After meeting the foster mums we all walk to the extra orphanage where Marisa was brought as a baby. We were told there are about five hundred children living in this orphanage. There are tens of thousands of children just like them across China. All around these are abandoned children who have never been adopted. Some of them may well of been here when Marissa was. Many of them could spend their entire childhood here.

It’s hard to imagine what Marissa is feeling I mean being here as a orphanage you know all these kids were abandoned like she was, but she has a different kind of life now, and I just wonder what she is thinking when she looks like she’s a sort of a little discombobulated and with good reason.

Thank god, she has been walk out here a few minutes.
Yeah, you know, I mean she could be, you know, still here.
I mean there are just so many of them, so many kids.

When it’s finally time to go, saying goodbye is tougher everyone.
Thank you so much.
It’s okay.
Bye…

Is it not allowed for, for mother to find out the gender of the child? Definitely not. Why? Because in the village they prefer boy babies. If she had a girl , and I told her, she would have an abortion. What else things these doctors do is they jumping this ban and they go and talk to people in the villages about birth control and family planning. They take its to a village of Shunyu in the center of China, where doctors go door to door telling the villagers that girls are producted of members of society , too . It’s part of the big campaign. There even signs like these in many villages would say that
