UK mom meets son 52 years after she was forced to give up newborn

A woman in Britain recently reunited with her son – 52 years after she unwillingly surrendered her newborn boy for adoption.

Lynne Oakes was just 14 in 1968 when she became pregnant during a relationship with an older man, according to reports out of the UK. She was shipped to a home for single mothers and spent just 10 days with her son before he was “snatched from her arms” and taken away for adoption.
