I always admire how they don't take advantage of someone's grief and let them know the hard news off camera and let them grieve before giving them any news.

Both the man and lady who run this show are so good at this because both were adopted and both found their birth parents. They are great.

Holy smokes. I’ve only seen two shows and they were the best most moving shows ever. The show is managed with such elegance. People are provided such a safe space to make it so raw and translucent. Very profound. The feelings and experience translate. Wow. Blows American shows away. It’s such a gift, this show. With purpose.

[@lang-ed3bk]

this story is very similar to another case on a show that is american. the reunion was absolutely beautiful, one of my favorites; i've rewatched that scene over and over. then i saw this story today, and the reunion reminded me of that one. i've also rewatched this one several times.

[@lala55419]

This woman’s sister in the pink is so sweet. I am so glad they met. They are like a perfect match.

[@rolandrayn4869]

Really heartbreaking for Martin & her mom 6 mths living homeless. Tears flowed freely watching this. But, i now rejoice that they get to meet each other. Thank God.

[@gabe-po9yi]

I felt so sorry for Flo, too. It was just her and her dad after her mom died when Flo was 7.5 years old, and she had no contact with anyone from her mother’s side. When her dad then later died, she was completely alone. How wonderful the two sisters found each other.

[@Juliemorgana]

Well, when that sister thought about it for less than 30 seconds, and then said, "She'll have us", that brought the tears. What a good person she is.

[@monicafedel3307]

I don’t get that some adoptees feel so rejected. I never did. I always figured she had her reasons. I’ve always felt blessed.

[@FigaroHey]

Did your parents help you feel that way, or was it just your personality and mindset? What made you think that way?

[@monicafedel3307]

@@FigaroHey I suppose it’s because I always felt loved by my parents. I had a brother who was also adopted. I never questioned that she must have had a valid reason for giving me up and was glad I wasn’t aborted. She was worried about me feeling bad about her. She did the best thing. I needed parents, she was single and no longer involved with the dad. When my parents got old, I was happy to be able to be there for them.

[@marcofreitas3844]

That show is freaking off the charts...whoever gives it a thumbs down has no heart.

[@novembrasheva6213]

Martin's adoptive parents are so lovely, big heart and very supportive. Despite of his "rejected feeling" by his biological mom, Martin shouldn't hurt his adoptive parents by leaving them just like that. Thankfully he came back and using his senses. You are so blessed and lucky Martin, many children around the world not as fortunate as you.

[@kathleenwildman9427]

I felt the same way. His poor parents I felt so protective of them.

[@meghangossett3091]

Why is it bad that he felt rejected? Just because he felt that way doesn't mean they didn't do a good job. It's just how he feels

[@gentleeyes]

It's a common feeling for adopted children and they seem understanding people. I'm sure they know it isn't about them. They love their adoptive son.

[@DeeSol28]

I didn’t really like Martin at all. Seemed ungrateful.

[@juleingordon6409]

It's easy for us to feel that way not being in his shoes...we all approach our circumstances differently...let's not judge.

Sad and strange the man's birth mother didn't want her identity known. I'm glad they found each other.

[@sonnetquinn5318]

It’s so healthy she was able to have her need for privacy respected AND still allow her story to be told and to reconnect with Martin. She is a survivor of a traumatic experience. We don’t get to choose what she needs.

I almost feel like with Martin with him feeling rejected by his birth mom that in his pain and confusion he, in a sense, has partially rejected his adoptive parents. Yes he’s grateful for them but still seems like at least at one point he rejected them as well

[@PartlySunny74]

Teens go thru identity issues anyway. It seems he got stuck in a negative thought pattern spiraling down his self esteem. We all need to be taught, or take a leap of faith and seek out help, to learn the skills of resilience.

[@maryrosenwasser1656]

I think people doesn't give enough credit to trauma in babies, at 7 months your heart breaks as well, he truly felt rejected because in his mind his mom just left him for no reason

This series brings tears to my eyes. I'm so happy for these family members finding each other. My parents and I went through years of anguish after my brother basically disowned us. My parents have both passed away now and although I made contact with him, he has his own family and I am not welcome. We were very close when we were growing up and I really miss him. I really miss having a sibling.

[@alidabotes6264]

[@mompofelski4191]

I love these reunions - it's like being a fly on the wall of such beautiful intimate joyous occasions. It is an honor to witness (even though they are somewhat staged) people connect and be so optimistic about building future relationships - moving forward since they cannot change the past. Just lovely. Thanks.

[@marywerner4327]

Unfortunately it does not always work out like that

[@Marcel_Audubon]

Martyn was sweet, I'm glad he found his completion - what a story! So many wonderful and patient adoptive parents on this show. Anne seemed to be linking her marriage with finding her mother in a very odd way that wasn't fair to her financé. Asking Flo to walk her down the aisle the same hour she met her was high volume. I am glad they found each other and hope Anne doesn't frighten Flo away. I feel they need each other.

[@blankblank7101]

The UK version is so much more respectful than the US adaptation

[@auntiedough2488]

Agreed. Much less drama.

[@PartlySunny74]

Let’s be nice, life is too short. Both are hosted by kind and sensitive people. The U.S. hosts were themselves adopted. Commercials disrupt the stories, but that’s an opportunity to get another box of tissues!

