Russian Girls ?

Question:

I have a question what will happen to the two 4 year old Russian girls now, what is happening, will they go back to Russia, will they be put in foster care while aparents are investigated, will they stay with aparents? The only info I have is what I’ve read on this news group and I’m wondering what would happen next, anyone know ? Ann —                   "To thine own self be true"

Response:

Ann, the prospective parents are Arizona residents so I may know a bit more than others … or maybe not.   What I have been told and what I’ve read in the newspapers is this:  The prospective adoptive parents are back in Arizona and the girls are in foster care in New York.  The agency is getting a great many dirty looks and comments and to my knowledge haven’t spoken on the subject. Neighbors who knew the Thornes have appeared on television, etc. to tell what a nice couple they are and how INCREDIBLE these allegations are. State and private adoption officials have also come out in force to say that such things happen — especially with post-institutionalized adoptions — but that we shouldn’t be alarmed, the system is working as it should and all the loose ends will soon be neatly tied.  (Imo, iow to the media:  Pulleze, go find another story and let us deal with this in peace.) Wish I knew more but I’m trying to recover from massive indigestion before I go looking for more upsettedness.  (We have, here in AZ, what I hope is more than our share of "unusual" adoptions.)         Sue T. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – I have a question what will happen to the two 4 year old Russian girls now, what is happening, will they go back to Russia, will they be put in foster care while aparents are investigated, will they stay with aparents?
