Positive Birth Mother Interviews
I have waited to post anything about the birth mother interviews in Guatemala because it is so hard for me to write about…so hard for me to think that Gus’s birth mother has to go back, yet again, and explain her situation to people who don’t know anything about her and her life.
Last week the AP reported that at least Guatemalan officials annulled at least 15 cases due to “improprieties”. Of the 160 cases they had reviewed 15 cases had anomalies and 2,126 were yet to be investigated. Thankfully, the 145 cases that were “clean” were allowed to move forward.
Unfortunately, the AP reported that criminal complaints are being filed against lawyers, doctors, social workers, and birth mothers because of these cases. The problem is that they have misled officials and adoptive families throughout the entire process and they have taken money for the work they have done for children that may not officially be available for adoption.
For good news;
Two couples that we know heard from their agency that their birth mothers were interviewed and their cases will now move on to the review process in PGN.
