When guiding children’s conduct we need to grasp that galore poor behaviours are exhibited in children because of a lack of self control. Self control is not a conduct we are born with, rather it is learnt and nurtured over our early learning years. I believe that the key to guiding a child’s behaviours into long term positive outcomes comes from understanding that they are not born with intrinsic control of their emotions and reactions, and an understanding that we need to foster and nurture these calibers or skills.

Let me illustrate my thoughts on this point. When a child tantrums and hits their parent in a buying goods centre because they are not permitted to ride on the toy car, we would all agree that their conduct is not appropriate. However, which part of the circumstance is genuinely not appropriate? Now imagine yourself walking past your favourite cafe, watching a woman sitting for a moment of solitude, half way through a steaming cafe latte (you may alternate with your own preferent choice!). You turn to your buying goods collaborator to ask if they would like to join you in indulging, and they say “oh no, we don’t have time for that, I want to show you this new jacket I’ve seen”. You sigh, take a breathe (to capture to aroma of freshly ground beans) and follow your collaborator to give your opinion on the jacket.

Your original reaction to the circumstance is the same as that of the child “Oh, but I would actually love to…….”. The divergence comes in the capacity to control the basi reaction / emotions. The conduct of hitting and tantrumming to express emotion is not acceptable, the brief sigh and then compliance is acceptable.

How do we foster self control in children? I would like to suggest 3 main areas:

Modeling Self Control

Children learn through watching. A ad effort showed children following the reactions and emotions of their parents with the catch phrase “Children See, Children Do”. How may we suppose children to be constructing control over their emotions and to display suitable behaviours if we as teachers and parents are not doing the same. If we slam doors, yell at the driver who cut us off, or speak to colleagues with disrespect, we are not exhibiting self control ourselves and we need to receive the same behaviours in the children watching us.

Model to children how to express their emotions in controlled ways. It is completely suitable to explain to a child “Daddy is angry at the moment, I’m going for a run to run all the angry energy out”; or “Lisa is very tried from all the children crying and all the nappies she had to change today, I’m going outside for a minute to take 10 deep breaths”. You will be amazed to see how speedily children will mimic these strategies.

Behaviour Management Techniques for Self Control

There are a lot of varied proficiencies which may support children’s self control. Children need number of things from which only one can be chosen to express their emotions in controlled ways. In my child care centres I developed an “angry chart” where children could choose how they were going to express their emotions. In the throws of poor behavior, I would help the child to choose from one of the following:

o Count to 10

o Go for a run

o Have a hug

o Punch a pillow

o Do an ‘angry drawing’ (expelling their energy through vigorous drawing)

o Blow up a balloon (again expelling energy)

Many of these actually become an number of things from which only one can be chosen to “Time Out” , which is a much debated technique in child care centres. Children need to be got rid of from the heated circumstance in order to gain self control. The concern with ‘time out’ arose when children were seated on ‘time out’ chairs for long periods, detached from the rest of the group of children. The above proficiencies keep the child occupied and active, whilst still removing them from the original situation.

Considering the opening illustration, we likewise need to be thinking in front of situations which could fetch in regards to poor conduct and lack of self control. As parents, we will always be staged with ride on “thingys” or lolly pops at eye level in buying goods centres. Some days, we will need to concede time for child indulgences, just like we concede ourselves time or cash for a coffee indulgence. Periodic rewards may in truth aid us to be more controlled at times when we can’t indulge. The key to supporting children’s self control is to talk about with them beforehand what the expectation of this buying goods trip is, acknowledging that “yes, it’s sad we don’t have time for a ride today, I’m sad too”…. and of course to praise children when they make even the smallest accomplishment in aroused self control.

Games and Activities which Promote Self Control

Any games which foster a child’s attainments in listening and responding; and stopping on a command will aid their self control in behavior.

o ‘Stop / Go’ games such as Musical Statues and Red Light, Green Light.

o Musical games such as guessing the animal noise or where the sound is coming from; or listening and interpreting music through movement

o Relaxation Activities where children learn the achievements of relaxing their muscles and mind

o Breathing exercises such as pretending to blow up a balloon (drawing a huge breath and keeping it, and them expelling air in short bursts). Teaching children how to draw a long deep breath which helps more oxygen get to the brain.

o Waiting games where children need to either wait their turn or wait for instruction.

