Congo: 4 milioni di bambini abbandonati. Aumentate del 90% le adozioni internazionali, ma non bastano. “Abbiamo bisogno di famig

Questo è l’appello che ci giunge dalla Repubblica Democratica del Congo.

Si lavora freneticamente e contro il tempo per tentare di dare una famiglia al maggior numero possibile di bambini abbandonati, ma la situazione è veramente drammatica. Gli orfanotrofi nella sola città di Kinshasa, monitorati dalle équipe locali di Ai.Bi., sono più di 100 e, quasi ogni mese, ne spuntano di nuovi.

L’adozione internazionale non può essere la soluzione per l’enorme problema dell’infanzia abbandonata della Repubblica Democratica del Congo, ma è comunque una chance, che può essere data a qualche centinaia di minori, specialmente per i casi più urgenti.

D’altra parte, l’adozione nazionale non è ancora sviluppata e nonostante gli sforzi che le organizzazioni internazionali stanno compiendo in tale direzione, rimangono ancora troppi minori senza alcun futuro, se non la dura strada.

Ai.Bi., che opera nel paese africano da pochissimo tempo, sta impegnando molte energie per tentare di dare risposte concrete all’emergenza abbandono: nel 2012 le adozioni internazionali curate da Ai.Bi. sono aumentate quasi del 90%, passando dalle 17 coppie del 2011 alle 32 di quest’anno, ma non bastano!

The behaviour of our 'child protection' system is a growing international scandalConcerned by my reporting on how our “child protection” system has gone off the rails, one of my readers, David Phipps of Witney, wrote about it to his MP, David Cameron. As Mr Phipps records on his Witterings of Witney blog, the PM replied that he was aware of my articles but that they give “a very misleading picture” of our care system. I may occasionally single out a case where “a wrong decision” was taken, but he wanted to assure his disbelieving constituent that such mistakes are “exceptionally rare”.Among those rather better informed, and far less complacent, about what our social workers and courts get up to than Mr Cameron are a growing number of shocked foreign observers.

Slovak Blog: For pregnant children nezdvihli officials of ass or phone

For pregnant children nezdvihli officials of ass or phone

I have information that the bearers of famous names and functions visited orphanages and the children chosen for intercountry adoption. These children then a very interesting circumstances went beyond the boundaries of our country. Most of them have never been contacted with domestic applicants for adoption. Although the law commands. The following children from Slovakia no longer interested. Although the law prescribes.

Well someone - specifically journal is interested in practices relating to the financing of these transactions.

opaque apparatus consisting of the right people in the right places ensure that they did not see the fingers. Coverage everywhere reigning injustice and justice sales have never been held accountable, although it probably should rot in jail. Can you imagine that in U.S. ports were sold black slaves. But you can not imagine that in the middle of the twenty-first century Europe someone selling small children. So read.

It was in the year 2008. Two little girls were deported beyond our state. No, not exaggerating. They were packed and relegated. Not entitled to any contact with people who love and care for them.

10 Reasons To Adopt From Bulgaria

10 Reasons To Adopt From Bulgaria

10/22/2012

Michele L. Jackson, J.D.

During my time in the Bulgarian orphanages and working in Bulgaria, I was able to observe many benefits in the Bulgarian adoption process. While Bulgaria has not seen the popularity of international adoption like Russian adoptions and Ukrainian adoptions, I find that it has numerous benefits that are often overlooked.

Top 10 benefits to adopting from Bulgaria:

France delays debate on gay
marriage and adoption, amid mounting opposition





PARIS — France is delaying debate on a draft law
authorizing gay marriage, as the government grapples with increasingly vocal
opposition to the idea.


The legalization of same-sex marriages and adoption was one of the most
contentious points in Socialist President Francois Hollande’s election manifesto
earlier this year.













Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault first named Oct. 31 as the date when
government ministers would present the law, insisting there would be no
backtracking.


But his office said Friday that this date has been pushed back to Nov. 7. And
the debate in parliament is now expected to last until January.


On Thursday, France’s Chief Rabbi Gilles Bernheim joined other religious
leaders in opposing the plans, while more than 1,200 French mayors and their
deputies have signed a petition protesting them.

Adoptie uit Afrikaanse landen onder de loep

Adoptie uit Afrikaanse landen onder de loep

Onjo 18 oktober 2012

Tweede Kamerlid Jeroen Recourt (PvdA) stelt Kamervragen aan de staatssecretaris van veiligheid en justitie over adoptie uit Afrikaanse landen. Dit doet hij naar aanleiding van de uitzending van Argos ‘Adoptie een markt van corruptie en geluk’.

‘Je ziet toch dat adoptie, wat op zichzelf goed voor het kind en de adoptie ouders kan zijn, heel snel verwordt tot kinderhandel. En dat is een van de vreselijkste misdrijven die er kunnen plaatshebben. Ik ben er erg van geschrokken. Er moet wat gebeuren,’ zo reageerde Recourt in de uitzending van Argos op het onderzoek dat het radioprogramma deed.

In de Argos reportage kwam naar voren dat de adoptiemarkt zeer gevoelig is voor corruptie. Kinderen worden geroofd en er wordt voor kinderen betaald. De biologische ouders begrijpen niet altijd  wat adoptie precies inhoudt, wat voor schrijnende taferelen zorgt. Argos berichtte dat adoptie-organisaties steeds meer uitwijken naar landen in Afrika waar het makkelijker is gezonde jonge kinderen te krijgen.

Staatssecretaris Teeven nam recentelijk maatregelen. Hij verbood adopties uit Oeganda. Recourt is het daar mee eens. ‘Dat vind ik een hele goede stap. Er is eigenlijk geen andere keuze,’ aldus het Tweede Kamerlid. Recourt is echter van mening dat er meer moet gebeuren en stelt Teeven daar nu Kamervragen over. Lees de vragen van Recourt hier.

67,000 Children in State Care in Romania

67,000 Children in State Care in Romania
Published by Stefan Darabus in the category Blog
In 2012, we have more than 67,000 children in state care. Over 9,000 are in institutions, 18,000 in residential, family-based care, 19,000 in foster care, and 21,000 in simple family placements.
In the last 7 – 8 years, the childcare system entries are equal to the exits. Which means that, as youngsters leave care, little ones come in. That is due to the lack of programmes to prevent child separation from families. The admissions of children in care (that is, tearing them apart from their families, from their parents) will only stop when parents are encouraged to stay with their children. In most situations, the causes of separation are related to poverty, and the lack of support for vulnerable families.
