    Another touching story brought to us by Alex,(who is a truly sensitive and patient interviewer). Marina is a credit to all her parents; such a gentle and intelligent person.

    I told my daughter that biological parents, though we may never know their reasons why, look(ed) to give them the best chance at life via adoption.
    Thank you Alex for the delicate way you handle the interviews that reach the core of our emotions.

    What a beautiful human Marina is. Such a wisdom:). Thank you. I am an aunt and a grandmother to my adopted nieces, two of them. The oldest one is my soul mate:). I love them both dearly. They are still kids, but I guess that the time of questioning the past and search for answers will come. I hope I can learn from you guys how to help my goddaughters if they wanted my help in future.
    Thank you Alex for this channel, for sharing your story. You are great help for not only the adoptees but those around them. Thank you:)

    From many videos I see a common them of the reason people put their kids for adoption. Adoption is a beautiful thing; it gives couples to be parents and it does give a better chance at life for kids.
    The common theme is economical hardship. In no form I am judging the decision of birth parents. I am only pointing out what I noticed.
    My family has 9 kids, my grandparents from both sides had 7-10 kids. My grandparents had their kids before, during and after the ww2 period. It was one of the toughest economical and social time for Soviet Union.
    My paterna grandfather was placed in an orphanage when he was kid after his mom died and his dad remarried but put the kids in the orphanage. So my grandfather was an orphan himself since age of 8 he ran from the orphanage and build his own life living with horses and taking care of them as a means to earn food. That man had 10 kids and he worked hard and didn’t give up any of his kids for orphanage though the economical condition was very bad. What helped him is having trust in God that God will provide. Bible says children are blessing from God, and it also says that even if mother forgets her child, God never will. Also Bible says that He provides for all our needs. My grandfather relied on God to help him provide for his family. I grew up in a large family in former Soviet Union with 8 siblings in a very difficult economy, but God always sent us people who helped us. Thanks the 90s after Soviet Union collapse our clothes came from a Christian mission from the US who sent us used clothing and shoes, but for us it was most beautiful stuff we saw.
    My point is, when we trust God, he comes through for us, and meets our needs. He knows what we need. I know many people don’t know about this, and because of fear give kids for adoption. It’s not their fault they didn’t know this, and they made the best decision with what they knew.

    Talking about connection.I've emigrated to Canada in the year 1995 with my now exhusband and our 8y,o. daughter. My daughter never wanted to hear anything about Russian culture, heritage ,etc.She speaks very plain limited R. language. We love each other, but it is some cultural disconnect, unfortunately. So, what I try to deliver to you , adopted kids, is that like one wise Jewish woman told me '' saying'', when I was young ;POD KAZHDOI KRISHEI SVOI MISHI. Translates as : There are own mice under each roof. The meaning of the saying -- We all struggle our own ways. With love to you all -- Marina❤🌺

      Marina has similar facial features as my daughter, especially when she was younger. My side of her family is more Russian, Polish and Wales/Irish while my ex-husband's side is strong in Italian. So it must be the Russian/Italian standing out in the facial features.
