Jared meets his family. One of the most fucked up things I’ve seen on TV.

One of my uncles was given away as a baby. I think he was the 8th and last to be born, and this was in South Vietnam during the 60's. Apparently my grandpa had promised the baby to a neighbor who couldn't have children of her own, and he did it without consulting my grandma, who was pissed to say the least. There's likely more to the story, but I sure as hell don't know it.

This uncle ended up resenting the shit out of his birth siblings for the longest time, all who have tried to reconcile with him, and has understandably lived his life with a chip on his shoulder. I think it was only really this last year that he managed to ease up and come to terms with his past a bit and be more receptive to his birth siblings.
