Here's a update on the fu-ked up story.

QUOTE
HONG KONG (AFP) - A Dutch diplomat and his wife have given up a seven-year-old South Korean girl they adopted as a baby, saying they had failed to integrate her into their family, consulate officials in Hong Kong said Monday.

The couple, whose names were not released, made the move in the last few months, seven years after they adopted her, a South Korean consulate spokesman told AFP.

"They now have their own children. They decided it was difficult to raise her because of cultural shock. They said she's not willing to eat their food. That's one of the reasons. It's a strange reason," said the spokesman, who did not want to be named.

"She was raised from a very early age. It's a very uncommon case. It's a difficult situation for us to understand," he said, adding that the couple had adopted the child when the diplomat was working in South Korea.

On Monday, JoongAng Daily of South Korea said the diplomat's wife thought she was infertile when the couple adopted the Korean girl in 2000 but she got pregnant after moving to Hong Kong.

The Korean consulate spokesman said the girl has a Korean passport and was not naturalised as a citizen of her adoptive parents' country. Neither was she a Hong Kong resident.

He said the girl can speak English and Cantonese but not Korean. The Hong Kong government has found a school for her and is looking for a new home.

A spokeswoman for Hong Kong's social services department said she knew about the case but would not comment on it.

A spokesman for the Dutch consulate in Hong Kong said it was a personal matter.

"They got a very hard time with this. For the family involved, it's a very traumatic thing," he said, declining to comment further.

Over the weekend, the high-ranking diplomat told the South China Morning Post that his wife was seeking therapy following the decision.

"It's just a very terrible trauma that everyone's experiencing," he was quoted as saying. "I don't have anything to say to the public. It is something we have to deal with."

Susan So, director of Hong Kong Society for the Protection of Children, said it was not uncommon for parents to feel alienated to their adopted children and treat them as secondary after they have their own offspring.

"(Parents) should have known they are from different cultures. But some have difficulties in fully accepting them as their family members. They have problems in commitment," she said.

She said parents should have proper counselling before they decide to make an adoption.

"They should know they always run the risks when they adopt a child. Once you make a decision, it's a commitment. Otherwise, it's the children who suffer."

They gave up on the little girl because she wouldn't eat their food. WTF? What the fuk kind of excuse is that since they adopted her at 4 months.

The local Hong Kong government should compel the couple to pay for the child's welfare until she reaches the age of 18 and immediately establish a college fund for her.

Seconded!

And she should never have to work in a drive-thru window to pay her way through uni!

The couple explanations of giving up the child is completely BS; given the child was being adopted by them at 4 MONTHS OLD! I wonder how people like them can got through the adoption in the first place, isn't it suppose that they need to gone through a series of questioning and repeat visitation from the adoption agency before and after the adoption in order to make sure that they would be fitting parents? This couple really need to seriously looking at themselves in the mirror to see what kind of people they are. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumbsdown.gif)

What did they mean about not adopting to Dutch culture? Wasn't she a baby when she was adopted? (rhetorical!) Her original ethnicity shouldn't have any influence at all (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused.gif)

Also, her "dad" isn't a ethnic Dutch, that for sure.

He claim:
"'When we moved from Jakarta to Hong Kong in 2004, medical specialists diagnosed that my daughter suffers from serious bonding problems,' Mr Raymond Poeteray and his wife Meta wrote in a letter to De Telegraaf on Thursday."

I wonder who's fault that is. I mean, kids are basically blank slates when they're born.

i think i know what is going on....

the fat white wife couldnt have any children, so she got the idea to be a 'hip' mother by adopting an asian baby girl, its all the rage back then, before african babies.

the middle eastern husband, was more like..okay...fine, lets go with it, i might as well. both didnt care for the baby.

finally she gets some mixed, blonde babies, n they r both happy. look we have blonde blue eyed children, screw that dark hair dark eyes girl...etc.

n now they want to dump the poor girl. those mofo's abused their status and preti$hit. they should be sent to angola.

Middle eastern husband (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused.gif) I believe you should think of a place a lot more eastern. I mean Poeteray! Not a "Middle Eastern" name. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Not an European name either.
Kinda makes the topic title a bit dumb! "Stupid liberal WHITE couple" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shifty.gif)
