See here I thought all that stuff was kinda normal. When we picked up Paxton a year ago we could not take him out of the orphanage or guest house. We took custody after the family visit and aside from walking the half block from the big kid part of the orphanage down to the guest house, he didn't go outside our agency's walls except for the visa appointment and going to the airport. We were told before we left that this was going to become standard and that families not staying at the guesthouse could not take custody until the day they were leaving Ethiopia, and we were not to go anywhere with the children.
I find it a bit odd that this is only being brought to other agencies now. My agency can't be the only one that established this as a rule within the last year of knowing it was an issue.
