"We shall, in this moment, 3.152 children. It's hard to say whether many or few, but it's important to know that only 20 percent are aged under five. Ages largest special problems automatically imply that children come because they spent more time in the social protection system. The state, more or foster care centers brings some problems, some slowdown in development - emotional, cognitive or behavior. So these children come with various problems and with an accumulation of problems that parents who want to adopt should know. At the moment, the parent is informed and the information that is transmitted is more likely to induce you to answers on what they would like him. I think it should be changed slightly this procedure and I think parents should be informed about the situation of these children, "said Gabriela Coman. She added that at present, 1,610 families are approved to adopt."Of the total national adoptable children, are in phase matching theoretical, 19.7 percent were aged between 0 and 5 years old, clinically healthy and have no developmental delays, and 16.1 percent are enrolled in degree disability and mental retardation presented. Nationally, 1,610 families are approved to adopt. Of these, 1,475 are approved to adopt a child, 133 were certified for two children and two families can adopt three children, "said President ANPDCA. Gabriela Coman said at the same event, that of the 3152 children who were adopted, 335 are entrusted for adoption, 300 are matched practical and theoretical 2,517 are matched. "Of the total number of children in matching theory, 738 were between one and five years, 1,063 were between six and 10 years and 716 between 11 and 17 years," said President ANPDCA. Coman has also stated that, until now, were given 17 international adoptions and there are still 31 requests from mixed families, ie one parent is a foreign national, the other Romanian. Families and individuals are certified for international adoption in Canada (seven), France and Spain (five), Italy and Germany (four), USA (three), Sweden (second) and the Netherlands (one). "Of the 520 children adopted internationally, 36 had between one and five years, 264 were between six and ten years and 256 from 11 to 17 years," said President ANPDCA. Association President loves children, Simona Czudar, said that talks on adoption should always start from the interests of the children, pointing out that many of them, although real chance to be adopted, are refused because of their ethnicity. Simona Czudar announced that adoption of trusted organizations gathered in a National Federation for Adoption, the main objective of this structure is to increase standards of work in the field. Managing director of the Foundation SERA Romania, Bogdan Simion, said at the same conference, it would be necessary to rethink the way adoption is addressed as the target group structure has changed both in terms of age, and from the point of view of possible handicaps, making adoption of increasingly difficult. "In the years '97, '98, '99 we had many children in the system. Young children tend to become increasingly less and think it should be something that families better informed about the expectations they have of the source system. It should be better informed about what could adopt the system and I think that should matter more than what families want. I know from a previous study that over 95 percent of families in Romania shall want a little baby healthy. small child, healthy, getting an exception in the child protection system and maybe families should know this very well, to be informed, to know are children who can adopt, "said Bogdan Simion.

