Fixed the link for you OP

But yesterday his adoptive mother, Torry-Ann Hansen, put him on a ten hour flight as an unaccompanied minor with a note 'to whom it may concern', saying: "I no longer wish to parent this child."

In his rucksack, the 26-year-old nurse had placed sweets, biscuits and colouring pens for the journey.

She did not tell him she was rejecting him. Instead, she and a grandmother said that he was going on an "excursion" to Moscow.

In the typed note, which the blond boy was clutching when Moscow police picked him up, she said she wanted the adoption annulled and accused the Vladivostok orphanage of misleading her about the child's behavioural problems.

The Russians angrily denied this, saying he was stubborn but that his only disability was that he was "flat-footed".

Wow, that fecked up!

Well if she kept the receipt, i don't really see a problem.

WindSock · 09-04-2010 03:54PM

Maybe she wanted to exchange him for a Brunette?

ejmaztec · 09-04-2010 03:56PM

If your goods are covered by a 12 month guarantee, and there's a manufacturing defect, what are you supposed to do, keep quiet about it? :eek:

Kiera · 09-04-2010 03:58PM

Thats awful, the poor little kid. If he didnt have behaviour problems then he will now knowing he has been rejected

AckwelFoley · 09-04-2010 03:59PM

tbh, its impossible to judge this without pics.

In fairness, she may have got one of those emails about a hot russian man that wants to find love in America..

when she placed the order and it arrived - i'd imagne she didnt expect she'd have to grow it too.

Read the small print people, read the damm small print

bronte · 09-04-2010 04:01PM

Jesus Christ!
I'm adopted, and it's times like this I am so damned grateful I ended up with the amazing parents I did.
That is so damn sad. He's seven like?
He's going to be haunted by this crap for a very long time.
What a callous bitch.

:(

And he's flat-footed, to boot.

You can't be russian into big things like adoption.

happyfriday · 09-04-2010 04:02PM

Pretty shocking stuff. Even if he had problems she should maybe of looked into getting some kind of help in the US, not sending him back to Russia all on his own with a note pinned to his jumper. She took on the responsibility so the stupid women should not be allowed to get away with treating another human being as a pair of shoes!!

MaybeLogic · 09-04-2010 04:02PM

In mother Russia, children adopt you.

ScumLord · 09-04-2010 04:03PM

If that child says "in Russia.." one more time I'm sending him back.

ibarelycare · 09-04-2010 04:03PM

You'd need a pretty big tub of Vaseline

B*tch should be done for child neglect and trafficking.

My mam always said she would send me back to where i came from:eek:

Vladivostok orphanage of misleading her about the child's behavioural problems.

I suspect that many would-be adopters under estimate this potential.

Gross misrepresentation by The Sun

According to the Sun, they insist that the mother *quote* said she "didn't want him anymore" And deliberately portray it as "Callous" as if she had decided to throw out a pair of old shoes.

But nowhere further in the article can I find the context of this.

Perhaps they meant "quote" like Dr.Evil means "Laser"?

What the Mother Actually said:

To Whom it may concern,

I adopted this child, Artem Saveliev on September 29, 2009. This child is mentaly unstable. He is violent and has sever psychopathic issues/behaviors. I was lied to and misled by the Russian Orphanage workers and the Director regarding his mental stability and other issues. The Orphanage employees were definitely aware of the problems that this child has. Yet, they chose to grossly misrepresent these problems, in order to get them out of their orphanage.

After giving my best to this child, I am sorry to say that for the safety of my family, my friends, and myself, I no longer wish to parent this child. As he is a Russian National, I am returning him to your Guardianship and would like the adoption disannuled.

What a callous bitch.

Sigmond laughs in his grave everytime someone parrots the words they read.

I bet she never returned the accessories or the free gift. I hope they cancel her Adopt-a-Russkie loyalty card points.

I think it's the bit where she put a 7 year old orphan on a flight to Moscow with some biscuits and a couple of markers oh and a typed note to whatever random stranger she had found and paid to pick him up.

I'm sure it's been sensationalized to feck, but she stuck him on a plane on his own. It's just cold.

Stupid yes. Evil no. Judging from her letter I dont think that was her intention.

Even if I was returning damaged goods to a shop I'd do it in person. Common courtesy and decency.

She should have acted in a more humane and civilised manner, but for some strange reason she didn't. It seems the kid isn't the only one with psychological issues, and they were probably made for each other.

I feel sorry for the poor lad, with all the facilities in america surely he would have got help - thats if she sought it. I would think that this woman is just not cut out to be a mom. Its not like your getting a puppy is a human life. I hope the boy finds a family that will love him and help him through his issues. After what he has been through i wish him the best of luck.

if i win the euro millions tonight i would adopt him!!!!!!!

we'llallhavetea_old · 09-04-2010 04:52PM

i wouldn't post a faulty product back to the shop for fear of it getting stolen/damaged. i care enough for a crappy eg. hair straighteners, not to send it on its own.

there is never going to be a big enough excuse, for me, to understand the mentality of sending the poor child on his own, without actually knowing what would happen to him.

entropi · 09-04-2010 05:30PM

It's a very hurtful thing she's done here, potential adoptive perents are normally told of anything that can affect the welfare of the child, any problems they may have and how to manage them, so she can hardly say she knew nothing of it without extensive proof.

My best mate for like 15 years was adopted so I dont like hearing about people getting fu**ed around with adoption issues:(

And in the quote of the original letter the mother wrote posted by Overheal:

disannulled

this word came up...with annulled being the word for cancellation, does this mean she wants the kid back or not?:pac:

So you can send your child back......
