I was adopted and found my birth father and half siblings. It didnt go well. They didnt want nothing to do with me. Im 61yrs old and realize they will be nothing to me but strangers. Yeah, I still wonder why sometimes and my mother never told me the truth. She passed away years ago. So, I came to realize my adopted Father was my true Father. May he R.I.P.
Just because someone is a "sperm donor " or they are, it doesn't make them your father. I'm not adopted, but my abusive dad never wanted kids. In fact, he saw, and yes, told us we[ my two sisters and I]wrecked his plans/life and that "I wish you were never born." to us/my sisters. Fatherhood is SO MUCH MORE than the giving 23 Chromosomes whether one is adopted or not. I'm glad you had a dad l, who valued and appreciated you though, eventhough he adopted you. God Bless!
I am so sorry that your relatives didn’t see how much value you have. I’m 62 yrs and would be honored to be adopted as your sister. All of you. Bless you all.
As a parent of 2 sons I cannot fathom these absent selfish parents just carrying on with their own lives not giving a second thought to the children they brought into the world.
Certainly something I can never understand either. However, there are parents out there that once they separate for whatever reason, one parent will do anything and everything to prevent the other parent having a meaningful or any kind of relationship with the children of the relationship. I know a couple whose relationship ended and the mother did everything possible to keep the children from seeing their father. Now twenty two years after the divorce, one daughter is getting married but does not want her father to walk her down the isle. The youngest son does not want a relationship with his father either all the while the father has done everything possible to try to build relationships with each of his three children.
You are so accurate, my sons did see their father occasionally but he never contributed a penny or gave them emotional support or unconditional love . I stayed silent and encouraged a relashionship with him . Now they are grown men who are amazing , stable and fantastic sons . They are in charge of their feelings for him, not me . They almost certainly remember but have forgiven him for the emptiness whilst growing up . I am a very proud mother .
Yes I was very surprised in the last one where the grandmother told her son not to worry about his daughter just let her come looking for the father when the time is right .. What the heck ? ... so now that girl and her Dad lost all those years together . Just weird that they made no effort to look for the girl 😢. And with Alan that was strange that his mother couldn't cope with him ... ? I don't know if it meant she had some kind of depression or just didn't want to be a mom back then or if she was maybe some kind of an addict ... ?
I know I'm adopted and I've met my birth parents and I have no feelings towards them and dont want anything to do with them. Long story short, they dont want anything to do with me and never have. God bless to all these people trying to find their birth parents xx
Thank goodness you were adopted. Things could have been worse living with someone who has no love for you. Toxic is toxic no matter who it is. They don't deserve you.
There are days I wish I never knew my biological father cause of what my sister told me and figured out the reason why I am the way I am and I'm glad that I don't remember what happened to me from 12 years old and younger cause I was abused physically verbally mentally and sexually
@@Trish0305 Hello dear ☀️ I'm very sorry all that happened to you. I'm amazed that you don't remember anything that happened before you were 12 (but that's a good thing in this case...). Try to focus on living in the present moment. Life is short although it doesn't seem so while we're young. I'm 69 and now I'm sorry to have wasted so many years.. I didn't have today's wisdom and spiritual evolution. I hope you can find peace and live a happy life. Take care ❤️
Good grief, I’m a 57 yr old woman bawling like a baby !!!! I’m so happy for all of these people, whatever the reason, good, bad or otherwise, they all seem to have the maturity to put the past behind them and forgive, they all need each other !!!
My son's father went 33 years without seeing him (last seen as an infant). I tried to get him to agree to a meeting when my son turned 18. He agreed and then reneged. After that i told my son my advice was to forget about him, but he said he had some questions, and travelled to his home town and had a one-hour meeting. After that his father said he would like to stay in touch, but my son is not planning to do so. I don't really feel you should forgive people their decisions if they have been selfish and heartless.
I LOVE how this show shows one story in full, and then the next. It drives me crazy when I watch many that have 3 going at once and keeps going back and forth. I actually turn them off and quit watching because those kind are annoying. THANK YOU.
Alan's mum claiming she has no memory of a fight between Alan's mums boyfriend & Alans dad is convenient fabrication so as not to for her to look bad. Making excuses! Then to just disappear from his life like that! It's unfathomable!
