Mom finds son after years, son picks foster family

A woman who finally found her son after a 15-year search had to walk away from him empty-handed, for he refused to abandon his foster parents in Dongguan, Guangdong province.

Huang Lajiao, 52, gave her second-born son up for adoption some 20 years ago due to financial difficulties. But as finances started improving, Huang started looking for the boy and 15 years later, found out that her son's name was Li Bin and he lived in Dongguan.