The key to fostering self control in conduct is to grasp that children are not born with a natural capacity to control their emotions. Rather, it is necessary to work on ways to foster self control, which will in turn help more positive conduct outcomes.

At the age of eight, the author begun a three-year odyssey through a series of orphan asylums and foster homes, punctuated by sequences of living in the streets—a journeying through a world of hostile strangers, abusive adults, and distrustful children.

They Cage the Animals at Night
By A
They Cage the Animals at Night is a terrific and emotionalstory about Jennings Michael Burch, a young boy who learned to survivein a cold, frightening world. His mother was too sick to care for him and left him in a series of orphanages and institutions. Life in these orphanages was brutal, punishments were cruel, rules were strict, and Jennings was unable to do anything about it. He couldn’t rely on family and friends because they all abandoned him in times that he really needed them. A tattered stuffed dog was the only friend that stayed with him through it all and the only thing he could count on in his lost childhood. This is the best book I have ever read. I couldn’t put it down. When it was time to go to sleep, I would get a flashlight and sit in the dark for hours and read this book. I have never read a sadder story. The fact that this all happened to the author makes me realize just how lucky I actually am to have family, friends, home, and money. I really felt sorry for Jennings. He was a boy about my age who doesn’t have all that I have. The story was based on sadness, love, survival, family, and friends. I would recommend this to anyone of any age who likes a powerful, sad story or who wants to be moved and touched. My entire family has either read it or wants to read it. Everyone I know that read it has felt the same way that I do about it.

THEY ALSO CAGE THE SOUL…
By Sandra D. Peters
This is the story of Jennings Michael Burch and it is not an easy book to read. It tells of a young boy’s determination to survive despite abandonment, physical abuse and humiliation after being left by his ailing mother at an orphanage. He then experiences a variety of foster homes and some of these accounts will bring more than a single tear to your eye.

During his stay at an orphanage, the Sisters would allow the children to choose a stuffed animal to take to bed with them at night as a source of comfort. Goodness only knows, it was their only small comfort – every other aspect was a child’s worst nightmare! However, in the wee hours of the morning before the children awoke, the animals would quickly be gathered up and locked away (caged) and this is the source of the book’s title. David’s only source of acceptance, love and understanding comes from “Doggie”, a tattered stuffed dog. Your heart will cry for this little boy whose only desire is to please, be loved and be wanted. The story does have a happy ending, if such stories ever really do. Despite all odds, Michael does survive, along with “Doggie”. The hurt, rejection and loneliness felt as an abused child never disappear. The wounds heal, the heart forgives, but the mind never forgets. Anyone who has experienced abuse as a child, whether it be physical, sexual, emotional or verbal, will be able to relate only too well to the story of little Jennings Michael Burch. Often, reading the stories of other victims of abuse, help the adult survivor to realize they are not alone. If you have never experienced abuse, you will count your blessings that you have never had to live each and every day in a world of constant fear and rejection. …

They Cage the Animals at Night
By C. Petersen
I finished this book at one sitting because I could not put it down. It was one of the most touching stories I ever read. It tells the story of a little boy named Jennings. His mother has health problems, so he and his brothers spend much of their young lives in orphanages and foster homes. Jennings is seperated from his mom and his brothers, and sent to cold institutions that are often run by unfeeling administrators who dole out painful and humiliating punishments for small, insignificant offenses such as wetting the bed. He is lent out to foster homes where he is ignored, beaten, and otherwise mistreated. All this moving around causes him to fall behind in his schooling. Because of this, his fellow students and even his teachers mock and deride him, telling him he is stupid. What little time he does spend at home is disrupted by quarreling older brothers, a sick mother, a permanently hospitalized brother, a couple of drunken brothers, and a constant lack of money. And even with all he went through, he didn’t give up. The book is very well written, and will touch the heart of anyone who loves children. I think that everone should read this inspiring true story.