I agree, seemed like she just pretened she could not remember.. I Mean if she was good friends with the father, why would she stop seeing her Child 🤷♀️
I don't agree! My 'father' left when I was 1. I never missed him cause I didn't know him. He was a stranger to me. My Mom, Grandparents, extended family provided me with more than enough love and support when I was growing up. I don't understand how people miss their biologicals IF they have a wonderful parent or family in their life! Aside from knowing medical history, who would want to beg someone to come back after that person 8/10 times stayed away for reasons you'll never really know the truth about.
Am I the only one that finds the parents’ reasons (excuses) for just disappearing from their children’s lives entirely lacking authenticity in the extreme? That last one, her mother has a lot of explaining to do.
I don’t understand how some parents can intentionally lose contact with their child, as if it is just an arbitrary relationship. I found Ted and the woman in Wales to be so cold … especially Ted.
@@SKN1763will I have a situation with one of my children in my heart breaks every day and I reach out to her everyday, but she's not having anything to do with our family right now, she's very immature self-centered in money hungry and disappointed in me cuz I don't have money anymore, she never lacked for love are anything in her life and my two other kids are very disturbed by her ignoring us all and she is a flight attendant and she didn't even come home for her Grandpa's funeral and she fly's to bala all over the world and I know that I was a wonderful mother to her, I had my children so involved in so many activities and family things and tons of friends that she grew up with and none of us hear anything from her and it's HEARTBREAKING!!!!! But I finally just have put it in the Lord's hands because I have beautiful children who love me and GOD will take care of it and hopefully she will come back to us because we love and miss her so much!!!! But we don't know what has happened in these people's lives spouses could have lied....😢 so many circumstances
Not everyone is equipped to be a GOOD parent. Everyone becomes a parent when they have a child. One learns and develops skills along the way, some people are too stunted and can only learn a little and lack the desire to do so
My mother gave me up to my dad when I was a toddler haven’t seen her since I’m now 49 she had 3 other kids made me feel like I wasn’t good enough to be loved especially when my dad took his own life I was left alone thanks mum.!!!
Im sorry to hear about your hardships in life. What were you told were her reasons? I think you prob need to hear her side of the story. Im sure she would have tried to help you if she knew that your father would/had unalive himself.
After watching a few of these shows it makes me realize that as adults we can cause so much pain for children, So glad I got married and then had children. Some of these stories have so much pain and feelings of rejection for a no of years. Maryanne broke my heart
You can be married and still have a parent walk out and not have anything to do with their kids. Heck theirs cases of people who go “missing” only to be found years later and admit they didn’t want their spouse or kids anymore. Being married has nothing to do with it, some people are just scum bags, don’t make it like just because some people aren’t married when they have kids is the only reason they disappear on their kids because marriage means nothing to some people.
I wrote every day for about a month, never heard anything. So you didn't know where the mom was raised? You called? You mailed? If mailed no excuse for not getting in a vehicle and finding him. I find most of the parents excuses are lame. Get off their lazy backsides and gind your child. If you can't do that, your excuses of I tried, but.... are lame, admit the truth, you just couldn't be bothered.
They’re being confronted with a camera, which I can only imagine is difficult at best, and no matter what, there must be a long sorted history there. They only owe their children an explanation, not us or anyone else
It's not always case. We weren't there. My brother was not allowed to see his child by the mother, she refused. He was a good dad. They were both 18 when they met. When his son grew up he met his dad, my brother. He went back and told his sister " mom lied all these years". I believe the guy. He wouldn't have said that on Wheel of Fortune all those years later, if he hadn't been in his heart. Dad got shafted by mom.
These parents.should be praying to God for forgiveness... Its all their faults. When u r a parent ...U R THE PARENT! KEEP TRACK OF YPUR KIDS NO MATTER WHAT!!!
I’ve only gotten through the first one so far… my goodness! His little girl just grinning from ear to ear watching her dad hug his dad. ❤ I must go drink some water to refuel the tear factory.
I've seen many of these documentaries and although I know my parents very well, I can imagine how it must feel to be in such a situation. Mary An in particular touched me when she finally met her father. Godspeed!
That last reunion got me!! I can very much relate with her. I was isolated away from my mom but reunited with her 25 years ago. She passed away in September with all her kids by her side
This was a very beautiful and touching video of three families who lives were changed forever. Especially was it so as each had a wonderful ending in positive outcomes of family ties.❤. I’m glad they all found their long lost loved ones and have a chance to continue getting to know each other from here on. 😊. Concerning the young lady who never had much chance to know her dad, I can somewhat relate. However, she has seen her dad, but I have never met mine. I was told by my mom that I’m the spitting image of him. I don’t know if one day I see him, but I’m thankful my mom, two brothers and her relatives love me. Most important of all GOD LOVES me.❤ Blessings - Reklamation Ministries 😊
The last one with the daughter crying a lot especially when she hugged her father it was so difficult not to cry. In some ways, I relate to her, but sadly I haven’t heard from him for decades. I met him when I was 24 for the first time. Then after a couple years nothing. I’ve wrote letters and nothing. I’m 44 now so I just accept that I will never see him again nor does he want to see me again.
