Chapter 150 This World Is Inherently Unfair

From Feng Ling's description, Wu Bin had a preliminary understanding of the field of adoption.

First of all, let’s look at the big data on adoption. Before 2005, the number of domestic and foreign adoptions was almost the same. However, after 2005, the international adoption data became larger than the domestic adoption data for the first time. At the peak, 7,900 orphans were adopted abroad.

It is said that at that time, one in every three orphans in the United States was from China. In addition, domestic adoption centers were also open to 14 countries including Denmark, Finland, Spain, and France.

According to Feng Ling’s knowledge, there are two main reasons why international adoptions are larger than domestic adoptions.

First, the adoption qualifications for domestic adopters are more stringent than those for foreign adopters. The biggest difference is that domestic adopters are required to have no children.

Second, the domestic adoption system is very standardized, unlike adoption agencies in some countries where many problems may arise before adoption, so international friends are particularly willing to adopt orphans from China.

There seemed to be other things related to interests in other aspects, but Feng Ling, as a teacher, didn't know much about it, so she didn't go into details.

Seeing that Wu Bin had probably digested all this information, Feng Ling threw the last bite of bread into his mouth and sighed.

"One thing I have to say is that when it comes to the adoption of children with congenital disabilities, the proportion of actual adoptions by foreign friends is really much higher. One of my schoolmates is now going to the United States to study for a Ph.D., and she told me that she often goes to be adopted by American families. Nine out of ten adopted children from Chinese primary schools are disabled, some even severely disabled, but they are very confident and do not feel inferior because they say they are very content to have such a warm home. "

After listening to this, Wu Bin thought for a while and expressed his opinion: "After all, kindness also requires a material foundation. Basically, only those with better family conditions will have the spare capacity to adopt a few more, but they must have no children in the country." This one directly blocks the road for those families.”

"What you said makes sense." Feng Ling nodded, took out a bottle of yogurt from the plastic bag in the supermarket, put it in with a straw and drank it.

"What happens after that? What will happen to the children who were not adopted?" Pei Jiamin asked anxiously.

Qin Tao on the side saw Pei Jiamin's anxious look, snickered, walked behind her, pinched her cheek and said, "Don't worry, even if they are not adopted, the hospital will take good care of them and arrange for them to go there." Go to school, even if your physical condition does not allow you to go to school, we still have to teach them."

After hearing this, Pei Jiamin suddenly held Qin Tao's hand that was squeezing her cheek and said softly, "You must all be angels."

Qin Tao was a little stunned after hearing this, but soon smiled and hugged Pei Jiamin from behind, "Thank you for saying that."

Looking at this scene, Feng Ling also smiled happily, and then said: "When they grow up, those who are healthy will leave the orphanage and go to work. At that time, the deputy director will help them apply for low-rent housing."

"What about... those who can't take care of themselves?" Wu Bin asked.

"Then stay in the institution and do some handicrafts. There will always be someone to take care of them." Sighing, Feng Ling looked at Wu Bin and said, "At least in this orphanage, companionship is far greater than material things, so if you can work with those The kids bonded and we were happy.”

"We will." Wu Bin and Pei Jiamin said in unison.

"Then I look forward to seeing you again next week." Qin Tao said, pinching Pei Jiamin's face again and saying, "High school students have tender skin."

"Hey, please don't act like an idiot, okay?" Feng Ling couldn't help but complain.

However, Qin Tao became even more excited after hearing this, leaving Pei Jiamin a little at a loss.

…

At 7 o'clock in the evening, Wu Bin and Pei Jiamin left the orphanage after agreeing with the children to visit them next week.

Walking on the path illuminated by street lights, Wu Bin let out a breath of cold air, his expression a little solemn. Thinking of the reluctance of those children when they said goodbye to him just now, he felt really distressed.

"Next week you..." Wu Bin turned his head and wanted to ask Pei Jiamin when he planned to come together next week, but found that she was missing!

In his eagerness, he immediately looked back, only to find her squatting not far away.

Wu Bin breathed a sigh of relief, patted his chest and walked over slowly, and then heard a burst of deliberately suppressed sobs.

"Cry if you want." Wu Bin took out a tissue from his backpack and handed it to Pei Jiamin.

"I...I didn't want to cry." Pei Jiamin said as she took the tissue from Wu Bin's hand, "Just...just now I met Yingying when I went to the toilet. She said she sneaked here and she was crying. She loves us and hopes we can come back next week.”

As he was talking, he suddenly burst into tears with a "wow" sound.

Wu Bin just silently took out another piece of paper and gave it to her.

Wiping tears with both hands, Pei Jiamin took out a blue paper crane from her coat pocket and said while crying: "She gave me this and said that if I go again next week, she will give me another one." It’s pretty, wow…”

Listening to Pei Jiamin's words mixed with sobs, Wu Bin's nose felt sore and he almost couldn't hold it back.

Yingying is the girl with the tumor on her face. She was sent to the orphanage when she was three years old. Now she is six years old and has been recommended to adopters by teachers several times, but so far no one is willing to accept her as a new adopter. family member.

For children in orphanages, the likelihood of being adopted decreases by one point for every year they are older. The most people are adopted before the age of three, and after the age of three, because they already have their own consciousness and have stayed in the orphanage This memory, so many parents are afraid of "not raising them well enough"

"She is obviously so sensible...so cute, yet she has to suffer such pain. This is unfair, unfair..."

Pei Jiamin cried louder and louder, as if she wanted to vent all her emotions.

Wu Bin took out another tissue and put it into her hand, saying, "There are too many unfair things in this world, and all we can do is spend more time with them."

After crying for a while, Pei Jiamin finally calmed down a little. After wiping away her tears with paper, she looked at Wu Bin and asked, "You said before that you wanted to help them. Have you thought about how to do it?"

"Not yet." Wu Bin shook his head, "If I want them all to have a warm home, I still have a lot to learn."

Pei Jiamin wiped away her tears and nodded, and said seriously: "I will also help you. Although I don't know what I can do, I will help you."

"That's really reassuring." After Wu Bin said that, he stretched out his hand towards Pei Jiamin: "Okay, get up, otherwise the uncle looking at us across the way will probably call the police."

Pei Jiamin couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and put her hand in Wu Bin's palm.