The abolitionist movement, which represented the earliest days of the American Civil Rights Movement, succeeded in each northern state by 1804, even though there were still at least a dozen “permanent apprentices” listed in the 1860 census. Three northern organizations advocating this reform were the Society of Friends (Quakers), the Pennsylvania Antislavery Society, and the New York Manumission Society.

This latter group was run by powerful Federalists John Jay, Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr. The Federalists opposed State’s Rights, arguing for federal legislation abolishing slavery. New York in the end abolished slavery, gradually, starting in 1799, making this the biggest emancipation of American slaves in history before 1863. New Jersey was the last northern state to abolish slavery, in 1804.

The Constitutional Convention of 1787 consorted to concede the federal government to abolish the international slave trade, and by that time, all the existent states but Georgia had passed laws abolishing or gravely limiting the slave trade. Georgia at last passed similar laws in 1798 – and the importation of slaves into the USA was officially abolished on New Year’s Day in 1808. This was a major move in the direction of abolition.

However, in the 1830s, the Postmaster General refused to concede the U.S. mails to deliver abolition pamphlets to the South. Northern teachers suspected of anti-slavery “tendencies” were expelled from the South, and abolitionist creative writing of recognized artisti value was banned in those states. Southerners were claiming that incidents like John Brown’s undertake at Harper’s Ferry in 1859 to start out a slave uprising was proof northerners were conspiring versus them to cause war through slave rebellions.

The North, plainly put, was dead set versus the South’s prevailing complex mental states with regards to slavery. Eric Foner once stated: “Northerners came to view slavery as the very antithesis of the good society, as well as a threat to their own rudimentary values and interests.” However, northern conservatives dire the migration of a big number of freemen into the North, as they tended to receive lower pay. They were being seen, like today’s illegal Mexican-American workers, as “undercutting prevailing wages.” It was dire that former slaves would cause deep pay cuts for all American workers, peculiarly white ones.

In spite of such difficulties, one white abolitionist, Massachusetts’ Abby Kelley Foster, became an “ultra,” advocating not only abolition but full civil rights for all black people. An agent for the American Anti-Slavery Society, Foster, known commonly as Abby Kelley, thought that free slaves must colonize the new African nation of Liberia. She likewise recruited Susan B. Anthony and Lucy Stone, other American feminist leaders, to the early Civil Rights Movement. Kelley, who inspired other young women to be known as “Abby Kelleyites,” ofttimes shared her platform with ex-slaves – in spite of the further and added scorn this entailed. “I rejoice to be identified with the despised people of color. If they are to be despised, so ought their advocates to be,” was one of her widely known and esteemed quotes.

Another well-known abolitionist was the wizened but charming black woman known as Sojourner Truth. Her introductory speaking engagement was with Abby Kelley. Truth in the first place had the Dutch slave name Isabella Baumfree, but changed her name because “the Spirit calls me.” She wasn’t much for the white man’s religion, though, and ofttimes spoke versus slavery and the mental picture of black women being “unladylike” and subhuman. She was born into slavery in New York, enduring usual beatings at the hands of her white pros and mistresses.

At one point in time, she was on one of her a great deal of “sojourns,” or journeys, and a streetcar run by a white male conductor wouldn’t stop to pick her up, refusing her as a passenger. She bravely ran along the track and leaped into the path of the streetcar, gauging the distance incisively right, making the conductor stop for her. Her most famous speech was the plainly put, “Ain’t I a Woman?” where she also gave us the following quote, revised from her 19th century dialect:

“If the basi woman God ever made was strong sufficient to turn the world upside down all alone, these women together ought to be capable to turn it back, and get it right side up again! And now they is asking to do it. The men better let them.” Maybe that reference is where Dr. King got the idea of making “valleys into hills and hills into valleys,” but it’s likewise a Biblical reference. I’ll tell you a bit more in regards to the roots of American black religious faith and how they led to Dr. King being a minister toward the end of this section.

