Maybe I am speaking of something I should not be talking about, but I will anyway. After my first visit, the facilitator in Moscow asked how the baby reacted to me. He was very pleasantly surprised to find out that he would go to me on the first day. He was surprised at this because men are very new to most adopted children. It was told to me that almost all of the caretakers in orphanages in Russia are women. It may take some time for the children to realize that men are OK.
(This is just what I have been told, with absolutley no personal experience on this issue other than the visits)
