Russia furious over adopted boy sent back from US
An 7 year old adopted boy from Russia was sent back to Russia by his American adopted family with a note that stated he had psychological problems. Russian officials were furious about this mistreatment of a child. When he arrived in Russia, a social worker talked to him and he was sent to a medical center to be medically checked. The boy said that the mom was bad, didn't love him, and used to pull his hair. The American family claims that the boy was psychologically unstable and threatened to burn the house down so they became concerned for their safety. Russian officials and social workers are investigating the case. In the meantime, there is a threat that Russia wants to freeze the process of adoption by American families due to several prior incidents, including the deaths of 3 Russian kids by American adopted families, as well as several abuse cases.
