Here's part 2! We, too, watched the Max series "The Curious Case of Natalia Grace", about the Barnett family's adoption of a little girl from Ukraine. Related by some to the film The Orphan, in which an adult woman poses as a young orphaned girl to prey on vulnerable families, this case called Natalia's true age and identity into question. Take no one's word for truth (except maybe ours).