Anyway, this quote from Truth’s ordinary speech was spoken at the Ohio Women’s Rights Convention, and her recurrent theme was probably based on an incident where a heckler in the audience had called her a man. She proudly opened her blouse, revealing her breasts, a specifically bold move on her part which likely led to “Ain’t I a Woman?” I guess even your oppositions may aid you be productive, as in the case in 1960′s Birmingham, where local black civil rights leaders said that Police Commissioner “Bull” O’Connor and his violent anti-black tactics were “helping the Movement,” due to all the media attention they were getting at the time.

The Catholic faith doesn’t tend to exalt the poor and their elevation, which is the popular black meaning of “turning things around,” as much as the black version of Protestantism does. That may explain the popular Catholic lack of sympathy for Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s programs at first. Dr. King was the presumed head of the Civil Rights Movement in America in the 1960s.

But for Catholics, there was plentiful praise of Jesus’ faith in the resurrection of the spirit and his attendant faith in the spirituality of all people. Blacks at the time of slavery and in much later American history continued a tendency toward religion that influenced their culture and entire way of doctrine and thought immeasurably, but Truth was probably spiritually-oriented.

She didn’t like white men much, or their male-oriented religions. She coordinated white and black feminists similar to oppose slavery through abolition, but that and colonizing Liberia were not the only actions taken versus slavery. Also, allround American history, there have been movements to try the return of African-Americans to the Motherland.

Through the 1820s and 1830s, the American Colonization Society (ACS) kept proposing to stop slavery by returning to Africa, a motion which was broadly supported by both whites and blacks. They saw it as a preferable substitute to emancipation, and Black Nationalist pioneer Marcus Garvey would also start out a similar movement. He founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) in 1914, opening a branch in Harlem, New York in 1916.

The UNIA was intended “to advertize the spirit of race pride,” and was an try to cause global unity among all black people, establishing the greatness of their African heritage. Garvey appealed to the black lower classes and rejected any ideals or notions of racial integration. He was sure that blacks could not secure their rights in countries like the USA, where they were a racial minority group, so he started out a “back to Africa” movement, and he was considered the most influential black leader of the early 1920s.

However, in the early 1800s there was a series of little attempts to plant settlements on the coast of West Africa, where most of the slaves had been in the first place captured, and the colony of Liberia was established circa 1821-1822. In the next four decades, thousands of American former slaves settled there. They declared independence in 1847, even though not galore had pulled through the move, as they had succumbed to local diseases. The abolition motion caused support for the colony to fade quickly, but the new Liberians ruled their country until the bloody military coup of 1980 by army personnel who assassinated President William R. Tolbert.

Therefore, due to the lack of effective other methods for handling this major American issue, the work of the abolitionists is what at last managed to help end slavery. However, in spite of multiple attempts on the constituents of many, it took just with regards to for a limitless time to get the South to agree on this. Their intense stubbornness is what led to the continuing hatred and racism ongoing allround 1960′s Birmingham, leading to the tragic deaths of a great deal of black children and the uninterrupted bombings of dozens of peaceful citizens’ homes.

my 6 year old’s favorite series right now….
By Sparky
and she doesn’t even like dogs! There are 4 books in this series, she is on the 3rd one and has loved each one. She is in first grade and had no trouble reading or understanding the books, so I think the age range given here (9 to 12) is a little misleading, The plot is very straighforward, which is why she is able to read them. We recently got a puppy (she wanted a kitten, but her dad is allergic) and she’s learned alot about puppies, how to care for them and why they do what they do, so even though this isn’t great literature it’s helpful in that regard. One odd think that she had noticed – the main characters have a baby brother who is 3 – but can’t talk and crawls around on the floor – her brother is 3 and he’s certainly not like that. I don’t know if the author just doesn’t know about small children or the child has some disability that the book doesn’t talk about, but my daughter always brings it up as “weird.”

The question of what foundations to turn to for funding is one Christian ministries and churches ponder over all the time. There are of course respective components to consider. The degree of compatibility amidst your mission and the aims of a foundation remains the most important consideration. But at a time when foundation funding is declining, it helps to know which foundations are giving the most – along with knowing a little regarding their overall purpose, the kinds of Christian organizations they fund, and the kinds of programs that interest them.

