The son: displays clear signs of growing up in poverty/traumatized the mom: clearly the only thing to do is get rid of him, not getting a therapist

Seeing how devastated the father was is actually heartwarming... He clearly really loves the boy and found the idea horrifying.

The woman was awful. If your son was having issues, FIND A WAY TO SOLVE THEM!!!! DON’T GIVE THEM AWAY!!!!

I feel sorry for the guy who adopted the boy who did not throw him away but his wife did. I know it's a show but my heart went out to him.

It was refreshing seeing the father character not being the bad guy

The wife: *Gives away a child who who is having issues dealing with past trauma therefore traumatizing him more* Also the wife: Clearly I am the REAL victim here!

That _“mom”_ was treating the entire situation like she was adopting a _puppy,_ instead of a _child._

Stealing money and food is a major sign of the child growing up in a home where you are not given stable living necessities. That child was no threat, he was scared and afraid of people, he knew she probably didn't want him.

That woman deserves to be arrested and I hope the dad gets his son back.

Kids aren’t something you buy and return. That’s a human being that deserves love

As an adopted child this makes me sick. I have high functioning autism and was not an easy child growing up, but my parents never gave up on me. A real parent grows and adapts alongside their child.

Lady, there are these things called therapists. Some of them work with children. Some of them specifically adopted children with special needs. Your husband looks like he makes enough money that paying for that shouldn't be an issue. I'll agree it's scummy if you were expecting a baby and they send you an older kid, but this ain't how you deal with that. Anyone planning to adopt please remember: kids are not in the system willingly. They do not want you. They want their birth parents to love them and be able to take care of them. Don't be mad if even kids you raised from babies get a little mad at the world when they get old enough to understand they're only with you because the world isn't perfect.

The husband has a right to be mad. When you adopt a child, you have to be ready to accept the responsibilities of taking care of a child who might have behavioral and emotional issues. You have to be prepared for that. Disgusting that the mom was trying to justify her actions and play the victim.

Any child would be lucky to have a father like that guy, he was absolutely heartbroken

I know that this happens, I know a family who have adopted 2 Chinese 10yo girls who were adopted by an older couple but then given away because it "took too much time away from our careers" The most disgusting, foul, inhumane, cruel thing you could do to a child who's already been given up.

That poor guy. His wife is a monster

When you CHOOSE to become a parent, then you are signing up for bad days, misbehavior, and all sorts of other things. As a parent, you need to sit down with your kid and do some problem solving. You don't just give your kid to strangers because your child is acting out. All kids, especially kids who come from other countries where they were in an orphanage, need families with patience, kindness, unconditional love and respect. I'm absolutely disgusted that this happens. CHILDREN ARE HUMAN BEINGS!! Rehome a damn sofa, not an innocent child.

“You’re the mother” “no I’m the police” that was badass

Whenever a child or children are in danger it hits everyone hard especially Voight. You never abandon a child just because they’re having trouble, you get help and adjust you don’t take the easy way out. This woman should be locked up for child endangerment

“Your the mother” “No I’m the police”

What was so messed up about this episode is that rehoming for children is a real thing. I never knew that until this episode and then did some research to see if it was true. It is. You can REHOME a kid. That’s so scary.

"The IP address is from the dark net" Ahahahahhaaaa. Oh God. So many things wrong with that sentence.

My favorite line ever " your the mother?" "No police."

I'm autistic and my younger brother is more so. Despite having four kids my mom has always done her best to raise us and I think she's done an amazing job. Hearing about parents that give up on their children because it's too difficult for them makes me really uncomfortable.

If I was the father I will file for divorce and custody of my twin daughters for the simple fact that if they become too much for her she might just do the same thing again😢😢

Lady was talking like she was dealing with a second-hand vacuum cleaner instead of a living being. She didn't care about Kwan, didn't even try to work with him and try to make him feel safe.

Adoptions do fall through, but therapy could be tried, and at least give him away through the proper channels, not to criminals. When you adopt a child, especially older ones, you EXPECT issues, no one adopts without knowing there could be issues.

Why did the “I got you” and hug make me tear up?!

That woman should never be allowed to have children ever again in this universe. You don't just give up an adopted child because you want one that's "easy to control" that's disgusting!

Safe haven laws also apply for older kids. You know it's legal to leave your kid at a firehouse/hospital, but you can also leave older kids there. Imagine being a kid, not a baby and you parent just drops you off at the hospital and never comes back.

And they wonder why kids just run after being adopted or fostered. When you hear horror stories like re-homing, you'd run too. The adoption agency they came from may have the strictest set of rules but once they're in another country, the re-homing rules are more lax.

