Maybe I’m dense, but if his parents told him that he was adopted and he didn’t ask about his biological mother, it doesn’t seem like they were covering up anything but that they were waiting for him to get to the point where he wanted to know. Many children today are raised by their grandparents, some that are adopted by them and some that are fostered by them, but it doesn’t diminish the sense of family. Does it?
That was THE most bizarre and interesting story I have ever heard.
How did he have ”white privilege ” in college?? Really?? Do we have to insert political correctness in everything??
What an amazing story. God bless this wonderful mother!!! Thank you for sharing!
God. Can we not escape from trans world? For f sakes, Jesus ‘Mary. How about a story about how a guy rescues a girl from falling over a cliff or marrying the wrong guy or something...like naturally uplifting. Instead zombies and lost humans - everywhere.
Thank you for this. Exactly what I needed going into today. ❤️
Endlessly fascinating— what a great idea and I really appreciate that the host lets listeners share their stories in a safe place where others have similar experiences.
Keeps losing connection, all other podcasts working fine, don't know where the problem is coming from.
I hope that he has taken the time to really look into and understand this from his Mother's perspective. That he can forgive her and has a good relationship with her now. The many pics of her with her baby and child speak volumes of her love for him from day one.
I watched the documentary after listening to this episode and I was disappointed to see Steve blaming the victim which is his Mother. A young girl in the 60's pregnant unwed rejected and unsupported by the father of her baby. Simultaneously abused by her Mother and her Father's lack of protection. Just heartbreaking. Sounds like she was the scapegoat for her Mother's unhappiness. Steve has a right to feel let down, sad and confused but to blame Joannie is simply unfair and continuing the cycle.
What is the piece of music at the end and where can I find it?!
I am really confused, because I gave birth to 11 children and not one of them is remotely like me. They all have the same father and none of them are like him either. Not in mannerisms, preferences, values, or even appearance. Neither nature nor nurture seem to have affected my children. Yet this woman is so much like her birth mother, I don’t know how to explain it
