OT - Dr phil
There is a mother on that adopted 2 children from the Ukraine. Watch it if you can. Adopted or biological, I can't understand this.

She would like to send her daughter 'back' to the Ukraine after 6 years bc she can't bond with her. The child apparently has a diagnosed condition. Story (as is typical for the show) is more complicated than they lay out on the onset...but how could anyone want to send a child back???
That segment is over. Basically the mom needs help and support to deal with her daughter. It is sad. As he said this child didn't choose to be in an ophanage and ignored as a baby. It was just a startling reminder of how impt it is to really consider decisions. In retrospect, I am seeing what a good job our agency did with preparing us (as a FAMILY...us and the kids) for adoption. They were very responsible in this area.

Our agency made us watch a video like this before we completed our adoption. The family did end up sending there daughter back to Russia. It was heartbreaking but they wanted families to know ahead of time how attachment issues can tear your family apart and if you are not prepared to deal with them a poor innocent child will pay the consequences.
Very sad.
