International adoptions in decline as number of orphans grows by Angelica Fischer

After rising for decades, overseas adoptions have dropped by nearly half since 2004. This is due to rising regulations and growing sentiment in countries such as Russia and China against sending orphans abroad. There is one country that is sending more children abroad, which is The United States. In China it was the discovery of the impact of the one-child policy that has caused more children to go into orphanages. And in Russia it was the breakup of the Soviet Union.

I think the international adoptions should be increasing since globalization is growing. I think that China and Russia should start sending orphans abroad again so that the poor children can have a home to live in and a family to live with.