The following are the top 20 Christian concede funding origins in terms of funding generosity.

1. Of all the Christian grant foundations accepting apps at this time the Alharetta, Georgia-based National Christian Foundation (NCF) provides the most funds. Seeking to further the gospel of Jesus Christ, it is funding territory is national. This is for the most part a donor advised fund.

Big help for paperwork phobics
By A
One of the things I liked best about this book is that it included samples of all of the paperwork we needed to collect or submit during the adoption process and gave detailed instructions for finding the necessary forms and documents.

I also liked the step-by-step approach. In addition to making the whole thing easier and less overwhelming, breaking the process down like this, really helped us understand how international adoption works and what government agencies oversaw each part of the process. We could also really track our progress.

The book was also very helpful to us in researching and choosing the right agency and the right country.

I’d definitely recommend this book to anyone even considering the possibility of international adoption.

the “Bible” for International Adoptions
By Jo-Anne Weaver
This book was my “bible” as I prepared to adopt internationally. It guided me through the very detailed, step-by-step process. From finding an agency, initial paperwork, finances, social worker visits, the actual trip and first amazing meeting with your child, to issues once back – such as potential health problems, cultural issues, readopting and adjusting to life as a new family. Sample forms and documents were extremely valuable. I found this more current than other sources available. Also addressed adopting as a single-parent, which was encouraging! I had the opportunity to hear the authors speak in person, and was impressed not only with their first hand experience in adopting and raising their own children, but with their keen knowledge of international politics, and their passion and commitment to guiding others to build their family through foreign adoption. They have a wealth of experience running their own adoption agency, and clearly remain on the cutting edge when it comes to the most current information regarding international adoption. (I now have a beautiful, happy, healthy daughter whom I adopted from China.) This book is a must read for anyone considering the complicated (but ultimately wonderful) experience of adopting a child from a foreign country!

Its finish legal name is The Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Co-operation in Respect of Intercountry Adoption.

The Hague is a city in the Netherlands. It is home to the International Court and is one of the three United Nation Cities; Geneva Switzerland and New York City being the other two.

A Convention – in this usage – is a treaty or an agreement among like-minded people.

History

During the ’80s, UNICEF promoted the faith that global adoption was “creating severe and complex humane and legal difficultnesses and the absence of existent domestic and international legal instruments conveyed the need for a multilateral approach.” In 1989, UNICEF started out work on the Convention. It was approved by the UN in May 1993. President Clinton signed it in 1994. Congress ratified it in 2000 and the law (Intercountry Adoption Act of 2000) implementing it went into effect in April 2008.

Overview

When an adoption occurs amidst two countries who have ratified and implementing the mandates of the Convention (I call those Convention countries), they will have to adhered to the Convention in accord with the laws of the respective countries. A major vantage of a Convention country is that it can not change the adoption procedures at will like a non-Convention country. For that aspect alone, I wish the Convention had been in place when we adopted my daughter from Guatemala in 2002.

The Convention does not prevent adoptions amidst the 86 Convention countries (Vietnam ratified the Convention last week and it will go into effect on 2/1/12) and non-Convention countries. Non-Convention countries Ethiopia, Russia South Korea, and Ukraine accounted for 44% of 2010 adoptions. Convention country China accounted for 31% of the adoption. These five countries sent 75% of the children in 2010.

The Convention requires the creation of a central adoption authority in each Convention country. For the US, the Office of Children’s Issues in the Bureau of Consular Affairs at the U.S. Department of State is our central authority. It is run by Ambassador Susan Jacobs.

Guatemala and Cambodia are distinguishable Convention countries in kinship to the US. Neither have convinced our central authority that they are implementing the mandates of the Convention. For that reason, adoptions cannot take place amidst the US and those countries.

Convention Text

The rest of this article is my commentary on the Convention.

Preamble

Recognizing that the child, for the full and harmonious development of his or her personality, will have to grow up in a family environment, in an atmosphere of happiness, love and understanding

Nothing is more indispensable for a well-formed humane child than growing up in this type of family.

