[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I volunteer at an orphanage in Kiev. There are many orphans who are packed into overcrowded, hideous conditions now because so many (orphan) children were evacuated from orphanages in the areas of the country that were destroyed by the war (which is ongoing). The orphanages in Kiev were already underfunded and understaffed, but now it is much worse with the influx of war orphans. I don't understand why these kids/people don't get the same attention. I guess it isn't fashionable to adopt a Ukrainian war orphan. But so many kids here need help, and the world just isn't focusing on them.[/quote] I believe Americans are no longer allowed to adopt these children. Some were sent back when the Americans who adopted could not cope with the problems of these children.[/quote]
