1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:05,080 Speaker 1: I'm taking my adopted daughter overseas, no matter how hard 2 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:08,040 Speaker 1: my sister and parents objected. 3 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:14,200 Speaker 2: Is that an abduction? Maybe let's find out. 4 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:18,919 Speaker 1: My younger sister went through a pretty rough time as 5 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: a young adult, drinking and doing substances and generally being wild. 6 00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: She ended up getting pregnant and giving birth at age 7 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: eighteen wow, when I was just a few weeks away 8 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:31,920 Speaker 1: from turning twenty one. She did not want the child 9 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,279 Speaker 1: after giving birth, and she refused to even pick up 10 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: the child and would leave her sitting in dirty nappies. 11 00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,800 Speaker 1: Ooh oh no ooh. By the way, this comes from 12 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 1: user lollipop trash four on the r slash okay storytime 13 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:49,560 Speaker 1: sub reddit.

Despite 22 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 1: never wanting children myself either, I stepped in and adopted 23 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: my newborn niece as my daughter. My then boyfriend, who 24 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: i'd been with for three years, gave me an ultimatum, 25 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 1: him or her, as he didn't want children either. I 26 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: picked her and he left me, which resulted in me 27 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: suddenly being a single mother. The first few years were 28 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 1: rough as a single parent, barely making ends meet, but 29 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:47,400 Speaker 1: I managed and my sister had nothing to do with us. 30 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: I never once hid the truth from my daughter that 31 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: she was adopted, but always assured her I loved her 32 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: so much and was her mommy. When my daughter was six, 33 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: my sister was finally clean and wanted to have access 34 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: to her. I allowed it, but stressed she would just 35 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: be an aunt to her, and she accepted this, though 36 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: it's clear she struggled with the concept and sometimes acted 37 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:11,799 Speaker 1: more like a. 38 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 3: Mothers really hard to put up a line suddenly, you know, 39 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 3: or not suddenly, but like to know that you're the 40 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:19,800 Speaker 3: mother and. 41 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:20,839 Speaker 4: Not act like a mother. 42 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: It's a hard thing to be like you lost mom permissions. 43 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 2: It's like, but I'm still the Yeah. 44 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: You know, if she's making actively, if she's actively taking 45 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 1: steps to better herself, I don't see why she shouldn't 46 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 1: be able to. 47 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 4: Be a mom. 48 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, be a mom. 49 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 3: It's like, but I think now it's uh, you know, O, 50 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 3: Pee's raised the child, right, so it's like, oh, Pee 51 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 3: is mother. But I do think you need to tell 52 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 3: the truth about the situation at some point. 53 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 1: But they already know. The kid knows, the child is 54 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: aware that they are adopted. 55 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 3: But no, no, but do they know that that is 56 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 3: the I don't let's continue. 57 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: I don't think we've gotten enough information to know that 58 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: for certain net. So, now my daughter is eight and 59 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: I've been offered a job in a different country. The 60 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 1: pay is almost double my current salary, and the company 61 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: is helping us find a home, putting my daughter in 62 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 1: an international school and after school care. So of course 63 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: I'm going to take it. But this resulted in my 64 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: family having a meltdown about how I can't do this, 65 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: and how it's cruel to take my daughter away from 66 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: her family, and how it's not fair to my sister. 67 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: My sister has told me that she won't allow me 68 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,880 Speaker 1: to move away with her her being her daughter, and 69 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: that sh'll fight in court to get my daughter back. 70 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: I've talked to lawyers and it seems that she doesn't 71 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: have a leg to stand on as my daughter is 72 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: legally my daughter. But the rest of my family is 73 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: telling me I'm being extremely cruel and if I cared 74 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: about my sister, I'd turn this job down so really quick. 75 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: I just would say, from my perspective, the only people 76 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: whose opinions uh truly matter here are the kids and 77 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: ops uh oh. P's taking this job to better her 78 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:17,320 Speaker 1: kid's life, you know, And it's not easy to travel internationally. 79 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: But at the same time, it's not impossible. So if 80 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: the bio mom who literally, like like OP said, legally 81 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 1: this is her child who was legally adopted by her, 82 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: she raised this child for eight years, So if you want, 83 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't think the bio mom can 84 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 1: just like all of a sudden now dictate what is 85 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: what's going to? What's going down here? What I heard 86 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: a woe? What are we woeing? 87 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 2: Are we woeing? 88 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: What happened? Little little Burb? Oh, Little Burb just gifted 89 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: ten memberships to the stream got out, Lilburb. Thank you 90 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: for those gifted memberships. I always love the gifted memberships. 