Why doesn't Russia stop this if it cares so much about the children? Is is a known fact that many of the children in these rings were kidnapped from orphanages! And there are children in the orphanages who were "rescued" from these pornography rings. And many of these "rescued" children are put up for adoption and their "history" is never given to the adoptive parents. Then Russia criticizes American parents when these children cannot function in society. Russia BLAMES these parents for the disfunctioning of these poor children who were so terribly violated while in Russia! It disgusts me how Putin and his official can sit on their high horses and act like they have done NOTHING wrong!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1196534838547373497.post-85804563011792186832013-06-30T03:39:25.342-05:002013-06-30T03:39:25.342-05:00good .www.kuhnishkaf.rugood .www.kuhnishkaf.ruAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07474319303066360510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1196534838547373497.post-35189516109820093062013-06-29T18:12:17.369-05:002013-06-29T18:12:17.369-05:00A number of them have been adopted by European fam...A number of them have been adopted by European families. At least 3 that I know of have been adopted to Italy, the others were adopted to France, Portugal, Germany, Spain and Ireland. I don't know if Russia is prioritizing them because they were supposed to be adopted by American families or because Russia feels that there will be fewer questions and fewer American families pushing to end the ban if those children are no longer available. <br /><br />Yes, it's good that the children are finding homes, including children with special needs. 3 of the children adopted were HIV+, 2 had CP. There were also older children adopted as well and sibling groups. At the same time it's heartbreaking for the families who had met them and considered them their children who have now lost them forever. <br /><br />Hopefully at some point adoptions will re-open to American families. It's just heartbreaking to know that those families who are fighting so hard to end the ban won't be able to bring their children home. Hopefully their fight will allow other families to bring children home.

A ...Astakhov is lying of course. No surprise here.<br /><br />A few of those 250 children did go to Russian families, one of them just yesterday (Marat). As far as I know there were not adopted, more like fostered (although Russian foster family is considered permanent placement unless biological parents show up or the foster parents themselves adopt this child).<br /><br />A couple was adopted to Canada and France.<br /><br />Maybe a few returned to bio families.<br /><br />No, the Russian government doesn't care.<br /><br />I had to leave my son in the care of my mother in Russia, and although he is not in an institution, it pains me to know that I will not be able to bring him home before another 2 or 3 years pass. He is not in an institution, he has a caring grandma, but he is getting discriminated against and emotionally abused everywhere outside the home and a tight circle of close friends - at school that threatens to expel him for his special needs, store, bank, doctor's. <br />It's not like that everywhere in Russia, but certainly a lot. <br />And if they treat a special needs child with a family this way, what can we expect when it comes to children with no family, no grandma to protect them. Those children are trash in the eyes of the government.
