The Locator

TaKhLakH · March 2009

Anyone seen this show? OMG! They had a marathon or something over the weekend and I cried all day!

The "Locator" locates lost family members and reunites people. There was one where this 16 yo mom had twin boys with a 41 yo man. He was abusive but she stuck with him till the boys were about 18 months. She finally left but couldn't take the boys because she wasn't old enough to get custody so she went and stayed at her dad's in Oregon till she could. She would go visit them and then one time she went there and they were gone! Moved. No phone call, nothing. Fast forward 20 YEARS! The Locator found the boys...in Puyallup WA!!! Crazy. Apparently the dad just GAVE them to a friend of a lady he worked with! (I'm still so confused by this. There was no formal adoption or anything. Is legal adoption really that new??) Anyway, they met their mom and I cried through the whole thing.

I watched that too!! Yeah sounded sorta sketchy how they came about adopting them but it was neat that they agreed to meet their mom...I was sorta worried they wouldn't because the adopted mom was so down on it!
