Cabbage Patch
The Media scene in V is for Vendetta is the clue
Oprah did everything to help her ‘secret son’ in the 1990s
My no-grounding-in-reality-at-all assumption: Calvin Mitchell believes he's Oprah adopted son because his parents led him to believe that.
This little boy hands Oprah some soda and she's touched by him. Maybe he did it by himself. Maybe his family puts him up to it. But Oprah decides to save him. And what does his family do, but sabotage everything Oprah tries to do for them. On what planet is 'we can't get up in the morning' an excuse not to go to work let alone school -- and that's without Oprah?
Even if the kid was having a problem adjusting to his new surroundings, that's when his parents have to step in to advocate for him, talk some sense into him or approach Oprah that things are not working, instead of just letting their kid skip out of school.
The tragedy is that Oprah proves you can't buy someone out of their conditions. All the help she provided to the family, including getting his mama a job (did she really want to work?) don't amount to anything if someone doesn't want to get out of their condition. Or if you are tone-deaf to how they want to get out of their condition. Maybe they resented Oprah's help. I don't know.
All I do know is: we are our own worst enemies. And that goes for Oprah, too.
This dude took Jew tabloid money to ambush Oprah. Is she gonna end up dead like the last black male foundling to reconnect with foster famous mama (RIP Whitney and Bobbi Kristina)?