Recalling that each State must take, as a matter of priority, suitable measures to enable the child to stay in the care of his or her family of origin

There is no doubt that we fabricate our identity by our family-of-origin. In a perfective world, a child whose parent may no longer parent would be raised by extended family.

Recognizing that intercountry adoption may offer the vantage of a permanent family to a child for whom a suitable family can not be found in his or her State of origin

In addition to a family, we gain identity from our country-of-origin. Again, in a perfective world, it is better for a child to grow up in their country of birth. As we will see later, the Convention demands that each venture ought to be made to find a home for the child in the sending country before make them available for international adoption.

Convinced of the requirement to take measures to make sure that intercountry adoptions are made in the best interests of the child and with respect for his or her rudimentary rights, and to prevent the abduction, the sale of, or traffic in children

These are the basic tenets of the Convention. I altogether agree these are necessary issues. Every human-from conception till natural death-is entitled to rudimentary rights. The countries of the world must do all they may to prevent crimes versus children such as those listed.

What the Adoption Process Needs is Another Bureaucracy

Javier Pascual Salcedo understood global adoption when he said, “Bureaucracy is the art of making the possible impossible”.

As if there are not sufficient organizations in global adoption telling us to cross “t”s and dot lower case “j’s, the Convention demands each country establish a Central Adoption Authority. The Central Authorities have the obligation of implementing the Convention within the laws of their countries. They ought to also work with the Central Authorities in the other countries to facilitate the adoptions amidst the countries.

The Convention lists the reports and records that must be created, filed, and maintained with the Permanent Bureau of the Hague Conference on Private International Law in The Hague. Another role of the Central Authority is to develop (or appoint) another agency to accredit adoption agencies. Title II of the Intercountry Adoption Act of 2000 describes how this is be done in the US.

Our Central Authority (the Office of Children’s Issues within the State Department) has indicated the Council on Accreditation and the State of Colorado Department of Human Services as the corroboration bodies. These two bodies are responsible for ensuring American adoption agencies meet the standards of the Convention. If adopting from a Convention country, you ought to use an accredited or approve agency.

To support keep the Socialists who wrote the Convention happy, in the US we accredit not-for-profit agencies and approve for-profit agencies. They both meet the same standards; they just have dissimilar designations.

The Central Authority provides a list of all an accredited and approved agencies to all Convention countries. Those countries do the same for the US. This ensures the agencies in both countries following the same standards. If adopting from a non-Convention countries, there is no requisite to use a specific agency.

On Financial Gain

There are dirtballs out there that buy and trade children to place them for adoption. This is one of the primary reasons the Convention came into place. Anyone who does this to children ought to be have cola poured over them and they strung up by their most sensible body elements over one hundred hives of honey bees.

This is when the free-market, capitalist side of me takes the keyboard. The anti-western Socialists who helped write the Convention jumped on this crime versus children like a good bureaucrat and over-reacted. They wrote the Convention with an underlying theme that net profit is evil.

For example, according to Article 8 the “Central Authorities shall take, directly or through public authorities, all suitable measures to prevent improper financial or other gain in connection with an adoption…”.

Article 32 gives more details: “No one shall derive improper financial or other gain from an action affiliated to an intercountry adoption. Only costs and expenses, including reasonable professional fees of people involved in the adoption, may be charged or paid. The directors, administrators and workers of bodies [adoption professionals] involved in an adoption shall not receive remuneration which is unreasonably high in relation to services rendered.”

Since Intercountry Adoption Act of 200 does not define improper gain, the definition falls to the Secretary of State to make that determination. The market determines what is proper profit. The last thing we need is government interference in setting prices or compensation of adoption professionals.

Who Can Be Placed for Adoption

Article 4 necessaries are similar to the necessaries of some American states concerning adoption:

• everything ought to be in writing
• if the child is of the age of reason the wishes of the child ought to be considered
• the birthparents must be altogether informed of the adoption and has freely given their consent without compensation
• the child cannot be placed for adoption until after birth

Article 5 describes how adoptive parents ought to be are ready and capable to receive the adoptive child.