91 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: I love the family continuing to grow shout out if 92 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:15,359 Speaker 1: you've gotten a gifted membership, let us know. Here we go, 93 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: let's continue. I left home. I left home at sixteen 94 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: and finished my education. My sister, meanwhile, is the golden 95 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: child who gets away with everything. She even now lives 96 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,520 Speaker 1: with our parents and doesn't work. My daughter, while sad 97 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 1: to be leaving her school and friends, is excited for 98 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: the move. I've been teaching her about the country every 99 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 1: night before bed, and we've gone to some authentic restaurants 100 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: to try to try the food from there. I've also 101 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: promised her we'll fly back at least once a year 102 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 1: to visit, and she can FaceTime and call her friends 103 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: whenever she wants. I feel like my family are angling 104 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 1: for me to eventually just hand my daughter back over 105 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: as it if I was just a temporary filler for 106 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 1: my sister, which was obviously which will obviously never happen, 107 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: and my lawyers are involved in this matter. Yeah, the 108 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,919 Speaker 1: absolute disrespect to be like, oh, yeah, you're just the 109 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 1: filler arc, You're just the filler parent. No, you say 110 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: you're that's my daughter. Now, it's my daughter you're talking about, 111 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: and it's not like anyway. Let's continue to read before 112 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: I trail off here. We got some comments. Comment number one, 113 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: you stepped up when none of the family did. I 114 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 1: assume they all knew your sister was neglecting her daughter 115 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 1: and did nothing to help the baby or help you 116 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: support her after adoption. They don't deserve anything, especially now 117 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,159 Speaker 1: it was best for you and your daughter. The sister 118 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: has zero legal rights, and really none of the family 119 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: has a right to say anything. Yeah, exactly except for 120 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 1: the kid. If your daughter, If your daughter is not 121 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: gonna if your daughter's gonna be upset about it, then, 122 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: which doesn't seem like the case. That's the only one 123 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: I would consider important. OPI replies. The rest of the 124 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 1: family were going to let her be given up to 125 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 1: strangers for adoption when the sister was deciding to give 126 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: her up. They basically only saw her a few times 127 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 1: a year pre pandemic. And this is very much the 128 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: golden child wanting to waltz back in and take her back, 129 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: and is being supported by our parents. I love my sister, 130 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 1: but she is spoiled and entitled, and it's you know, 131 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 1: it sounds like the parents have failed her. Comment too. 132 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: Look out for yours and your daughter's future. Move away 133 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: from your toxic family and go no contact. Your sister 134 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: lost any rights to be considered a mother. She's selfish. 135 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: Your sister and your parents can go f themselves. Don't 136 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: tell them when you'll be moving. Something tells me they'll 137 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 1: try to kidnap her. Congrats on the new job. Comment three, Dang, 138 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: you are a bad booty in every sense of the word. 139 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 1: You took on a huge responsibility which frankly shouldn't have 140 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: been yours at only twenty one. Obviously, you love and 141 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: support your child and have the emotional intelligence to consistently 142 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: put your child's needs first, for example, limiting contact with 143 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: problematic ants, being being honest about adoption, and familiarizing your 144 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: child with the new cuisine and culture of your home country. 145 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: Then you're rocking your career so much that you double 146 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: your salary. Employers don't typically provide those types of relocation 147 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: services for average people, so just another example that you're 148 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 1: probably destroying it at work. You also did all of 149 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: this as a single mother. Just wow, you make great decisions. 150 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: Don't question this one. Have a wonderful life in your 151 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:00,719 Speaker 1: new country with your great new job and lovely child. Oh, 152 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: he replied, I'm being asked to head the company's offices 153 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 1: in this country. I'm leaving out the name. I'm leaving 154 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,560 Speaker 1: the name out of the country for privacy reasons, but 155 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: it is in Asia. I think it's why they're trying 156 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: to sweeten the deal so much. Thank you so much. 157 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 1: You're very kind and it means a lot to me. 158 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: And we have an update.

It's like she's gonna miss her friends, 344 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,400 Speaker 1: but they're you're talking about coming back once a year. 345 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 1: And to my my, I made a point earlier as well, 346 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: it's like just because you move, like to a different country, 347 00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 1: you're it's not impossible to get there. It's not impossible 348 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 1: to impossible because these people. 349 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 2: It's harder, does make it's it's harder. 350 00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: How does your voice do that? But it has like 351 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 1: a reefer, That's what I'm saying. That's that's why I 352 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: was base boom. 353 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, literally, But I mean I think, like, you know, 354 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 3: my my mom moved from Australia to America and like 355 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 3: she still has a relationship with exactly her family. 356 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:18,880 Speaker 1: Back then, right, So it comes down to how much 357 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,160 Speaker 1: effort you're willing to put it. So as of right now, 358 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 1: they have moved to South Korea. The sister tried to 359 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: take her her once daughter out of school.

