i thought so tooo :))))))

SAME, wow

Yep

❤❤❤❤❤

❤Much respect to your husband❤

Times were different but I agree with the sentiment.

​@@Hey_Blinkin, was going to say, things then weren't like they are now.

he might have had many reasons not to try and find his son; he might have thoyght what if the mom remarried and the son don't know his past, what if the son rejects him, what if his effort to find his son would only mess up his son's and the mom's life...better to let the son search for him IF he wants to find him!

Pardon me for asking this... What's the origin of "Chunn" ?

I am so sorry for your loss.

His soul lives in your heart.

I think in the Afghanistan/Iraq/US war, there might have been some of that, or maybe not due to Islam being so strict…

That’s AWFUL!

@@priscillavelazquezs No it was def happening in Iraq/Afghanistsn. They def are not pious. Esp the men and little boys. 😳🤮

@sbella 1607 I'm sad for your loss. I hope you had the opportunity to meet some kind people who knew him and could share some of their stories about him with you.

The narrator says he had an American stepfather...and the pic shows his younger siblings. I guess his mom had moved on with another man who was willing to take care of her. Either way, good for the son. But I'm not touched by the story.

I know you are clueless by asking this sorry question! Those times were tough and it was difficult not only for Vietnam Vets to transition to civilian life and many had ptsd. His dad was probably 19 or 20 years old back then! Vietnam vets were spit on and belittled when they returned home! Also that was a war torn country and the civilians moved around a lot! Those were difficult times! Stop judging this father, he stated that he tried to find the mother & his child! Any veteran / military active soldier understands when Uncle Sam makes you move out, you have no choice! He didn’t purposely abandon the mother! There are plenty of children/fathers who never met each other due to the complexities of that horrible war & the Vietnamese women were ostracized for having a “mixed child” and in our country some men deliberately didn’t want to find their Vietnamese children also! That’s called life! When you serve & fight in a war that you were drafted into then you can speak, otherwise sthu!

@@muniondalenewyurk6777 he could have gone back in the 1980s or even 90s. And I will NOT sthu!

@@muniondalenewyurk6777never head of condoms ? Or not having sex ?

@@muniondalenewyurk6777that’s called EVIL

@MyYouie Well I'M glad that you are here in this world! And so is your Heavenly Father. He has a purpose, a healing, and an abundant life waiting for you! Check Him out, his earthly name is Jesus Christ. Get to know Him, best dad ever! 🙂

Exactly!

He's definitely a turd. He said I hooked up with a girl. He didn't want the kid or the mom.

He never said he didn't look. In his seventies I'm not sure he'd know the best way how. Questions of the past are also irrelevant as he was willing and eager to meet his son and have it filmed here.

Nothing would stop me from looking if I knew I had a child out there. His mother was never given his address in the U.S.??? What did he say when he left Thailand??? "It was fun babe, good luck with the baby"????????

@@victorblock3421I agree! I don’t know how people could just NOT buy a ticket later and go find your girlfriend and baby…. unless the soldier was married, which would be awful!

@@Lily_of_the_Forest My greatest regret in life was settling for less and not having children. Always was a dream to have a child, boy or girl. I'm too old to realistically hope anymore. I'd never leave my kid.

I agree
