a larger family of children go into foster care he could take the whole group.
He even gave up his room and slept on the floor recently. So he could take in 2 children out of 4 who were in a emergency situation. They were babies. What a man. He couldn't take the who group because he didn't have room. And the "angel man", was upset and worried about their older siblings who he didn't have room for.
You know....you hear these stories where the foster care parents only did it for the money. And they didn't really care for the kids. This wonderful man does it from the ❤ heart. He knows what it means to have a difficult childhood. He got his 1st pair of shoes when he was 16. This angel man has won a place in my heart.
The father and adopted boy are amazing!
that's wassup 😎👍🏾 every kid needs a loving and safe home MY RESPECT TO YOU SIR!!!
Well, one day the son will be 8 feet tall and the father??? Smiles and hugs from Brazil.
The picture with Mutabazi 1 and Mutabazi 2 💛💛💛
That is so beautiful. Can I be the mum to cook?!!
Showing parental love to a child who has been abandoned by their bio parents is the best gift you can give
This is such an astounding act of love and kindness. God Bless this family
Am also from Uganda.great job Mr Mutabazi.lots of love from Uganda
I think I fell in love with two men today. If you ever get to Canada, or at least my part of it, I'd be happy to host you.
What a cool guy. These are the people who SHOULD have children
It is so important to help children whenever we can so they become great citizens😍
how can his adoptive parents just abandon this gorgeous and loving kid??
This kind of positivity is needed to tackle the darkness :)
what a beautiful foster father.
That's digraceful that his adoptive parents abandoned him, but that just means that he was mean to be with you Peter.💜💜
I’m sure someone has snagged Peter (and Anthony) but wowzie! What a wonderful man! ❤️❤️❤️ abundance of blessings
What a beautiful story! Congratulations to you both! Anthony doesn’t want his dad to marry but I think it would be pretty funny if several years down the road we see another video of Anthony’s wedding!
God bless you dad and son may your tribe increase!
Very handsome man, and loving. God bless them.
What horrible people his first set of adoptive parents were . They don't deserve this boy at all .
My thoughts. That was pure evil, treated him like a garage, they could be disposed when then have had enough. Shame on them!
Amazing dad. Cool son.
God shines down on you Peter. Your attitude and graciousness is overwhelming and such a lesson to teach others about humanity. Continued love and happiness for you and your family.
So happy to see father and son happy together !! God keep them together forever .
What a wonderful family they are. 💕 such love!!
Anthony is so feeling comfortable around his dad. God bless Peter and Anthony.
This is heart felt. Wonderful, inspiring story. So happy for u both xo God Bless you!!!
I was adopted at 4 months old. I cannot imagine having my adopted family abandon me after 7 years together?? I hope those people were brought to justice for abandonment!!
Peter’s face just glows with a beautiful aura! This man is so special... he opens my heart just listening to him speak! God bless you sir, for paying it forward!! Anthony, I’m beyond happy for you young man! Your difficult journey brought you to the exact place you were meant to be! Wishing you both all good things! ✨🌈☀️✨
How absolutely wonderful is this story! Beautiful!
What a beautiful man.He has a pure soul.
This guy’s positive energy and just ENERGY are inspiring to me on days when I struggle with all my parental responsibilities. He’s worth a follow on UA-cam. How is he single? Great guy.
Such a beautiful story. Glad they have each other.
Wow. What a gorgeous man, inside and out. Such a great story. Blessings to both of them and their dog too! ❤️❤️
You are a wonderful man to have fostered that boy and given him a beautiful home thank you for being such a good person may God bless you 🤗🥰
I hope to adopt when I’m older
Love, Love, LOVE this story!
This is truly inspirational!!
The true definition of a FATHER.
What a beautiful father. So amazing. The American family adopted him and then he adopted the young man. So beautiful. 😍😍😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
