Traveling to Seoul to meet the son we had waited 3 1/2 years. We had prayed for our son, underwent physical testing, home studies, referrals, classes & pediatricians. Preparing for him just made us one step closer. Just counting down the days seemed like more years adding up but we knew the wait was so worth it. Our son Jack, Gym Beoul was to be ours and we were to be his forever. His pictures adorned our house and I started to wash his clothes and pack for our journey to Seoul.
Holt International & Holt Korea approved us being parents to our sweet baby boy.
We had problems with the Executive Director in the New Jersey office, Murielle Elfman she became angry with us because we caught her in lies. So much so we tape recorded our last meeting with her. She had the power to end our relationship with our son. We hired an attorney, we have contacted our Senators there is nothing that can be done to reclaim our son because the contract you sign has a clause that you can never sue Holt International and at any time they can walk away from the adoption without reason.
The contract is over reaching denying the U.S. Constitutions right for due process and specifies that under no circumstances are you allowed to enter the judicial process.
Our baby is gone, our hearts are broken and we will always have an empty crib for our little angel.
My tale is to make all aware. Holt International has ended all of our son's rights for love, happiness, education, a home and future we promised him.

I'm sure the child will get a chance at a loving family. Just not you.
ReplyDeleteI think you omitted to tell the whole the story. I have read your story elsewhere. You have stated the grandparents wanted to raise the boy. Then they changed their minds again (probably coerced by Holt).
Can you please tell us what the Executive Director accused you of to disqualify yourselves as adoptive parents? Or would you just like us to take your word that it was unfounded.
Hopefully this child will have the opportunity to grow up knowing his own family, his own people and culture, and the privileges of growing up in a affluent progressive country like Korea.
You seem to need some information about how Holt takes children from their families to give to over-entitled westerners. Here is a history of how Holt brakes up many families http://www.vancetwins.com/67098.html
Remember this child was never yours, the adoption was far from final. You are entitled to nothing.
