I am a birthmom and have recently been reunited with my birthdaughter so of course I wanted to watch this show. I love it. I can understand how people feel as far as doing it on tv but everyone signs off on it I’m sure and would not be televised if they didn’t want to. I think it’s great. I know some people are probably thinking why does everything have to be a reality show but I like it because it brings back happy memories and some sad but it’s also what I can relate to and I know other people have gone through what I have gone through 30 years ago. It also brings birthfamilies together. I think it’s great. I wouldn’t worry about getting counseling afterward, I’m sure everyone will be fine. I think people tend to read too much into things and want to make sure “real” things don’t happen to people. I hope this tv show continues….I can relate. Hopefully some people who would like to reunite with their birthfamilies will maybe get some help or contact the show to see how to go about it. It can be a wonderful thing for both parties, I’m sure not all are great but at least they know where they stand.

You wrote my thoughts on this TV show, I was so afraid of how they would show adoption as all happy and it’s the easy answer…it was a good show. They did show just how hard it can be on the firstparents, granted they only had an hour for the stories and the reunion. I do hope they all get help with the post-reunion. I have been reunited with my son who is 18, and also my oun bmom…it can be hard. Just wanted to say the show was not as bad as I thought it would be…

that’s done on the Locator which is on WEtv. Troy Dunn first located his mom’s birth family. There was one story were a girl in a foster home was taken out for possible RU that didn’t work out; she was put in another home and adopted by the first foster mom and she had such a connection. When they saw each other again, it was tear-jerking!!
