I Was Missing for 33 Years | What It Was Like

That's how old Steve Carter was when he stumbled upon a photo of himself on a missing person website. Raised in a Hawaiian orphanage and adopted at age four, Steve's biological roots were always a mystery. On today's episode, he tells the story of his own disappearance.

    Great interview. What a juxtaposition for Steve to be thrown into. Here he is giving hope to the families who are missing loved ones but his family, the Carter's are the one's who truly loved him. I think his father definitely had a dark side and Charlotte was in no position to be anywhere around a baby. It wasn't said but it was pretty obvious she wasn't raising her daughter at the time Steve was found in the the famous Dog door kicking meth house. Again great interview and I'm glad Steve fell up the M F-ing cracks 😂

    I can relate to this story so much! My story isn’t as dramatic, but as an adopted child connecting with birth relatives… 🧑🏻‍🍳💋

    Poor Charlotte. She obviously needed help which was not provided. Shame on society and health services for not helping new mothers better. Shame on his dad for not making sure she got help. Silly question from the interviewer, after stating she didn't do a good job of taking care of him. Are you really that naive about things?

    Judgemental much? This was over 40 years ago. The support services that we have today weren’t available. Dad was a Vet struggling with his own unsupported mental health. The blame here lies with in so many places.

    @supergran62 not judgmental at all. It's a fact. I stated different people who should have been helping, don't know why you've just done the same. And whether the dad was a vet or not, he should have also done something. Anything.

    @@whatever-ou2he so, she moved to Hawaii, intervention from child support services and mental health support isn’t help? Yes it took a couple of years, but it did happen eventually. The child was very young when she left. A first time dad, with his own mental health issues, would not in all likelihood have had the ability to notice that the mother was struggling. Even if he had found that she needed help, where would he turn in the late 70’s? I find it very interesting that you lay the blame immediately at the father’s feet. It’s just not black and white.

    @supergran62 I find it very strange that you make such a long response to my comment and made it obvious you didn't read my comment. Read it again. I did not immediately lay the blame on the father, I mentioned others first. Btw, I watched the full video and dug deeper before making my initial comment, don't need your synopsis.
