His adoptive parents made a huge mistake of telling him that when he wasn't matured enough to understand. I admired his effort to find his biological parents but the question would be, why would he want to inflict such pain of guilt and sadness upon these people just to satisfied his own desires. When this story broke out, I remembered that APD was hell bent in finding  his mother and charging her. Would she still be charged after all these years? Probably not but the stigma will wound that woman beyond all count if she was ever found.  Maybe this woman finally found her place, living happily with kids and grandchildren, all which will be compromise if she is link with that story. Am I feeling too sorry for that person, then her abandoned son? At the age of 30, being a combat veteran, he should know his place in this world by now, he isn't a boy anymore but a man.