There was a similar episode on Law & Order: SVU before this that had Rosanna Arquette as the special guest star. She played a woman who partnered up with her husband by forging documents and having false identities so they could adopt these children that have been “returned” for the purpose of filming and selling CP (I don’t think I need to spell it out). The main child that the detectives were searching for had been given away by his adoptive mother secretly while the father was out of town on a business trip (he did that often) and the place she gave him to only required one parent’s signature I believe. The boy was from a different country and was “difficult” according to the mom and she initially blamed the father for always being gone. Thankfully they found the boy alive and they also found two other girls that were a little bit older. They also found a newborn baby that Rosanna’s character abducted. That newborn baby would eventually become Noah Benson. 🥺 So I really don’t understand how you would only need ONE of the adoptive parents to just give away or “return” the child that you promised to care for and love. *The title of the SVU episode is called, “Wednesday’s Child” for anyone curious!

The father was devastated!!!!

As someone who had been adopted, that mom makes me sick. I have high functioning autism, anxiety, and trauma from my own mother and I'm grateful that my biological aunt (someone I consider my actual mom) helped me with therapy.

You can tell the father loves the son, blood or not. And even though the father works he does it to maintain his family. She was selfish for a good reason but she did it the wrong way

It is sad how many kids get turned away during an adoption process because the adults cannot or do not think they can handle all of the trauma and psychological issues the kid has. What this woman did was wrong and how she handled it was unforgivable, but the dad should have listened to her more and found alternative ways to help the boy instead of expecting his wife to handle it all on her own. Especially if the boy was acting in a way that posed a danger to other kids in the home which is possible in some cases.

The rehoming concept is not unlike surrendering animals to an animal shelter... ... only they're children. I wouldn't even dream of surrendering my dogs let alone, children.

If you adopt, you should never “rehome” the child or children you adopted. It doesn’t matter if the orphanage lied to you. When you have a biological kid, you don’t know what kind of problems that child will have. It’s no different from adopted kids except you should expect the adopted child to have trauma. And you work through the trauma with the child. If you can’t help a child or children with trauma then don’t adopt.

When it comes to Hank Voight you never want to mess with kids on his watch

“You’re the mother?!” “No, I’m the police.” PFTTTT HAHAHAHAHA

That boy is obviously traumatised and instead of getting her help she GAVE HIM AWAY??? Wtf

Omg this rehoming thing is like the story from the RU-vid family who gave their adopted son away. They 100% got him for views and sympathy points but he proved to be "too special needs" for them. This makes me so furious

I was happy to see that the father wasn’t the bad guy.

I feel bad for the guy. He held a man at gun point, just so he could get his son back. That's the definition of a good father. Does anyone know what happened to him and his son?

When my parents adopted me I was seven I was constantly stealing lying because of what I went through it took them years and years and therapy to help me but they stuck with me through thick and thin you just have to want to be a parent and a change for that child’s life and clearly that’s not what she wanted she was not ready for that position it’s sick

People who adopt children should be evaluated mentally because you can not give up your child because they are difficult. If you won't give up your blood the same should go for your adopted child. Adopted children will have abandonment issues because they are treated as a commodity.

Unfortunate this still happens. Pages all over face book "rehoming" kids and giving them new names and ages. They don't even verify who the kids are going to.

I love that scene right at the end 🤣🤣🤣🤣 it's so off. "Calm down... Just admire the feel of the barrel pressed against your skull."

I probably would have reacted the same way the dad did if my husband gave either our children away even though they're not adopted but if I had adopt a child and he gave him or her away? Yeah I would probably be just like that guy. I would go nuts

"I love my son" - Family isn't just always blood, a great chunk of the time, it's based on love. Something this dad would know a lot about❤

If you can't care for a child then you GET HELP. If you're fostering and really just can't handle it, even if it sucks, that child deserves the best care they can get and they go back to the foster system or to different foster parents. You don't just give kids away to randos. Makes me sick

Love Hank and all the Chicago shows ♥️

👍🏼This is a great episode 👏It has all the fan fave CPD A-List characters... Voight, Atwater, Ruzek, Burgess, Upton Olinsky, Dawson, and Halstead. Man do I miss the good Ol' days of CPD.

If you adopt a dog that's been abused from a rescue kennel you sign on for its lifetime. The same goes for children but their lifeline is longer. If you can't promise to be with that child for life then buy yourself one of these life-like dolls. When you get bored with it then throw it away. It hasn't feelings and it is perfect for people with no conscience.

As someone who studies the development of children and have witnessed MANY foreign children who struggle in American homes due to trauma this is a very true reality. I’ve seen food aggression, stealing, hiding, running away, kicking, biting, attacking. And it’s all because of trauma they may not even know why they have it but it becomes wired in their brain from when they are infants. So if you plan to adopt/foster from countries that are known to be third world ie russia, India, Korea etc. you must realize your child will have PTSD and may not even remember why.

