@mihanich Russia is not more popular than China or Korea. Americans adopt from countries where there are available children and where the government allows adoption by foreigners. People here are drawn to Russia in part because the children look similar to American children. But also, because the orphanages are so horrible there and they want to rescue a child from a hopeless future. We don't have orphanages here where kids rot because they are deemed undesirable.

@Charles2337 that's because some single guys (not you) are creeps. So because of those perverts, a guy with honest intentions doesn't have a chance. It's unfortunate.

As an adoptee from Russia, this is the most touching story i have seen.
Aaah see !, I always knew it !! American people are far from all bad !!! They love kids and family as much as anyone else. So many couples out there just wishing a child, to raise, love, share joy and share their life and legacy with. And so many children in need of all that to !!! Adoption is a great thing

No one should be treated as a cast off. People with disabilities can do amazing things if they are given the chance. I would love to adopt some day and I would like to adopt more than once if I could. At least one time I would like to adopt an older child from about 3-7. Everyone deserves a chance at a good life. It is our right as humans.