Just because we didn't submit a 368 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 1: police report does mean we did nothing. They gathered reports 369 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,199 Speaker 1: from the school and the CCTV footage, and then I 370 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,959 Speaker 1: invited my parents for a meeting at my lawyer's office 371 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,400 Speaker 1: where all the evidence was laid down. They had no 372 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: idea that this happened, and my mother broke down crying. 373 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 1: I made it clear our connections were family, where our 374 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:23,880 Speaker 1: connections were firmly cut. And if my if slash win, 375 00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: my daughter is if wait, and when my daughter is 376 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 1: an adult and wants to get in contact, we will reconsider. 377 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: But for now, our safety, Uh, for now, for our safety, 378 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: we will be going. 379 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 4: No contact honestly, if that makes sense. 380 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean after the yeah, little abducta abductee attempt, Yeah, 381 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 1: a little abductee. 382 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:47,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. 383 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 1: Not not cool, very very not cool. But what is cool, 384 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: by the way, is the fact that you can listen 385 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 1: to full episodes. 386 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,760 Speaker 2: Full with stories like this uncut. 387 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: All you have to do is go to Spotify, Apple Podcasts, 388 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 1: or your favorite podcast app and search, okay storytime. 389 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:13,920 Speaker 2: Raw episodes directly in your ear say moist raw no 390 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 2: raw episodes, and now I can't. 391 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I also I know this. This is a callback 392 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 1: to earlier when I was trying to come up with 393 00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: a different name for super soaker, moist maker. I'm gonna 394 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: veto that one. 395 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,280 Speaker 3: I don't know about that one. 396 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: So anyway, now that that's out of the way, Uh, 397 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:37,880 Speaker 1: there is a little bit of the story left. I think, 398 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,440 Speaker 1: I mean, we're on agreement that this was okay. Yeah, 399 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 1: the only opinion that matters here is the child's. 400 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,840 Speaker 5: It's the best thing for the child and the best environment. 401 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 5: I mean, it's a new environment, but it's probably the best. 402 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 2: Yeah. Good. 403 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 1: You know what, though, I don't think we ever got 404 00:22:53,600 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: the piece of information on if the child knows who 405 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 1: their biological mother is. I know that they know that 406 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: they're adopted. 407 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 4: I don't think we ever confirm that. 408 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was never explicitly stated that she knows that 409 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 1: her aunt is her bio mom or whatever. How so 410 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 1: do you would you tell her that? I mean, I mean, 411 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 1: I would think that she needs to know at least. 412 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 3: Who I think you know. I don't I think you 413 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 3: need to know your adopted I think you need I 414 00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 3: think you need age appropriate ways of telling the truth 415 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 3: in as many moments as possible. But I don't hold 416 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 3: as the child eight. 417 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: I think I think. 418 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 3: You can say like, hey, like this is your Hey, 419 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 3: just so you know like this is your this is 420 00:23:52,800 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 3: the person that birthed you, but I am. 421 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 4: Always going to be your mom. 422 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 3: Like, I don't know how you say that. No, I 423 00:23:58,480 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 3: think that sounds weird. 424 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 5: Give it some time, especially to Readjust like you guys 425 00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 5: are new beginnings, new environment, get more accustomed to everything. 426 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 5: Once you're all settled, I think it's time to have 427 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:16,000 Speaker 5: a more mature conversation. They're eight, I say, maybe a 428 00:24:16,040 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 5: little bit more. 429 00:24:16,640 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 1: Time, maybe eleven twelve, I would say, like age two, 430 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:24,360 Speaker 1: it's too complex for eple year old to really understand. 431 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 3: But I don't dynamics of the child the complex version. 432 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 4: I think you give a simpler version. 433 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: And maybe they did. I think maybe they because to 434 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: be clear to because it does not truth. Yeah, the 435 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 1: kid knows, the kid knows the fact that adopted, that 436 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 1: she is adopted. We never got I would I think 437 00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 1: maybe like the logical assumption there is that she also 438 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 1: knows who gave her up for adoption, right, So essentially, 439 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,959 Speaker 1: like I think we can maybe assume she knows who 440 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 1: her bio mom was. 441 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 5: Maybe just like you bring it up, like do you 442 00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 5: want to talk about it? I'm ready whenever you want 443 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:00,600 Speaker 5: to talk about it. Kind of thing, but I think 444 00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 5: may be a little too young. But again it's also 445 00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:05,600 Speaker 5: depending on the child. Yeah, it could, they could be 446 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:08,639 Speaker 5: really sure, especially this child who's been through. 447 00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 1: Well, there are some we've we've read some stories with 448 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 1: some incredibly surprisingly emotionally mature children, like eight year olds 449 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: like Aulay Cults, where they're just like, I'm worried about 450 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,120 Speaker 1: my impact on your relationship and it's like your eight 451 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: how do you even know that? Those are not the words? 452 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: It's like what, okay, let's let's finish this story. So 453 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,119 Speaker 1: I kept the dates of our flights a secret, and 454 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 1: my best friend has my keys and is closing up 455 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 1: the house for me and going to ship me the 456 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 1: heavier items when we are properly settled. My first action 457 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 1: on entering the country was to contact the local authorities 458 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 1: with the proof that my daughter was my daughter in 459 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: case my family tried to pull any bs. And the 460 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: people here are also aware of my situation, and no 461 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 1: one can find anything about us without a password. 462 00:25:58,320 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 4: You know. 463 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 3: That actually brings up the idea that the truth would 464 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 3: be a good idea to say to the child, because 465 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 3: if the child knows that there's this mom that is 466 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:14,120 Speaker 3: their biological mother. That's like trying to abduct her. Then, 467 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 3: I don't know that might be too heavy to put 468 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 3: on an age appropriate way, but I know how to 469 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 3: do that. 470 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 1: But like, how would you age appropriately be?
