Did You See Oprah and Her New Sister?

I saw part of it. I was a little frustrated because I felt that they left her in the lurch. They could have expanded it more. Oprah could have concentrated on the issues for the adoptee, her sister. Its always interesting to see reunions. At least this time, the adoptive parents were not mentioned. I felt that the show was a little self centered. They made it about Oprah and her mother.

I think forcing her mother out of the closet as she did was probably not very helpful. The show could have reflected more on the laws in this country instead of Oprah's personal stance on her public personality.

Adoptees are not out to ruin families but find their connection in the world. Its a shame that Oprah did not do more for adoptees and their families.
