so she came to us not long ago has been with us for a week. unless it isn't the most complicated group among those with a complex structure of developmental to facts these are children with physical and psychological issues with. nearly none of them can walk. we have children with cerebral palsy and others who are totally blind to. sessions such a turn five and then misfortune it hits who he was in a tuberculosis treatment center and his mother decided to go see him as a christian hard taxi and on the way back from the medical center they were in a car accident. all his inner organs were torn apart and everything is sewn up now. and there were lots of operations so he doesn't walk recently he began to see before that he could only light down. the family had trouble before the
6:32 pm
accident the single mom was stripped of her parental rights for not looking out for the child's welfare. the boys are very good and alert. it's hard for him to understand the bomb to this chair. and cannot. most importantly he doesn't let his ailments define him. and when he's in this chair you have to catch him so that he doesn't fall down. he's always moving if we could find strong willed parents ready to take a handicapped child be able to join their family today. mama. mama. i was brought up in this orphanage myself she's my family didn't last long my parents divorced. they didn't get along well it happens in families and mom got
6:33 pm
a job here because of the so my two sisters and i were taken to live in this house . thanks to mom's love leave here and didn't feel like orphans. but i've been around orphan since i was a little girl. and my young and innocent heart witnessed this harsh life that looks a little this is some kids have it really hard it is a little and they need help over the. you know the child should live in the orphanage for along with them it lives its mark on a child both on his character and personal attributes which leaves me a child should be raised in a family pretty soon. she will develop completely differently with a family relationship because we cannot give this to a child in an orphanage no matter how strongly we love the child children and wish him well but no matter what good conditions we have here we will never be able to
6:34 pm
give it. a discipline that hasn't been here for a loan them she has a big problem in her family but the real mother is an alcoholic of course she was stripped of her parental rights rehabilitation assumes highly unlikely. that it is a very private child everybody came to like her and twins. in order to ensure that this little two year old child didn't stay in that orphanage for long if we immediately began searching for a family. oh oh. oh. so why do this today we're having
6:35 pm
a class for future parents along with children from our orphanage. why do we do this gettable first of all it's done to prevent parents from sending the child back to their own french the children from orphanages have a special fate that's how i put you but they are special they haven't experienced certain everyday troubles of course this affects their mental state and their behavior. that parents need to learn how to interact with them at the polls but they need to find a way to communicate with found the one thing within they should learn to love and accept and you might think that the movement was that i'd said that we try to provide parents with certain knowledge and skills then they can use the scales in their life to build a friendly and kind family. get them sort of the children always like attention and care physical contact because they just are important for them and are children now open and social they're able
6:36 pm
to communicate they share their energy and adults also get positive emotions at this lessons. because if candidate parents like a child then later on they might be able to welcome him her into their family with her. but that's it but it's hard not only the child goes through the adaptation process the parents dave to the children like to test adults they will disobey it test your rules try to get your attention that's why what is necessary during this period is mutual support between spouses as well as setting down the same rooms. we've been thinking about it for a long time i think it took us four years to make this decision we kept doubting whether we would be able to fall in love. with that child we decided that we could more than. the first question was what we should

6:48 pm
coming from an orphanage and she's used to certain things that are likely to be different in her new family yet. it's possible that the change may cause some nervousness everything is new for her trying to comfort her trust as a contact it will give her a feeling of protection. i have been working as the head of the orphanage for sixteen years now during these years only eleven children have been returned by adoptive families. this is primarily the result of the professionalism of our psychologists all of that are extremely serious when it comes to selecting candidates were adoptive families. preparing them and in raising our special kids. even those the ninety eight percent of the children from lower orphanage placed with families.
6:49 pm
in ways says to these families from day one to see and our psychologist continue to assist them until the child comes off each. would give them all the help they need . i want our kids to be happy i want everything to work out for them. with just as mum so i'm now aware going to take a piece of class and you will paint a picture together. paint on the site and basically set. well pain on the other side you need to keep silent while painting don't talk to each other ok we can begin now right.
6:50 pm
now let's discuss what we have created and. then just apple sunset tree. your mother painted a tree and you decided to make some changes to her picture you don't like it. i just want to temples so i went to bed it's quite misleading how did you react to your tree being changed because of i knew. i was all taken aback why did you change my picture i wanted to being a virgin i end up with an apple turn i always dorothy's leg that. yeah she's like that she likes to get her way have her way is it difficult at times to agree with this lisa yes sometimes it is. so easy you know we came a bit stressful after the doctors gave their diagnosis. of the girl gets restless
6:51 pm
sometimes. the thing is that when the underground system is affected it's a lot of stress and nerves nothing of the sometimes she begins acting up when her blood sugar levels increase our psychologist helps us to deal with it. it's good for us lisa and us to. we're almost there. and i think where's our pretty girl. and that counted grandmother quick ok hands up good girl. you're a star you're power star. and i don't know. what
6:52 pm
i can do this here yet you can read books to her. and i'll read books take her to nursery school and bring her home he's a big brother now he'll look after her. miniatures of what i think they're special our children have grown up the oldest is going to college this year the younger one is also a big boy now we've always wanted a girl at first i wasn't sure about the way she would communicate with us she closes herself up easily she's like that like a snail in its shell but i think that she generally feel safe like she play she doesn't cry much she met the boys earlier so i think it'll be easy for her to join our family. there aren't any fears only emotion this but tell you warned us that she's got some illness but i don't worry about that. we'll deal with it. and wish
6:53 pm
it but i was more worried about how it would go it went well too good to be true. she accepted it. for mom. my mom is nice and kind and she looks after us. and. it's probably a higher power that decides on the people we meet that's what i think. before i took her home our eyes met sometimes at the orphanage she would wave her hand at me like that. and then i began to pay more attention to her more and we became closer and closer. and i didn't have children of my own i thought it would be good to have someone look someone i can take care of and someone who will look after me to. the solicitors to eat let's record what you ate
