Long Lost Family (UK) S09E04

Long Lost Family UK Season 09 Episode 04
Episode four is an hour-long special following one woman’s search for her mother and, through the use of DNA testing, reveals layers of her family she never knew existed.
Kathleen Fraser Jackson was adopted as a baby and grew up in London. At the age of three her adoptive mother died. Kathleen was then raised by her adoptive father and stepmother, until she was sent to boarding school aged five. After her mother passed away, Kathleen felt lost. She tells the programme: “If you haven’t got a mother, you don’t get loved. I realised that that’s how I felt my whole life.”

    True confession. I've watched this episode multiple times, especially when I need emotional boost, a positive way to end my day before bed. Kathleen Fraser Jackson's spirit/soul makes my heart sing. What a marvelous woman! Her sister and brother are sweet and gentle souls as well. We need more people like these in our world.

That's the Caribbean spirit right there. Her brother is a true Jamaican; the talk, the walk, the stare, so beautiful to see. Everybody has their own genuine God given identity.

    @@cloverbrown971 Adoption is different now, adoptive parents tend to stay in touch with the birth mother and the father if he is in the picture (for medical history if nothing else), and the kids often maintain some kind of relationship with them. There are many families desparate to adopt, so if women prefer to carry their pregnancies to term it is a blessing for prospective adoptive parents. As far as why, in the early 1960s or thereabouts, she carried two pregnancies to term and gave the infants away, that is her business and nobody else's. Just as it would have been if she hadn't.

Once she became pregnant with their first child, her family cut her out of their lives. She wasn’t ever going to reject ANYONE her children chose. We have a United Nations around our table, from Chinese, to Ukrainian, Italian (when they were still called WOPS), Indigenous Canadian and Jamaican. My Mom used to always say that if all families looked like ours there would be far less hate in the world And I LOVE the warmth these sisters have for each other. It’s beyond lovely
