    Thank you to all of you who watched and commented. Whether you liked, didn’t like or loved the film, what’s really important is that Black girl’s stories get written and developed into cinematic narratives. This story may not being for everyone and I’ve lived long enough to understand how race and politics play out on the American stage and I don’t really care about any of it. If this story gives one Black girl or boy, man or women hope in any small way to shine light on another way to heal oneself then, so be it. Thanks again for your comments. Good blessings to you all🧡

    This story is a tear jerker. I waa fortunate enough, to have adopted a child who needed me. He is now 31 years old, & he bought so much joy to my life. These kids just need love. The system needs to be scrutinized & changed. 👏🏾

    I didn't even hear about this movie, I was just scrolling through channels and decided to watch it. Haha I never watch lifetime but glad I did this time around. Really opened my heart and eyes to appreciate the people around you who love you. Makes you realize how bad someone else may have it. That's a true story of a warrior with a heart of gold! Made a cold hearted 25 year old man cry like a kid again.

    Omg I cried so much at the end of her lifetime story. 😭😭😭😭 I had a feeling it was based off a true story, but when I seen the actual pictures at the end, I couldn't help but cry. It's such a shame that so many children have to go through this. I also admire her strength to never give up!

      I needed the ending. I think everyone that watched her story was needing that ending. It has my fiancé and I thinking about becoming foster parents. There are too many children that need love and compassion. Her story is seriously having us consider fostering and adoption.

Just got to the part where they turned Ms. Kerr away. I googled to see if there was a happy ending. Better late than never!!! I'm SO glad she was able to be adopted, even if at 41. Everyone deserves to be wanted!
