85 episodes of tear jerking craziness. The kid who plays Malek / Torne is amazing. The rest of cast is telebovela-ish. One exception is Shola, a very real character by wonderful Gonca Vuslateri. You feel her pain in every scene. All in all I'd recommend it if you like the genre. You know what, maybe also if you don't know the genre... worst thing that can happen is that you'll cry 😂😂

It has changed my whole perspective on motherhood.

Just because you gave birth doesn't mean that you are a good mother.

It showed me what motherhood can look like! With no genetics shared.ita an emotional roller coster!!!

Every episode became was full of tears and the child who played meleke is talented .she played it so well to the point I thought it was fr.

I loved the ending tho.but the whole series was soo special to my heart as it showed me how beautiful love can be and how love. Can be painful. At the same time and how the love of mother to her child is nothing to play around and it's beautiful.

This series had me at the edge of my seat and it was very well done. The timing of when to be in the present and bringing up the past. If I could give it an award right now I would. Beautiful way to capture all the type of mothers out here in the world. Thank you for this production.

This soap opera is up and down and all around. Again, and again, over and over.

There is one totally absurd situation after another and lots of incredibly hysterical characters. There's also too many sub stories typical of soap operas and constant flash backs. You would have to be a soap opera fanatic to put up with the ridiculous plot.

It's much too long. I had to fast forward half of it to get through it because I wanted to see what happened to the young girl.

The only thing going for this series is very good acting. The child actress won awards for it. She is excellent.

Another reviewer is right. This should have been a 2-hour movie!

I give it 4 starts only for the acting alone.

This is a very emotional family drama which will bring tears to many viewers. The story of a mistreated child who is saved from her torture by a temporary teacher in her school. The development of a strong deep bond of mother and child between both of them is mesmerizing to watch. Beren Gokyildiz as Melek acts amazingly well and is the solid staying reason why I continue with this series. The plot has many holes and can be unbelievable at times but the acting by the entire cast is stellar.
