What do the Experts have to Say?

A few of my articles are written by Clifford J. Levy. Now I bet your wondering who that is and how does he relate to the topic of orphanages. Well the truth is, Levy is just a reporter that has been assigned to write about what is happening with Russia’s systems. Now I know that doesn’t sound like a very good resource, but his articles provide good information about what is happening. The fact that he is specifically assigned to this topic means he has to study it out more and research it. In fact, he has been over in Moscow collecting information and interviewing experts on the matter. He quotes these experts quite often in his articles; some of whom are: Boris L. Altshuler(director of Right of a Child), Yelena B. Mizulina(Chairwomen of the parliamentary committee of family and children), and Lidiya Y. Slusareva(Director of orphanage No. 11). Although Levy may not be an official expert on the matter he uses valid information obtained from experts whom he quotes and gives credit to in his articles.
My second article is written by Nataliya Vasilyeva and Kristin M. Hall. The reason I chose this article is because it directly quotes the family that started this whole adoption issue in Russia. None of the other articles really tell about why this family sent their adopted son back to the orphanage. This article quotes their feelings and what was happening with the little boy. Not only does it directly quote them but it also directly quotes people like Joseph LaBarbera, who specializes in psychological children evaluation and has worked with Russian orphans. The information presented in this article is from people who have a part to play in all of the commotion; whether it be they started it or they are experts trying to help solve the matter.
