Chantilly mom ships teen daughter to Siberia. Two years later, she’s still there. Really.

Well, at least she isn't pregnant yet. Or if she got pregnant she figured out how to get an abortion. Many girls in her situation would have found someone to knock her up and take care of her...I wonder if this is how her Mom's life played out.

Did anyone see the article on her in People Mag? Page 86 of the latest issue (with Adam Levine on the cover.) I was just flipping along and bam, there it is! Had no idea it was national news.

I could not have said it better. I'm shocked at the small few of you who are being supportive of the brat of a daughter.

Are you expecting her to sing the praises of her long lost mother?
We do not know the true story of her boyfriend or why the mother sent he away.

She had to start her life over again with nothing. Most likely will stay in poverty the rest of her life. Maybe she will forget that she ever had a mother

I do not see how the mother-daughter will ever have any kind of relationship. The mother most definitely thought she was a threat to her marriage, and her husband most likely did not want her either

What I do not understand is why did she not come back? She still had her green card and could have legally come back.

All she needs is a flight ticket. She has the green card and a valid passport.
Mothers consent is not needed

Huh? How do you know that? Why wouldn't she already have it, considering all the publicity from the press?

No, I think her green card needs renewal and mom has to sign. Think I read that somewhere.

does anyone know what happened to her?

There has been an update on WUSA9; apparently one of her stepdads came through for her, and she is now living with him and his family in Morroco: http://www.wusa9.com/story/news/local/2014/10/21/sofia-petrova-reunites-man-raised-her/17623861/

Meh - in ther interview, she comes of as:

-just as manipulative as she was when she was sent home by her mom.

I don't believe her. Let her stay there until she grows up a little. She does not sound 17; she sounds like a spoiled, manipulative 13 year old.

And grand theft is serious - even if you believe she didn't do the other crimes.

I am so glad she found someone that can love her and care for her. Apparently this man raised her and didn't blink an eye to take care of her again. Speaks volumes in comparesing to the mother who shipped her off at 15.

I find it bizarre that she has been living in the U.S. since she was two years old and in thirteen years (until she turned 15) her mother did not see it fit to procure American citizenship for her daughter. I got tons of Russian friends who married Americans, and once they got to the U.S. with their kids from the first marriage, both mom and kids were U.S. citizens as quickly as the law allowed. Believe me, it does NOT take 13 years. Assuming her mom married an American, she would have been eligible for her citizenship three years later, and that means she and the kid. Why didn't that happen??

sounds like child abandonement.
the authorities in Russia could have charged her with that and asked for deportation
