Dropping international adoptions FAMILY | Agencies shut down their programs amid shifting attitudes and burdensome bureaucracy by Mary Jackson Posted 2/07/20, 04:43 pm Dave and Sabrina Bjornstom anxiously waited with 12 other couples from the United States in a sixth-story room in a government office building in Guangzhou, China. Suddenly someone shouted, “They’re coming!” Rushing to the windows, they saw a line of women—each holding a baby—walking toward the building. That day in 2004, the Bjornstroms cradled Katie, one of their two adopted daughters from China, for the first time. Countless parents share similar experiences. In 2004, international adoptions by U.S. couples peaked at 23,000. But that number plummeted to 4,000 in 2018, an 80 percent drop. Last month, Bethany Christian Services, the nation’s largest evangelical adoption agency, announced its international program will end next year when its accreditation expires. It is no longer accepting new applications. Kristi Gleason, vice president of global services at Bethany, said the organization did not base the decision on changes in international laws and practices. Rather, she noted it was “a reflection of our desire to serve children in their own communities” by helping establish foster and child welfare systems that emphasize reunification and in-country adoptions. Shifting attitudes about international adoptions have contributed to its sharp decline. #MothersOfArmenia #ArmenianBabiesSold
With Cara Helberg of now closed Across the World Adoptions in Ghana assessing how many poor black babies they could sell to their white clients . Shameful dirty trash |
But many agencies blame the U.S. State Department’s accrediting arm, which was established two years ago, for squeezing them out of the business. option At least 35 adoption service providers have canceled or relinquished their licenses, and 11 have had their licenses suspended since the federal government established the Intercountry Adoption Accreditation and Maintenance Entity (IAAME) in 2018. The number of licensed adoption service providers dropped to 125 from 278 in 2008.
Robin Sizemore, founder and executive director of Hopscotch Adoptions in High Point, N.C., said the IAAME levied false accusations against her agency, withheld information, and denied them due process. She hired two lawyers to refute State Department complaints and filed separate complaints against the accrediting entity. Self-reporting is now “a full-time position [at Hopscotch],” Sizemore said. “It seems like [the State Department] came into this with a mandate to close as many agencies as possible.” Upon establishment, the IAAME added a $500 monitoring and oversight fee for adoptive families and increased accreditation costs for adoption agencies. Dont worry Robin it will be awhile before you are closed down. First you have to spend $200,000 in legal fees with corrupt low class attorney's that will lie, cheat, and steal to try and keep your doors open. Remember what I said to you in 2011 when we walked out of the mediation hearing "iTS OVER" and your own adoptive families squeeled on you. Poetic Justice. You shameful woman, how about some redemption and unseal the records at Carolina Adoption Services and Hopscotch from 1996 to 2019 for the 24 birth mothers of Armenia who want to know where their children are that you stole from them. How about It Robin? I can arrange it for you since you are not allowed to step foot in Armenia --- I am sure I can facilitate your travel to Armenia with the names of the odars that purchased Armenian Babies. HERE ARE SOME OF THESE MOTHERS it even made it into the Daily Mail in England and no.....you will not be allowed to blame this on Italy. The 24 Armenian mothers protest daily till you unseal the records and disclose which odars purchased their children. You dirty white trash bitch its finally over. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7827889/Armenia-shocked-baby-selling-network-obstetrician-orphanage-head-arrested.html
UNSEAL THE ADOPTION RECORDS ROBIN
THESE ARMENIAN MOTHERS WANT THEIR
BABIES BACK ...DO THEY LOOK GRATEFUL TO YOU?
