A buddy from college who has also adopted from Ukraine found this video and shared the link on her blog. It is a must-see and explains itself. Click HERE. There has been some discussion regarding the facts that are stated in the video regarding what happens to the children when they graduate at age 16. Some areas in Ukraine are much worse than others, but the government has recognized the problem and is working on it. It is still true that while the government is trying to put supports in place, many kids are graduating and ending up homeless, jobless, and forced to live lives of crime and prostitution.
Welcome
This blog is mostly just a journal of things that I want to eventually scrapbook. If I keep the journaling here, then I won't lose it. Actual papers tend to get lost in my house. Things on the computer - especially online - are much easier to find. :-)
