I don’t care that it’s a TikTok, still worth a share.

Would a laugh so hard if he was like fuck you guys I wanted a PS5

Hit me like a freight train too. My youngest's name is Carter
Zaboom16
Ohhh wtf thanks now I’m sobbing
FrnxtGhrtSonyGurm
The recording would have been apt if he'd said 'f u, where's my PlayStation', or some such.
SomebodyGet2020APuppers
The picture was kinda cold, though, right? Here's our family, you're not in it!!! That moment before he read the note was kinda tense.

I cannot imagine what a child must feel like crossing from no family to an instant family, all wanting you to be part of it.
LollipopKid
Plot twist... He's being adopted into a cult
GuestChrist
I too wish to be a Kiphart.
ecobuckeye
Would you settle for clipart?
I was alluding to the idea the the Klipharts seem like a nice family and if the kid's that happy I'm sure they're good people.
HenryLongfellowIII
GD onions.
Fauxcused
I don't know Carter but I already love him.

Fucking hell, that title is on point.
pussyface
I'm now crying and pooping, thanks

Your adoption is a special gift for you. And everyone else who watches online. This doesn’t seem like a moment that should be shared.
DerekHand
Then don't share yours.
That was my point. I wasn’t supporting this being shared. It’s weird, private for that kid, and shared only for the benefit of not him
And my point was mind your own business. You don't know these people, they could have asked the kid if it was okay, you don't know.
“Mind your business” about content posted freely on social media? All the more reason not to exploit a kid’s joy, right? Lol
fskn
Streborel
STFU. I’m not sobbin’ my eyes out, you are.
DeadeicPrints
Wow I started sobbing from 0 to 100 in no time flat.
EricTheBear
I’m a grown man with a beard crying like a baby here. As a child of adoption I know how this feels.
bunwiggle
Grown man with a beard. Yup user name checks out. You’re sweet.
Holinyx05
Christmas onions hit different from regular onions
OmegaYeti
Fuck tiktok, don't care what the content is.
ObiWanShalomi
ok (:
SailorPupitar
Hell the video predates tiktok so that's worse.
jwillustrat
Listen. I appreciate it guys but my mom just wanted me to ask if you had any eggs? She’s trying to bake a cake and I really need to get home
sydneygirl
Carter is the little kid who asked for a banana
TK421isAFK
Well, OK, but first I'd like to share the word of our lord and savior with you. Do you know Jesus?
push2play
Lovely and heartwarming and you bet I'm crying, but it really should be a private moment for him.
sleepy12
Right?!
I’m okay with it if it’s to inspire others to adopt.
Acevedo4President
This inspires people to get attention cause they can do shit like this. I feel more i clinced to unadopt people like you
ekabear
I feel like adoption is more driven by love, than inspiration
yuikol14
What is the definition of inspiration in this sentence?
TheOneAndOnlyButtStabber
isn't it funny how other people feel they need to tell you how to live your life? Do w/e the fuck you want! I love your post!
Specializedchuck
Well son...To be honest, I wasn't going to adopt you until I saw this really inspiring Imgur video....our family is so thankful for Imgur

And Carter behind door number 2 could be a PS5, would you like to trade and find out?

