    Alex is so mature! He wouldn’t be this person if he stayed in Romanian orphanage or with his birth family!
    Keep fighting for other kids to have a chance at life!

    Alex (Kuch’s) command of English is so good. With a slight German accent.
    Complimenti also to the Italian girl. Very impressive.

    I was adopted too from romania. at age 4 from an orphanage in craiova romania. I was put up for adoption at birth. I'd also like to share my story

    How difficult is it to reconnect with an adoptee's birth family? We adopted our daughter from Russia in 2001. Her birth mother is deceased, and she has been unable to locate her birth father.

    In the 90ies i remember the awful videos and news programmes coming from rumania, especially the orphanages, too many to look after properly.. from ireland it looked about 40 years behind us.

    He is so right, orphanages in Romania were indeed like natzi concentation camps.

    Did I hear him say , regarding the ending of international adoptionw from Romania - that it was a rule laid down by the E.U. before Romania could join? That' s not well known. I amso heard that thete was another teason gor stopping international adoptio s. Same with Russia. I' m.not gping to mention the reason here.
