Ian's Mom,
I believe photolisting of Kaz children is illegal, same as photolisting Ukrainian or Russian children. As such, I would tell to run far and hard from any agency that participates in illegal activities. I would not for 1 moment jeopardize my adoption or my heart with any agency that I could not trust. My personal belief is that if an agency cannot be trusted to follow the laws of the child's country what gives me any indication that they have any higher respect for our own laws?

If the child is special needs, part of a large sibling group (3+), or older (8yo+), there may be a good chance of adopting that child. But this little boy doesn't sound like he meets any of those criteria so this may well be a "bait and switch" situation which is definitely not in your best interests.

Find a reputable agency and then wait for a referral that matches your critera.
