Mother and son really love each other--that she wore a blue dress and the blue shirt!! They're going to make it

[@valeriegood8427]

The Dad ran away bcos he knew hed be judged & blamed for his wrong doings. He obviously wanted peace. He knew he blew it but his pride probably made him want to walk away. Rather than feel like a failure he mightve wanted a fresh start. We've all got 20/20 vision in hindsight they say. To take a situation out of the context of the time & place & try to apply the way youve grown & learnt back to those times is futile. Her Dad was younger & knew less about life & his values have changed a bit. It seems over time you can heal. Its no good trying to figure it all out & over analyse the past. Start afresh as the evolved people youve all become.

5 minutes is a long time

[@christophertunusau3023]

Agreed.

Lol. I couldn't stare that long. Maybe I can do 2min. 🤷🏾‍♀️

I wouldn't get to 1 minute. 😂😂

I dont know but the two friends at the end, got me bawling when they looked at eachother.

Eduardo wasnt even crying lol his face was shaking with no tears 💀 meanwhile Hayley's bawling her eyeballs out

[@samnnamani]

He was so sorry and guilty, they are true friends

I can’t stop seeing Piers Morgan in Shelley. 😭

[@wildoceanappaloosawomangay2535]

Beautiful 💚

[@bakuretsu9187]

Pfff, I have not cried so much in years. Here on my own, in my little room. I realize how much I actually miss my dad. I haven't seen him in 8 years. I might try to contact him again...

[@sylvialin6453]

Did they planned to wear the same colour? lol Best is to reconcile before either one passed on Watching this makes me misses my only daughter very much. Ive not seen her for almost 8 yrs. Im a single mom. I believe in do whatever we can while we are still kicking and breathing. Regrets wont bring you joy or happiness.

[@Ashleyyhehe]

I think he chose that color subconsciously because he probably knows it’s his moms favorite color or something

[@jwillhhp]

Powerful!!!

[@sylvialin6453]

My suggestion is, that they get rid of the staircase. One day someone may miss their footing or tripped n fall. This show is addictive for me

[@r.r911]

Lol can you imagine someone tumbling down? Omg

If somebody abuses their children, they should not only lose their children, but be "fixed" to never have any more children.

[@shadowinversion]

Chinese/aussie accent, that's a first for me

[@monicaperez2843]

I am estranged from my siblings, cousins, aunts and uncles, but the reality is that they were never my family. I knew this from Day One. This is why I believe in giving up your young children without judgement. If you don't "click" with your child, especially from Day One, you should be able to give them up, the sooner, the better.

[@narco4164]

that is the most horrible take ive heard in my life. Giving up your young children?? do you hear youself

[@Donaldwpierce]

He got you a ranch and a life ,,,,,that is. Not an example of someone who didn’t handle stress!,

[@Donaldwpierce]

So his purpose was gone,,, and the nxthing was drink to pretend like that didn’t happen

[@MeadowDay]

I’ll never understand moving to another country and insisting on having the culture you left behind. Why ?.. just stay where you are

[@davidadausuel4537]

Exactly.

[@TheShadowMan.]

compassion and maybe a little understanding that your upbringing is different to another's, goes a long way towards not coming across as a bigot

[@valeriegood8427]

I don't know if that's a fair comment. Always put yrself in the others shoes. I'm Australian, if for some reason like work for instance meant I had to move to a foreign non Emglish speaking country like Vietnam or Spain, I'd do as much as possible to embrace their language & culture but I know I'd be asking where are the Aussie ex pats? I know I'd probably divide my time between the 2 cultures. .

[@ltlwlwl5057]

They move to a western country for the financial benefits for themselves..... not for the Beauty/Cultural experience of the Western country they chosen.

[@Francesca-ee7gd]

@@valeriegood8427 I'm what you can call an expat since I live in a different nation having married a man from here. And yes, your heart will forever be divided because you belong in both places. You learn the language, eat their food, embrace thier culture as much as possible but you'll never be one of them. You'll have a heart dividend in two homes. Beautiful and daunting at times, also complicated when you have kids.

[@Donaldwpierce]

That’s a man who was not appreciated

If Eduardo has dark skin, then............

Not every male wants to be a father

[@qazwsx014jsbd8]

you mean shelly and mick? then he shouldn't have had 3 children lol. not every male deserves to be a father is what i would say, although as of where i am in the video it doesn't seem like he fits in that category really. idk the specifics but he seemed like a decent dad before he left (im at just before they look each other in the eyes) rather than abusive. i do hope they can rekindle and stay in each others' lives though now that they're together again.
