Just to clarify...Kaz adoptions and Russian adoptions are handled completely differently. This is a Kaz adoption...they are required to spend at least 6 weeks in country. Russia is two trips, 1st about 1 week...second depends on the region the child is in...but may be up to 3 to 4 weeks...but many are only about a week to 10 days.
And I have to ask....was no one as offended as I was by the father's statement regarding the birthmom on page 5? I was personally very offended by his comments. Hopefully he learns to understand the adoption triad before his daughter is old enough to be hurt by his comments. I did enjoy the article except for that comment.