That shoulder check and then the “where you thought you was goin boy?” Was just 😌

The adoption should never gone ahead, especially when your wife is not in favour. You both need to be 100% in agreement. Yes, I know, it's only make believe TV but in real life, it could happen.

I feel so sorry for the father. He just wants his son. He clearly loves his son. And that woman can rot in prison.

You know hank is a bad ass. The whole team is walking in the open feild everyone but voight has thier big gun's drawn. Where voights gun? At his side. He's like i dare you to try

Yeah don’t adopt a child unless you’re capable of dealing with their issues, they’re not a puppy (even that’s a whole thing I can rant about), they’re a person, a living feeling being. They aren’t a fashion accessory you can just toss away.

“Your the mother?” “No I’m the police” that made me laugh ngl

I don't care what a child does, you DEAL with them and with patience, love and care.

This story remind me of the youtuber who gave her son away because apparently he was violent toward her and her other children

"two kids. . . both dead." that line hit hard.

Those two clearly weren’t fully prepared for adoption

Would love to watch the next part of this

For those who cannot afford the network app. The ending was very sad. They never found the missing kids and kwan father was sentenced to 20 years for his crime.

I'll admit. 'Can you run a Passenger, Brown in Color' threw me for a second. Was like '...damn'

I feel for the dad.

I just love this show and the head police chief and his partners that play with him. I look at the show every Thursday night. Like seeing the sears tower in some of the scenes. 😅❤❤❤❤👍🥰

Gotta give it to the dad, a true chicago guy right there

No. If your kid is having issues, talk to a doctor, a therapist, or a preacher. You don't sell your kid online like an old couch!! And you CERTAINLY don't do it BEHIND YOUR SPOUSE'S BACK!! I can't believe the amount of times I've had to say this: CHILDREN ARE NOT POKEMON CARDS OR PUPPIES!!! You can't just give them to someone else and expect everything to be fine!!!

If I was that guy I would sue for permanent custody of all the kids. The mom can’t be trusted.

Just look at Olinsky stridin up to that house like a boss.

This is almost identical to an SVU episode.

Why are they trying to make the “mother” seem sympathetic?

The way he kicked the door In 🤣😂🤣

I wish my father fought hard like he did for me

Now I have to search to find out what happened in the end.😂

Stealing food?? I think that's called child abuse, not feeding your kid.

al is by far the most chill person on tv

I would divorce my wife and not only fight for custody but a life restriction against her.

Can't wait for the new season

i saw an episode similar to this in the kdrama "taxi driver 2" . both have different stories on how it goes, but both are amazing.

This man is a great Dad

Good job officers 👍❤️

Love the show

Here’s a little advice for people who thought the mom was in the right IF YOU DONT WANT TO ADOPT “DIFFICULT” CHILDREN THEN DONT ADOPT AT ALL THEY ALL HAVE PROBLEMS NOT ONE OF THEM GO THROUGH THE SUSTEM UN SCATHED

I didn't start watching chipd at the start. The one tree hill girl was gone by the time I started watching "chicago Wednesday." I forgot about Al. I may have started watching at the tail end of his last season.

If your partner cannot get along with your biological or adopted child, then break up with them at once. It ain't worth it if they give up so quickly.

Lmao, imagine not telling someone their son is safe and sound. Instead giving the assumption that's he's still kidnapped. And not descalating the situation by telling him.

If she was going to rehome the child then the least she could have done was make sure that he was actually safe and with an actual loving family.

I adopted 2 kids with extreme issues, violent, mental and criminal. Both were under 10 when I got them. I fought for their needed care, pulled together a team of friends, relatives, hospitals, mental health care, officers, etc and raised them to adulthood. Body guards were required for me when they tried to kill me but they were like they were cause of extreme abuse in their past. They are now functioning adults and not in prison. They aren't currently speaking to me cause I am disabled and poor now but I feel it was all a success! I ended up raising them on my own though cause my husband walked away and washed his hands of them when it got tough. And that's putting it nicely.. I had to go to human services myself on him.

quans dad should have no charges should be crime of passion and he should get cut loose from it. Can’t be blamed for loving and caring for his son

Cena triste mas a agilidade desta Equipe é maravilhosamente incrivel

I feel so bad for the father.

I love Sergeant Voight Hank and Detective Halstead they are one of the best Officer's in the world I would love to get a heart on my comment ❤

OH Kwan's poor dad ❤💔

I love Burgess so much like everyone is wearing the same outfit and she is rocking a feminine coat that is also sparkly, intimidating and stylish
