Who Will Love My Children? is a 1983 American made-for-television biographical film based on the life of Lucile Fray. Lucile Fray was diagnosed with cancer in 1952 and wanted to find suitable homes for her ten children, since she felt her husband could not properly care for them. Prior to her death, she succeeded. The film was directed by John Erman, written by Michael Bortman, and starred Ann-Margret in her first television film. It was originally broadcast on ABC.

The same evening as its original broadcast, February 14, 1983, the children of Lucile Fray appeared on That's Incredible!, an ABC program. The film was remade in Turkish in 1984 as Yavrularım, in Malayalam in 1993 as Akashadoothu[1] (which went on to be remade in Telugu as Matru Devo Bhava), in Kannada as Karulina Koogu, in Marathi as Chimani Pakhare, and in Hindi as Tulsi.
