    Man this kid hit the jackpot with his family. Absolutely wonderful people. They'll never give up on him.🥰

    It's just so precious that his mother talked about how he would throw her glasses and reject her, and he was obviously telling her that he was sorry without using words 🥲

    Timmy im like you in a way. Except im older, im 25 years old. I came from a family that did not love me my whole childhood and they made me homeless when i was 17. Even though youre much younger i have alot to learn from you Timmy about accepting love and owning but controlling our own emotions. When you said about "camping" on sadness you were exactly right.
    You're very awesome and inspirational to me, Timmy!
    I wish you the best in life going forward! You are a warrior for what you went through. Warriors unite!!!
    - Love from Shannon who lives in the UK!

    Chris, hands down- your very best interview! Without sugar coating or lots of ‘sappy’ sayings, this family opened their hearts to us( the viewers) and showed us true love and acceptance - warts and all. That’s why this story is so powerful and extra special ( IMO). And, I thought I had heard it all but you can learn something new every day- from now on I will remind myself NOT TO CAMP in my negative emotions! Again, I loved how ‘real’ Tim and his family are! Thanks ❤️

    As a Chinese American, I found this so heart warming and so glad he was adopted, accepted and living in America. Unfortunately in China, children are view differently than in America. Just look at their history of misogynistic treatment of the females. Why are there more females available for adoption? China ratio of male to female is so out of balance 0:40 that men can’t find women to marry. I find it ironic that females are choosing not to marry or have children.

    Timmy reminds me of my youngest brother Jeremiah. Such a cute little Asian-American kid 💕. During the time the coronavirus was at its highest, I had to protect Jeremiah from racist strangers. We're not Chinese, though, but my uncle, who was born in Laos, talked to all my Asian family members about how Asian-Americans are being attacked due to coronavirus racism.

      I can tell you a lot of kids like Timmy here in China. Firstly, some Chinese parents dont have much love to love one baby who is disability. Secondly,Chinese parents always give up their first baby who is disability or a girl because that the Chinese communist Party made one-baby policy. Then so many Chinese parents don't want a disability baby or a girl take the one-baby policy. That's also a reason that many American couples can adopt girls easily from China.
