Seems like a nice story.
How crappy of her.
What a betrayal of his real parents who raised him.
“I just knew, financially, I wouldn’t be able to do it. And the other thing—I wanted him to have a mother and father, so I decided at that point it was best to put him up for adoption,” said Pressley.
Should’ve stuck with your original plan, Lady! He HAS Parents! He HAS a FAMILY.
Why do people that start out with the best of intentions turn selfish?
I’ll bet she voted for Slow Joe. *Rolleyes*
Don’t forget the Chinese hacked all these Dna databases and used them to help create their engineered, targeted biological weapons.
This current one is only a test.
The outcome was nice, but did I read correctly that this genetic test supplied the lady with the name of her son without his prior knowledge?
If that is what occured, a few minor changes may be in order. Perhaps the adopted child does not wish to be contacted, at least not at that time.
This is a good tool of investigation, absolutely, but either party should always have the right to say Yes or No to full identification.
As the wife of an adopted man, I can tell you that it’s something a lot of adoptees want and need. If I had given up a baby for adoption, which is often an honorable thing to do, I would have forever felt the loss. It is an act of love, to give up your own child for his own good, but many adoptees need closure. It took a long time for my husband to forgive his birth mother, but he was finally able to see that it wasn’t that he was unwanted, it was that she was a 16 year old kid who could not make a home for him, especially since her mother had tried to abort him and the father ran off and joined the army; she had no support. She, herself, was unable to have any children after that, adopting two children, years later, after she married.
For those of you who know who the rapper EMINEM is, he has a 19 y/o daughter who has told the press she is angry at him for not telling her that she was adopted.
This Gal has also recently declared herself as “Non-Binary”.
So there!
Seems like a nice story.
Cool story.. till I read the trolls in the comment section.
As an adoptee I can tell you that the need to know the truth is very real, no matter how grateful we may be for our adopted families. We are not trash, and the judgmental comments here from those who have never walked in our shoes are appalling.
Incidentally, not all adoptive families are saints.
Surprised they got back usable results:
