As a child I lived for a time in Seoul, South Korea. As an adult, I'll return to Seoul with my husband to adopt a child. This is our journey back to Seoul.

No Jail Time in Adoption Scam

How can this be? How can there be no jail time for these people that stole children from American Samoa? Where is the movement to return these children to their natural parents?

This blackens the eyes of adoptive parents everywhere. If you were to discover that your child had been stolen from their birth parents, why wouldn't you immediately begin the process to reunite them? Yes, incredibly painful but is the desperation to have a child so great that you would delude yourself into thinking that you had no obligation to be accountable to this child?

Congratulations to Mark Nyberg, the ONLY parent that is taking the steps to return his adopted daughter to her birth family. The rest of the parents seem to be sputtering around talkng about how the kids are better off here but they can still have contact with their birth families. Disgusting...