Thankfully I was raised with my siblings by 2 loving parents, but I have seen the pain and heartache not knowing your parents can do to your life. I pray for my friend that one day she will hear something of her mother, she knows her father has passed away.
I wish I could find my biological father, as well as my stepfather. I would like to know if I have any brothers or sisters. My only known brother passed away. On her death bed, my late Mother asked me to tell my stepfather something. I would like to honor her request.
It often goes well at first....but it gets harder to build a lasting relationship when the parents don't take any personal responsibility and only offer confusing lame excuses. In the end, a lot of the time you lose them all over again.😢
Beautiful…repent for your wrongdoing, Dad and start a new journey..better journey with your son and his( now yours) family. We all make mistakes, especially in our youth, we must forgive our child self and learn from those mistakes! God bless! 🙏❤️
I have no idea who my father's family is. He was not willing to talk about his circumstances in detail for me to put in a timeline. I know a few stories. All I know now is that he was born in Austin, TX and lived in Plainview, TX. THEN he changed his last name when he married my mother, at least that's what I think. No one ever talked about it. I know why he picked the name, but did he do it legally? Did my parents register their marriage in 1959? I need help finding more information, and not many family members are alive anymore. I love my parents and respected them beyond belief. To know more about them is what I and my brothers could really use to feel closer to them. Thanks.
My father has at least two daughters he never met. We found out about them when he went to jail. They are better off never knowing anything about him. If they grew up with horrible parents, it will just make it worse and if they grew up with lovely parents it may destroy them.
Another tear jerker episode. I hope its not making me feel quilty after listening to this heartbreaking story of disappearing mother or father knowing I grew up married n have kids with both bio parents sacrificing their life for us to be happy❤😢😢
When my mothernpassed, my father told me that before they met my mother was an unmarried mother to a son. He had been adopted out when they married. It was a different world in 1940's.I found out about my brother.on the Friday and from not even knowing he existed to meeting him 3 days later. Unfortunately he didn't want to stay in contact but that was ok. I wish things had been different but my mum's rejection hurt him deeply
I just don't understand how these men can walk out of their children's lives and forget about them. It's unreal he went to his father's grave to talk to him about the son he abandoned. So dude had his father in his life, smh!
Don't believe his father said I'll get the wetsuits for my son Wheel of Fortune doesn't offer things like that. Your prizes are surprises. Maybe he saw him on The Price is Right. I looked and looked for the Wheel of Fortune episode in this video but they didn't play the recording of his father. If it was actually The Price is Right and not Wheel of Fortune that's a big mistake especially when you make it your title
Poor marianne, so much pain, she really loves her daddy, it seems he’s a mess, he won’t downhill after parted from her, I think she’s gone bring him back to be a normal man again, kids can bring miracles to the life of their parents
Oh Clo, I can’t imagine how you feel. It’s had to have been so difficult for you. I know everyone probably says this, but I truly hope and pray that you find her. I have 2 beautiful sisters that I am so proud of. We’re unfortunately not close but I wish we were. It’s such an important part of our lives. Siblings are the best and I want you to have the “sister bond” you’re in search of💖

Love how he took off his cap on meeting his dad. Respectful guy.
Aw
It's crazy that " adults" expect kids to do the work in keeping up with/finding their whereabouts.
It is a lack of real caring .
in adoption they have to wait for child to search. In cases like this, yes I do wonder why parents don't go search for kids. Good grief.
Yes I was very surprised in the last one where the grandmother told her son not to worry about his daughter just let her come looking for the father when the time is right ..
What the heck ? ... so now that girl and her Dad lost all those years together .

When the mom said “oh, I’m horrible”

I wish I could find my biological father, as well as my stepfather. I would like to know if I have any brothers or sisters. My only known brother passed away. On her death bed, my late Mother asked me to tell my stepfather something. I would like to honor her request.
Have you tried genetic match dna? Sometimes you can find people through distant relations
@@xerces27 The technology IS really getting good with that. Be careful, you may not like the family you find right.
Sadly the happy ending isn't always the case.