ANPDCA: Doar 20% dintre copiii adoptabili sunt mici ?i s?n?to?i. Familiile trebuie informate mai bine de Aurelia Alexa - Mediafax?tire Foto (1) Comentarii (0) Doar 20 la sut? dintre copiii declara?i adoptabili sunt s?n?to?i ?i mai mici de cinci ani, a declarat joi, la Conferin?a Na?ional? pentru Adop?ie, pre?edintele ANPDCA, Gabriela Coman, precizând c? persoanele care vor s? înfieze ar trebui s? fie mai bine informate despre profilul copiilor din sistem. Pre?edintele Autorit??ii Na?ionale pentru protec?ia Drepturilor copilului ?i Adop?ie, Gabriela Coman, a precizat c? în toat? ?ara sunt declara?i adoptabili 3.152 de copii, 520 dintre ei fiind adoptabili interna?ional. "Avem adoptabili, în acest moment, 3.152 de copii. E greu de spus dac? sunt mul?i sau pu?ini, dar e important de ?tiut c? numai 20 la sut? au vârsta sub cinci ani. Vârstele mai mari implic? automat ?i probleme speciale cu care copiii vin, pentru c? ei au stat mai mult în sistemul de protec?ie special?. Statul, mai mult în asisten?? maternal? sau în centre, le aduce anumite tulbur?ri, anumite încetiniri în evolu?ie - emo?ionale, cognitive sau de comportament. Deci ace?ti copii vin cu probleme diverse ?i cu un cumul de probleme pe care p?rin?ii care doresc s? adopte ar trebui s? le ?tie. În momentul de fa??, p?rintele este informat, îns? informa?ia care i se transmite este mai degrab? de natur? de a-i induce lui r?spunsuri referitoare la ce ?i-ar dori el. Cred c? ar trebui schimbat? pu?in aceast? procedur? ?i cred c? ar trebui informa?i p?rin?ii despre situa?ia acestor copii", a explicat Gabriela Coman. Ea a mai precizat c?, în prezent, 1.610 familii sunt atestate s? adopte. "Din num?rul total al copiilor adoptabili na?ional, afla?i în etapa de potrivire teoretic?, 19,7 la sut? au vârsta cuprins? între 0 ?i 5 ani, sunt clinic s?n?to?i ?i nu au întârzieri în dezvoltare, iar 16,1 la sut? sunt încadra?i în grad de handicap ?i prezint? retard mental. La nivel na?ional, 1.610 familii sunt atestate s? adopte. Dintre acestea, 1.475 sunt atestate s? adopte un copil, 133 au atestat pentru doi copii, iar dou? familii pot adopta câte trei copii", a mai spus pre?edintele ANPDCA. Gabriela Coman a precizat, la acela?i eveniment, c? din cei 3.152 de copii adoptabili, 335 sunt încredin?a?i în vederea adop?iei, 300 sunt în potrivire practic?, iar 2.517 sunt în potrivire teoretic?. "Din num?rul total de copii afla?i în potrivire teoretic?, 738 au între unu ?i cinci ani, 1.063 au între ?ase ?i 10 ani ?i 716 între 11 ?i 17 ani", a spus pre?edintele ANPDCA. Coman a mai precizat c?, pân? în prezent, au fost pronun?ate 17 adop?ii interna?ionale ?i mai exist? înc? 31 de solicit?ri venite din familii mixte, adic? unul din p?rin?i este cet??ean str?in, iar cel?lalt, român. Familiile ?i persoanele atestate pentru adop?ia interna?ional? sunt din Canada (?apte), Fran?a ?i Spania (câte cinci), Italia ?i Germania (câte patru), SUA (trei), Suedia (dou?) ?i Olanda (una). "Din cei 520 de copii adoptabili interna?ional, 36 au între unu ?i cinci ani, 264 au între ?ase ?i zece ani ?i 256 între 11 ?i 17 ani", a mai spus pre?edintele ANPDCA. Pre?edintele Asocia?iei Ador Copiii, Simona Czudar, a precizat c? discu?iile privind adop?ia ar trebui s? porneasc? întotdeauna de la interesul copiilor, subliniind c? foarte mul?i dintre ei, de?i au ?anse reale s? fie adopta?i, sunt refuza?i din cauza etniei. Simona Czudar a anun?at c? organiza?iile acreditate în domeniul adop?iei s-au reunit într-o Federa?ie Na?ional? pentru Adop?ie, principalul obiectiv al acestui structuri fiind cre?terea standardelor de lucru în domeniu. Directorul exectutiv al Funda?iei SERA România, Bogdan Simion, a declarat, la aceea?i conferin??, c? ar fi necesar? o regândire a modului în care este abordat? adop?ia, deoarece structura grupului ?int? s-a schimbat atât din punct de vedere al vârstei, cât ?i din punct de vedere al eventualelor handicapuri, ceea ce face adop?ia din ce în ce mai dificil?. "În anii '97, '98, '99 aveam foarte mul?i copii mici în sistem. Copiii mici tind s? devin? din ce în ce mai pu?ini ?i cred c? ar trebui ca familiile s? fie ceva mai bine informate asupra a?tept?rilor pe care le au de la sursa acestui sistem. Ar trebui s? fie mai bine informate cu privire la ce ar putea s? adopte din sistem ?i cred c? asta ar trebui s? conteze mai mult decât ce î?i doresc familiile. ?tiu, dintr-un studiu anterior, c? peste 95 la sut? din familiile care adopt? în România î?i doresc un copil mic, s?n?tos. Copilul mic, s?n?tos, începe s? devin? o excep?ie în sistemul de protec?ie a copilului ?i poate c? familiile ar trebui s? ?tie foarte bine acest lucru, s? fie informate, s? ?tie care sunt copiii pe care îi pot adopta", a spus Bogdan Simion.
