A touching appeal asking for help in finding her relatives was posted online by 13-year-old Elizaveta Lytka. The girl said that her mother abandoned her and her younger brother Nikita with complete strangers. Liza's father, who has had another family for a long time, responded to Liza's appeal and took the girl to his place in early August. After some time, the grandmother also claimed her rights to her grandchildren. And the other day, the mother showed up. 30-year-old Maria claims that relatives stole her son and daughter while she was earning money and trying to provide for the children's future. A mother's trick to save her children or a deception for financial gain? Journalists from "It Affects Everyone" found another of Maria's sons - 9-year-old Ilya.
