Craig Juntunen, the most dangerous man nin Adopton Land

Speaking of Gladney., as I did the other day…

…guess who’s shilling for Dame Edna!.

None other than the most dangerous man in AdoptionLand today, Craig Juntunen, founder and president of Both Ends Burning. and producer of Stuck, a film on the “orphan crisis” constructed to make your heart bleed and fill BEB’s pockets full. of sob story money for child harvesting..

On Wednesday October 9, Juntunen will keynote the annual New York Metropolitan Gladney Family Association fundraiser/cocktail party at the University Club in midtown. . (Gladneyators drink? WWHSD? What would the home studier do?)

The first in a series of programs on searching, with a focus on search angels, birth searches, and the difference between domestic and intercountry adoptees in finding their own truths.

Join Lynelle Long of Intercountry Adoptee Voices (ICAV) and Annette O’Connell of Adoptees United for an introduction to search, not only for US-born adoptees but also for intercountry adoptees. We’ll discuss as many questions that you have, plus a few that we have already:

What should I know about the process even if I wanted to search?

What are the differences between a domestic (US-based) search and one involving a specific country and intercountry adoption?

What’s a Search Angel and how do I find one? What do they charge, or aren’t they supposed to be free?

Our fellow journalists at Le Monde Afrique , Laureline Savoye and Morgane Le Cam, have investigated for five years, with the cooperation of Kaourou Magassa, journalist for TV5 Monde, on the association Rayon de soleil de l'enfant etranger (RDSEE), the one of the largest approved adoption organizations in France and which is said to have been behind the adoption of more than 7,000 children around the world in the 1990s and against the wishes of biological families.

Mali, the Central African Republic, Madagascar, Haiti, Peru, Romania. So many countries affected by potential child thefts in the 1990s.

According to two journalists at Le Monde Afrique, the French organization RDSEE is behind the theft and adoption of children around the world.

A real child trafficking that would finally interest the French justice

On September 6, 2022, the Paris court finally called for the opening of an investigation for "concealment of fraud" after the filing of a complaint in June 2020 by nine French people adopted in Mali against their adoption organization and their former correspondent in Bamako: RDSEE and Danielle Boudault.

“Little is known about the course of a long-term foster placement,” says project leader Mieke Spek. Time to investigate long-term foster care as an alternative to adoption. That is why the research project 'Distance in Connection' has been started.

What if you are unintentionally pregnant and cannot take care of the child? "There is still a taboo in the Netherlands about giving up a child," says Mieke, researcher at the HAN Research Group Active Factors in Youth and Parenting Aid. In recent years, more attention has been paid to so-called distance mothers, mothers who had to give their child up for adoption. Their experiences and suffering went unacknowledged for many years. But adoption isn't the only option for unintentionally pregnant women. A long-term foster placement is also a possibility. There is not much knowledge about long-term foster care in that situation and the experience of (foster) parents and children with this. Mieke: "We also want to let these women and children have their say. Give them a voice. We have little insight into how this form of foster care works, so it's time to investigate this with the research project 'Distance in Connection'."

THE REASON: RECOMMENDATION

Every year, about 60 unintentionally pregnant women consider giving up their child. Of these, a small proportion are considering long-term foster care. This was also apparent from an earlier study ' Mother in one fell swoop, and again not ' by Radboud University in collaboration with Fiom about distance for adoption between 1998 and 2007. Among the 200 distance files there were already dozens of files of women who had been placed in foster care. passed over. This research resulted in the recommendation to map out the opportunities and bottlenecks when choosing a foster family. “In practice, we notice that there is only limited knowledge about the option of foster care after an unintended pregnancy,” says Sophie Bolt, researcher at Fiom. Fiom is one of the agencies that guides women with an intention to give up for adoption. Mieke adds: “With more knowledge and insights, even better information can be provided to unintentionally pregnant women.”

MANY QUESTIONS ABOUT FOSTER CARE

With the support of the EU Phare programme, CNA has implemented one of the most successful “social campaigns” that has been seen in Romania.

Many people are familiar with the slogan Don’t let your child be educated by the TV. According to an Omnibus Survey carried out by IMAS, the TV spots have been broadcast over 2000 times on the main Romanian TV channels.

Radio spots, outdoor banners, newsletters and brochures for adults and children have also been produced as part of this project.

The purpose of the campaign is to inform parents about the risks of “abandoning” their children in front of the TV. The full name of the project is Enhancement and Development of the Professional Expertise of the Romanian Audio Visual Sector (RO 2004/016-722.03.15.01)

In addition to the awareness campaign, CNA’s Phare project also implemented training sessions for CNA staff, organised conferences and study tours and commissionedmajor research studies.

Over six decades, a million ‘orphans’ were shipped to the West from around the world. Now many are finding their past was a fabrication

Anja Pedersen-Scholl, 47, has always known she was adopted. Her East Asian heritage stood out in Copenhagen where she arrived as a baby. What she didn't know is that she was smuggled out of South Korea on a dead child’s papers shortly after her birth.

Her natural father would spend much of the rest of his life uncertain of her fate.

“While we were looking into your file, we learned that your adoption paper was written quite differently from the true story”, admitted the Korean Social Service (KSS) in a letter sent to Pedersen-Scholl in 2009, shortly after she began investigating her heritage.

“We understand you’d be very confused with this different information and feel sorry about that.”