[@joyceanderson3165]

How's that?

[@Violet3017]

I disagree. The U.S. hosts are very respectful and kind. The only thing I wish the U.S. versions would add is the updates the U.K. stories have at the end.

[@robertacampbell1555]

As an adoptee myself, Martin's intro is so accurate. I have never pursued my biological roots until this past year.

[@trippin916]

38:28 "i wish i would have known you years ago. Do you know that? It would have been amazing." THat touched me so much. You could see how badly she wanted to go back in time and relive her childhood with her sister.

[@Kathleen5429]

Am I the only one that sees some heartbreak on Martin’s adoptive parents faces when he is talking about how he feels?

[@kulsoomahsan4440]

I think the heartbreak was for him that he had felt that rejection. And that he hadn't felt like he could talk about it and just left for a couple of years instead. And it seemed his parents had not realized until he finally said it, that rejection was what he was feeling as far as his feelings towards his birth mother. I think the mom especially wishes he had just asked to find his birth mom, she said she had information and had always been ready to give it to him if he asked for it but he didnt. Many moms adoptive or biological feel helpless and protective towards their kids as they watch their kids struggle with things that they can't help them with. I think that's where the parents felt heartbreak.... that they had been ready to help him but he hadn't been ready for it and suffered until he was ready.

[@pamelaarwoodelliott2723]

Ohhhh Sweety, I saw the same thing 😢

[@ruththinkingoutside.707]

When you love a child and they hurt, it’s the worst feeling ever that you can’t take it away or help.. My son is incredibly stubborn.. I felt every bit of his mom saying, “if you’d have come to me…” .. sigh.. sometimes they just HAVE to do it themselves.. even if you know much much better.. you have to let it play out and just be there to catch them in the end 😢 Considering how deeply he felt rejection despite the obvious love and support he has.. I’m sure she’s felt broke hearted lots of times.. I hope this finally helps set him free.. so he stops carrying around emotions that are misplaced and crippling..

[@alidabotes6264]

Yes, there was pain & confusion until he told them he wouldn't have changed them.

[@danamischlich4827]

I think his parents truly love him, and know he needs to do this.

[@josi4251]

Martin: "It's like going home to the home you never knew you had." So beautiful that he found his birth mum and so happy for them both!

My friend didn't seem to be concerned at all and downplayed it. I was wild wanting to know everything! My friend told me later she asked her parents for the complete lowdown!

[@malina1239]

I remember when I was 16 in 1990 I went to London with my friend. It was the first time I was in another country and somethings I saw really shocked me. I was there in mid December for Christmas shopping and it was pretty cold. I saw a young girl about my age,with a baby sitting in the stairs down to the underground begging for money. The tiny infant barely had clothes on , only a dirty nappy a hat and she had a thin blanked that half covered him and he was blue with cold. He didn’t even cry, just looked apathetic .. I had never seen a homeless person or anyone begging for money before . The memory is burned in my soul and I so wonder what happened with them both.

I've known a few cases of people reacting with a lot of anger towards their adoptive parents like the first case. I suppose it is somewhat a natural response to the feeling of rejection. Although the adoptive parents are in no way "guilty" of anything, least of all of rejecting the children, they have to pay a prize when they face their sons or daughters' drastic reactions.

How awful for this poor mother. There are good places now that would take her in w her baby. How poignant and tragic! She loved her baby.

[@Marcel_Audubon]

There were good places then, too! Sounds as if she didn't have the support of her family and perhaps wasn't savvy enough to figure out how to access "the system" (it would be a rare 15 year old who would be). This show isn't long enough to tell every detail of their stories so we don't know what went on between her and her parents. Also, they almost always gloss over who the father is and whether there is any communication with him as part of the search, although I expect there is but it's done off camera. Assume in Martyn's case the father was a other 15 year old. He may have been terrified and wanted nothing to do with the baby back then ... but as a middle aged man, he would have quite a different perspective on it. They shouldn't pass up the opportunity for the paternal introductions.

[@fromthegetgo4981]

I understand his adoptive parents were confused by his sudden disappearance, but statements like “if you had questions, you could have asked” kind of rubs me the wrong way. Adoptive parents MUST be proactive and make the initiative. They should have said “if you ever want to know, you can come to us.” Kids are so afraid of offending their parents, and assume that if it wasn’t a topic of conversation, there was a reason. Silence also speaks on implicit feelings. He responded to their silence on the background of his adoption with his own silence.

The other six were placed for adoption, all younger than me and my sister. We all have different fathers. My six siblings were all adopted by different families as well. She is a horrible, HORRIBLE woman! I have managed to find four of my six siblings so far. Two happy reunions, the other two are indifferent. I am still searching for the missing two.

Keep praying for peace in your life. And I pray someday you will experience the wonderful love a normal person has for their babies and children. I had an okay childhood, but by the grace of God my husband and I were good parents. And I got pregnant before marriage at seventeen, I had graduated from high school. And the minute my daughter was born it was amazing the love we had for her ! Now we have been married for forty six years ! Yeah, I am OLD . Blessings to you from California. 💐 💝

I am 59, adopted, and still not over this, even though I met my bio mum and 4 other siblings who were bought up together. No one will understand this ever. All my siblings on both sides, adopted and biological have rejected me and I still find myself alone
