Matt Kennon Discovers Shocking Details About His Adoption

Love all my country pals, just wish I could see them every day.

Too much in common there with Matt.. Adopted and all, Met my egg donor when I was 18 and it was a blessing that I was adopted !!

and the song "The Call" hits home !!

There should not be such negative things on here it's simply "his" story. Who are any of you to judge him? You have not walked in his shoes. Kuddos to those who have the positive things to say. You others should listen to this guys song. It might be someone like you that needs "A call"

He should be thankful that the doctor abided by the law and refused a late term abortion. It sounds like his biological parents made all kinds of bad decisions, but here he is - with a loving family and a career most would die for. We can't choose the circumstances we are born into, but we can choose how we respond to them.

Wow Grape must you be so rude. And Serves Him Right Suzie... glad you never gave a damn. But some of us do and I don't see why that's a bad thing. Didn't your 92 y.o. mom teach you compassion? Maybe knowing the fault lines that runs through his birth family will be helpful in the long run. Like to be aware of the potential for addiction. I was 21 when my parents split the search fee with me to find my birthmom and besides learning the geneology, I learned that besides the diabetes that was mentioned in the adoption paperwork, there is a history of heart disease and cancer that was not.

Nobody wants to down the guy for wanting to seek out his birth parents...personally I applaud him for having the courage to face that fire...but what is being downed is the fact that this is not actually newsworthy information for the entire world...it is only news worthy to those directly involved.

It all goes back to the same story regarding the famous...if a child of parents that live in a trailer park goes missing, does it make national news? no, but if somebody with wealth does it makes every single syndicated media point from coast to coast.

If this is what he wanted and he sought out his birth parents surely he was either intelligent enough or educated on the possibility that what he found could be dismal and could be rejected a second time. If it were me, I would thankful that my biological parents gave me up...and most of all I wouldn't air my dirty laundry out for the world to see...I never knew my father from the time I was 1 years old because he was removed from us due to his unstable mental condition after returning from Viet Nam...I found him in 1999 at the age of 31..nobody helped me..i did it by myself through my own research...he is still very sick...do you think I can make national news for it??

the only real issue here is that this is not valid news...its just a rag can't find anything else to report on so the chose this one hit wonder...if you want real news, just tune into CNN

Because somebody gets into the entertainment industry and gains a little wealth and fame...DOES NOT MEAN THEY ARE HAPPY!

I talked to Hammer the other day and he has never been happier, and realizes the friends he has now are with him because they like him...not his wallet!

Matt,
Joseph was sold into slavery. And after all those years he realized one thing: What they had meant for evil, God had meant for good. Now, that can go alot of ways. But that's between you and God. It's HIs call to you. I'll be praying for you, keep praying for me. I'm still waiting to see what God has meant for me in my situation; I want to make sure that God gets what He wants from my situation, for everybody involved.
I see my life in every stanza of The Call. Literally. Thank you for singing from the depths of your heart. It has helped me today. Bless you, brother. We look forward to hearing about what you've learned from all this in the future. Just stay true to your Witness.

Adoption, in my opinion, is a double -edged sword.disregarding the merits it has to society, and focusing only on the individual, Which this gentleman has done, can be a huge endeavor, mentally. I walked this same path, and wondered for years the truth... for many reasons. Eventually, as in this case , all the answers came out. Also, as in this case, they were not the best answers, they were "complicated" The real point I am trying to make, is to people in a similar situation,that need to know the answers. People, please prepare yourselves, as demons may lie within. Whatever the outcome, good or bad, your life will change when the answers have been found. Each individual must weigh this, and determine if changes in life of this magnitude are a good idea or not. I can assure you, sometimes it is better to stick with whatever is made in the mind. Leave this as a memory of these "parents" instead of what you may find:) Good luck to all, and especially to this gentleman, who dared to find the truth...Sir, I hope your ego is well, and these answers have not caused you mental damage, we are a product of our parents... only...not a continuation of them. We are free.
