Kidnapping of Hosted Kids

Bad news reaching the internet tonight, a man who hosted 3 girls through Frontier Horizon is refusing to return them to Ukraine. Understandably, the Ukrainians are upset about this. He has no legal right to do this and is jeapordizing the future of hosting and adoptions from Ukraine.

Oh NO! We knew of a similar situation last summer for kids from Belarus. Shut down the whole program! Praying for a quick resolve! We were hoping to host O's friends next summer through FH!

The foolishness and selfishness of this is appalling. We are praying fervently that our adoption proceeds without delay due to this one man's actions!

I think this guy is trying to do "the right thing" by the girls but doesn't realize what he is actually doing to the process or his own attempts to adopt. I pray this doesn't delay other's attempts at adopting while going through the right proceedures. It's a shame to think that the precious kids of Ukraine will actually be the ones to suffer from such actions!

Absolutely unbelievable. Obviously we're praying, not only that this will not impact our adoption, but that the future of so many more children will not be threatened. Thanks for posting this. Ugh.