It often goes well at first....but it gets harder to build a lasting relationship when the parents don't take any personal responsibility and only offer confusing lame excuses. In the end, a lot of the time you lose them all over again.😢
Brenda is a sweetheart. I feel like she may have arrested development though. I think she is very young in the mind
Mary Ann is the spitting image of her Auntie 🥰
Marianne looks like her grandmother. Good stories!
Yes!!! And her aunties!
Beautiful…repent for your wrongdoing, Dad and start a new journey..better journey with your son and his( now yours) family.
We all make mistakes, especially in our youth, we must forgive our child self and learn from those mistakes!
God bless! 🙏❤️
Allen mother is so sweet
If you need a good cry watch these stories 😢
I’m quite surprised they come to meet him. This show is awesome. Poor Alana, mom was permiscuous. She’s changed I believe.
I have no idea who my father's family is. He was not willing to talk about his circumstances in detail for me to put in a timeline. I know a few stories. All I know now is that he was born in Austin, TX and lived in Plainview, TX. THEN he changed his last name when he married my mother, at least that's what I think. No one ever talked about it. I know why he picked the name, but did he do it legally? Did my parents register their marriage in 1959? I need help finding more information, and not many family members are alive anymore. I love my parents and respected them beyond belief. To know more about them is what I and my brothers could really use to feel closer to them. Thanks.
Love this UA-cam channel 😊
He wrote letters for a month and gave up.
damn it i binged watched all of these reunion and everytime im crying its amazing!
My father has at least two daughters he never met. We found out about them when he went to jail. They are better off never knowing anything about him. If they grew up with horrible parents, it will just make it worse and if they grew up with lovely parents it may destroy them.
Great episode
I hate, totally hate, shows like these... why? Because this made me bawl.... 😢😢😢
Alans mother seems like a real piece of work.
1st story. Wow! Granddaughter looks just like her grandad
Another tear jerker episode. I hope its not making me feel quilty after listening to this heartbreaking story of disappearing mother or father knowing I grew up married n have kids with both bio parents sacrificing their life for us to be happy❤😢😢
The last story really got me! 😍😭
I do cry while watching,im from philippines♥️♥️♥️
wish i could hug my dad once more :(
As a woman who couldn't have children through a tumour, it angers me that these people take years to find their children.
I am weeping
When my mothernpassed, my father told me that before they met my mother was an unmarried mother to a son. He had been adopted out when they married. It was a different world in 1940's.I found out about my brother.on the Friday and from not even knowing he existed to meeting him 3 days later. Unfortunately he didn't want to stay in contact but that was ok. I wish things had been different but my mum's rejection hurt him deeply
Sweet Ted.
I just don't understand how these men can walk out of their children's lives and forget about them. It's unreal he went to his father's grave to talk to him about the son he abandoned. So dude had his father in his life, smh!
Don't believe his father said I'll get the wetsuits for my son Wheel of Fortune doesn't offer things like that. Your prizes are surprises. Maybe he saw him on The Price is Right. I looked and looked for the Wheel of Fortune episode in this video but they didn't play the recording of his father. If it was actually The Price is Right and not Wheel of Fortune that's a big mistake especially when you make it your title
On the older version of Wheel of Fortune the winner of each round would select prizes with their winnings.
Amazing ❤ ...
I enjoy these shows. 🎉🎉
Wow they are really looking alike ❤❤teary eyed
Why theses kids suffer from growing up with out a parent is beyond me all these years.
AMEN 💯‼️
Poor marianne, so much pain, she really loves her daddy, it seems he’s a mess, he won’t downhill after parted from her, I think she’s gone bring him back to be a normal man again, kids can bring miracles to the life of their parents
im not stop crying
God has a plan 💕🦋💕🦋
I’m trying to find my sister! I’m from the UK she is from Germany. She’s called Elaine and she’s 43.
I hope and pray that you find her. ♥️
@@susie2366 Thank you 🙏🏻
Oh Clo, I can’t imagine how you feel. It’s had to have been so difficult for you. I know everyone probably says this, but I truly hope and pray that you find her. I have 2 beautiful sisters that I am so proud of. We’re unfortunately not close but I wish we were. It’s such an important part of our lives. Siblings are the best and I want you to have the “sister bond” you’re in search of💖
@@stephanieann1213 Thank you so much for your kind words ❤️ Cherish your sisters send them a message and ask to meet up! One day hopefully I’ll find mine 👯♀️
If you try genetic testing you might find relatives who could help you.