Thank you for the bad joke. You avoided me to start sobbing. Damn onions.
ThisIsYourLifeNow
aaaaaaaand its sold out! Bad timing Carter, you took to long to answer, better luck next time.
Skizzlesnap
Now pack up your things quickly. Ronald McDonald House closes at 6:00.
mustardburp
that hug could easily transition into a RNC and then it's involuntary nap time if Carter said no =D
CaptainOC
I can't say why, but this brought me to tears laughing, so thank you
SpaceSphere
If they open the 3rd door always take the new door it'll have a 66% chance of being a winner vs a 33% "Monty Hall paradox" check it out
scarbelly
Now Raymond, don't start a scene.
MithridateEupator
I hate that paradox because it doesn't even make sense when I understand it
That's what makes it a good paradox
FlissFloss86Gaming
Don't be a fool Carter! PS5's aren't real! (and even if they did exist there's like 1 exclusive game that can't also be purchased on PS4)
AerospaceNinja
But when it plays and looks 5x better on a ps5 for the ps5 version it’s worth it.
ScrippyChan
It's not. Not to me anyway.
Not worth scalper prices or paying for a stupid membership at a box store for the privilege of buying it at MSRP
Also I just played through Ragnarok on my base PS4. It still looks phenomenal, and although 30 fps isn't as nice as 60, still plays well too
There’s plenty of ps5’s out there to not buy from scalpers. Idk what membership you’re talking about. Just wait for a sale
Have you actually looked? Cuz I have, and the only ones for sale at any major retailer I've found require memberships. I have yet to see (1
Iputthebestinbestiality
I just put my name on a waiting list, and 3 weeks later I was offered to buy one. IIRC it was $650 for disc version plus extra controller
NergalJester
I walked into a random GameStop 6 months ago and just picked one up?
You were lucky? Like, come on - if you have been following PS5s at all you have to have heard of availability issues
Buckman1988
As someone who is adopted this is nice but please don’t record us. We aren’t a novelty. Nice to see he’s loved.
Thiefofmemes
Lol. Are you the spokesman for all adoptees? Maybe the kid was glad it was recorded so it could be posted on social media.
psychologisttheologist
I'd want to record a moment like this, but more to save the moment than anything. But then once I have it, sharing the moment seems okay.
You're also not a monolith so kindly shut up
Don't worry, I started recording you a long time ago :)
CarrotsCarrots
I also feel odd about his adoption being for xmas. Like it's a gift that he should say thank you for? Still someone's cutting onions here.
tarnok
I understand exactly what you're saying. I like to believe however they asked Carter if it was ok to post. Less cynicism
VaultGirl69
I feel that way about most videos. Leave people, especially children, especially abused children, with some dignity.
TacoPoweredHelicopter
To some people there kids are fun novelties to post on the internet about.

My first thought on watching this was, "Oh what a beautiful moment." And then, "Why am I seeing this? Seems like this should be private."
AroAce
True
mustbethedragon
It should be private. Even in the best of circumstances, adoption is born from trauma.
Neiloch
Would have been better if the kid rehearsed his prop work and remembered his blocking /s JFC just let him open it and look at it his own way
tythiss
I disagree, I find this quite novel.
i2ocker89
If I adopted a child or teen even I'd fully treat them like all my kids, I'm recording for the memories together
spittleteets
Thank you for sharing a part of your life and for bringing awareness to this. People need to not share intimate moments like this.
TheMadMason
That was my thought. I wouldn’t like to record my new son like, or anyone really. Let the moment happen.
PoppaBigBear
Fuck that, record it, just don't put it on the internet? You're gonna be old and feeble one day, these recordings are for future you.
kraquepype
I get that, but I'm glad this moment was shared.
Depends45
I agree, I am adopted and feel this way. So does my adopted brother.
KonamiHatchiborii
I think that's what they meant. Like don't turn it into something to plaster online. It's definitely something you can record and cherish
gypsyspot
true, but without knowing the whole story it's tough to judge, maybe Carter wanted it posted. who knows.
Thegreenestthumb9
Maybe he even posted it himself.
Lsai
Same. Though, is it legally possible to adopt a 43-year-old and her son? I'd like to feel love like this for once.
phoenixandfreddy
I recently heard you can 'adopt' lonely seniors without family through retirement residences. I hope I can by next Christmas!
pewpschmear
My family recently adopted my 28yo best friend so I'm sure it's possible, why not?
DLoSer
"Us". Are you speaking for every adoptee worldwide? Oh dear, I guess I should delete every vid I've taken of my adopted daughter over 13 yr
I dont believe they were implying that you shouldn't take videos of ur child but rather this particularly intimate moment. Yes, adoptees are
not a monolith and their privacy should also be prioritized before disseminating this publicly.
Tattooedpariah
I had to tell my mom to stop posting sappy shit about being "the man who stepped up" or whatever after i adopted my wife's daughter..
ArcaneM37
My husband (whose twins i adopted) has never done this, and i never considered that he should. I told him i married him for his kids. ?
Like, she's my kid now, those posts make her feel like a charity case or something. Screw that, that's MY kid.
zmaysonet17
Proud of you
AllMyOpinionSuck
Some people like to record to save special moments to re-live them. Sharing could be argued I don't see the harm in just recording.
PorneliusHubertII
As a person that doesnt like beimg recoeded, recording me while i was emotionally distraught would be grounds for me cuttimg you
Out of my social circle.
Doesn't sound like a loss to me then, we are all different. My memory doesn't work for pictures or colors. We would be incompatible friends
murderhobbit
That opinion doesn't suck. The previous message was extreme, and you're having a normal reaction explaining why videos are important to you
My message was my personal feelings on the matter. Nobody has to agree with it. I understand that everyone is different.
