  • All I'm saying is that there are good and bad side of adopting Children from foreign country, cuz you do not know if person is human trafficing or behind certain political motives

  • When working with the Chinese government, which all US agencies are required to do, you have to ask, "what would motivate them to 'traffic' (buying babies from poor mothers) infants into the US?" There are more than 4 million girls in orphanages alone, it's a crisis.

  • More...

    They will spend the most formative years of their lives neglected - a condition that creates sensory integration and attachment issues. When an adoptive family is united with one of these orphans - not trafficked, but wasting in orphanages - the world is created for that little girl. She will be rescued from a later life of sex trade, meaningless factory work and psychological and learning disabilities.

    So all that to say, your opinion is appreciated, though perhaps not well informed.

    Cheers!

  • The music is from the Beijing Angelic Choir. It is a children's choir. All of their music is stunning with both eastern and western flavors, stylistically.

    Thanks for asking.

  • @thanks88 It doesn't matter how those babies ended up in an orphanage. They now need a family that would love and take care of them.

  • We have 4 bio kids and are looking into adopting some hard to place.

  • I don't know about whether it is specifically for bonding or physical recovery, but I think that if you adopt and a company doesn't allow maternity leave to be with your baby you should call a lawyer. They better not discriminate between a bio and an adoptive mom in that way.

  • precious!!

  • such an adorable daughter!! asian elders always say that the child has borrowed another women's womb to be born but she is truly yours. God bless you and yours.

  • Your family is so beautiful...god bless

  • Can someone please tell me whether maternity leave (in countries where it applies normally) covers adoption.

    I suppose the answer essentially deals with whether leave is usually for physical recovery of the mother and or bodning. Which is it?

  • make sure she learns how to speak her native language

  • I can only imagine what that moment must feel like.

  • what a wonderful video! your little girl is so beautiful!
