Want to hear something really heartbreaking? There is an elderly neighbor of ours who hasn't seen her only daughter in 30 years.

30 years ago the daughter married a divorced drunkard, child deserter and wife beater. (first wife) He continued drinking, beat the daughter regularly. One day he beat her so badly that he put her in the hospital.

The elderly lady begged her to leave him- and to make a long story short, the daughter told her to stay out of her life and from then on she was 'dead to her'.

That was 30 years ago- and they have not seen each other since. The daughter still lives with this monster in a city about 200 miles away.

True story. .

I was also confused by the ‘not given up for adoption’ thing. If he’s in his 50s and she says she has not seen him for ten years, then it’s not likely he was given up for adoption as a child.
