Catalin Szauter, 17 years
old: "I am totally against the law banning international adoptions, as
I was denied the chance to be with a wonderful American family that three years
ago wanted to adopt me and my older brother. The Bradley family came to Romania
to adopt a child, but when they met me and my brother, they decided they wanted
us to become their sons. But the authorities did not approve their request,
arguing that we were too old to be adopted, that we were not suited to having a
family with a different culture. So we were left here and we now have no
parents. However, my life has changed since the day I met the American family,
because they never stopped helping me and my brother. For three years, they have
been offering us both emotional and financial support and I might go to America
to continue my studies. I might even visit them this spring, if the authorities
will grant me the necessary visa. I hope someone will soon realize that this
restrictive law only harms abandoned children, as there are not many Romanian
families willing to adopt us."