Daniel Nehrbass, president of Nightlight Christian Adoptions, said his agency’s fees, paid over four years, jumped from $14,000 under the previous accrediting agency, the Council on Accreditation, to $309,000 with the IAAME. Nightlight’s clients have absorbed the cost. International adoptions now cost up to $50,000, depending on the country and the amount of travel required. “It’s not surprising that other agencies would decide this is not a strategic place to be involved,” Nehrbass said. In 2018, a group of 80 agencies, called Save Adoptions, filed a complaint with the State Department’s inspector general claiming the IAAME was unfit to operate under international Hague Convention requirements. The inspector general denied the complaint, and so far lobbying efforts with Congress and the White House have not succeeded. The State Department argues the IAAME is needed to protect children and families. In recent decades, reports of corruption and abuse have tainted international adoptions. Many countries, including China, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Kazakhstan, Romania, Russia, and South Korea have banned or cut back on international adoptions, often citing child abuse. Adoption agencies argue these instances are rare and that they can maintain ethical practices without shuttering international adoptions entirely. The United Nations estimates 140 million orphans exist worldwide. Nehrbass said there is room for numerous solutions to address the crisis. “Since the beginning, international adoption has been a calling that God puts on certain people’s hearts,” he said. “I don’t think that’s disappearing.” BULLSHIT that UN estimate has no basis of fact 140 million orphans in the world? Seriously that is the same marketing mantra used by International Adoption agencies 10 years ago. International Adoption was a $6 billion industry 1/3 fueled by American money why don't these parents who spend upwards of $30-50,000 to adopt a child overseas adopt one of the 140,000 American children sitting in Foster Care who are paper ready for Fost to Adopt? 1 in 4 children in America lives in poverty. Use the money for building the economy, schools, and jobs for people so they can CARE for their children. Shamelessly 100 American foster care children are adopted by foreigners every year.
Adopted by white mothers, Robin is a racist picking on people of other ethnicities and poor families that cannot pay for a child but in Robins eyes should be with a white mother who has money / job.
Guess what Robin? you don't make that choice on our children you will be held accountable. These photos are not copyrighted they are on the internet for anyone to copy, distribute or get disgusted with. OPEN UP THE RECORDS !!!!
To BENNET KELLEY who we know reads this blog regularly ...please note you will no longer be tolerated in Los Angeles or in any court room in California. Armenians of Southern California the white trash Bennet Kelley hired by Robin Sizemore to silence me about Robin's purchasing of babies in Armenia has harmed me, my family and the Armenian Community of Fresno trying humorously to harm not only my reputation but cause problems in my community . His wife's name is Wanda J. Rudd (ugly wash rag) that poses as his process serving - serving paperwork that has not even been filed at any courthouse or was since amended, striked or denied. He lives on 34th St. in Santa Monica and walks his cute white dog every morning at various dog parks. You can also reach Bennet Kelley at his offices which he rents a cubicle at:

"Kevork" Yacoubian the next time you believe these pathetic liars that someone is attacking "SOAR" and the falsity of Robin or her paid attorneys remember your conversation with Public Defender Cathi Pattinson and please note your reputation with SOAR is in jeopardy because of Robin's involvement in the NC Chapter. Its no secret that many members have walked away because of your explosive temperment and demeanor. SOAR is largely odars and there is a reason for that. Orphanages will be closing in Armenia over the next 3-5 years. You are more than welcome to help our groups ARS, Paros Foundation, Aid Beyond Borders and even the Armenian community that raises funds DIRECTLY for Sister A. and actually works on projects that lift the economy of Armenia so no child is left in an orphanage because their parents are not working or have food. I have the copies of your correspondence to me, but I know you wouldn't want to hurt SOAR any more than what Robin Sizemore has done. Anyone that matters in Los Angeles donates to the Armenian Orphanage fund of Los Angeles. Please join us for the projects that MATTER to Armenians .
Its time to cut the bad baggage away from SOAR
Remember when LaLa uped the price of your adoption when you were in country?......where did the extra money go?...ask Robin she is a pro at it and making $2 million + over a 5 year span (that she reports) The best attorney to work through adoption challenges in Armenia is Irene Steffas and she is well respected in Armenia. She has helped several people, and last we checked is also an ASP