There is a clause in article 4 that bothers me: Competent authorities (that term is applied allround the Convention) in the sending country “have determined, after future prospects or potentials for placement of the child within the State of origin have been given due consideration, that an intercountry adoption is in the child’s best interests”.

To me, this says to the adoptive child, “You know, NOBODY in your country-of-origin wanted you.” 43 children were adopted from the US in 2010. That means in the country that adopts more children from other countries, amidst the 310,000,000+ of us, we could not find a home for 43? Something is defective here.

Until the Central Authority in the sending country determines a child entitled for global adoption (Article 4: a-c) and the Central Authority in receiving country determines the eligibility of the adoptive parents (Article 5: a), the potential child and potential parents can not meet (Article 29). There is an exception for rules conventional in the sending country. This means you can not go to a Convention country on a mission trip, fall in love with an orphan, and adopt that child.

The Hague Convention Process

• American potential parent(s) files an I-800A with the USCIS (United States Citizenship and Immigration Services).
• The parent(s) finish a homestudy including the items listed in Article 15.
• When parent(s) meet USCIS’ standards, the application is forwarded to the Central Authority in the sending country.
• When a child is determined entitled for global adoption in the sending country, their Central Authority prepares a report on the child according to Article 16 and forwards the report to US.
• Through their adoption agency, the potential parent(s) receive the referral of the child according to Article 17.
• Both countries work through their processes to move the child to the US. Each Central Authority is required to keep the other informed of the status through the procedure (Article 20) and finish the procedure as expeditiously as possible (Article 35).

Wrapping It Up

I am no legal expert, just a guy with views and a passion for orphan care and adoption.

For More Information The International Adoption website at the US State Department has more selective information regarding how the Hague Convention may affect you specific adoption.

Benji was the name of a canine reputation in various very general movies. The dogs that played Benji were so cute, and so intelligent, that it’s natural for a heap of humans to want to own a dog just like him.  

So –  what kind of dog is Benji, anyway? 

Unfortunately, answering that question is not as easy as it would seem, because the dogs who acted out the part in the movies were mutts. The initial dog that played the reputation of Benji was named Higgins. His trainer, Frank Inn, found him at a dog pound in Burbank, California.

Higgins’ daughter then took up the role and played the share of Benji in movies from 1977 to 1989. She looked a lot like Higgins, except her fur was softer and fluffier, and she had a white patch on her muzzle. Because she begun to play the role when she was only 11 months old, she was called “Benji” both in real life and in the movies. 

When the role was reprised for the movie Benji: Off the Leash! In 2004, another shelter dog was drafted for the part. A nationwide search for the perfective dog took three months, and was widely reported in an crusade to give hope or courage to others to adopt shelter dogs. Finally, a cross-bred dog that looked the part (and was easy to train) was found at the Humane Society of South Mississippi in Gulfport.   

And that brings us back to our basi question – what kind of dog is Benji? And the answer – all the dogs that have played Benji in the movies have been mutts. And with the exception of Higgins’ daughter, they’ve all been adopted from an animal shelter, where a lot of more adorable, trainable and devastatingly cute dogs are now waiting for a permanent home.

A Home for Princess
By Kerri Busteed
The Puppy Place books are about a family who fosters puppies and helps them find a good forever home. When the family goes to get their hair cut, Charles meets a puppy named Princess who needs a new home. This sounds like a great idea until her previous owner comes to drop her off with “the list”. You know, the list of instructions that one must follow in order to properly take care of this particular dog. Sounds easy enough, until Charles realizes that these instructions are very detailed and Princess is so accustomed to things done her way that he must follow every step carefully or Princess is not happy. This might be the most difficult dog yet to find a forever home for.

Everyone loves puppies and stories about children doing good for others. This book combines the two and makes a great read for third through fifth graders. It’s easy to get caught up in the story and laugh out as you read the crazy things one must do to care for the dog. Matching tee shirts and bows? Different dishes for different meals? I don’t think I got that crazy for my kids when they were babies. I think your young reader will definitely enjoy this series.
