It was filmed mostly in 1997 and 1998.

She went there and her family there looked at her like a business or lottery ticket. That may be their way but there is no way she was prepared for that. She may have been naïve or ill prepared but she was not bad. She wanted to go and meet them and develop a relationship with them while they wanted her to support them from day 1. As a military wife I can assure you that she would not have had a great deal of money and the gifts she gave and the expense of the trip would have been a great deal of money for her.

Nothing she could ever do would satisfy her family in Vietnam. No amount of money or effort ever would have been enough. I think Heidi made a wise choice focusing on her own husband and children. Good luck in the future Heidi and know your story will help other prepare for their journeys.

Is there no compassion or empathy left in people’s heart that this Vietnamese family needs to be scorned? Heidi might not be equipped with the knowledge that the Savior Jesus Christ sacrificed for her and paid her ransom for her sins. He asked us to help carry each others burdens. What a lost opportunity for this young privileged woman.

The shows your lack of crossclutural understanding. Families support each other financially in Asia because there is no government support. If they did not they would starve. Your imperialistic attitude is very putrid.
