Adoption in China
By Peggy Gurrad


Pingxiang

A Nanchang resident says this about Ping Xiang:  "Ping Xiang is a small city in the mountains.  It's main industry is the coal industry.   Everybody likes to eat hot pepper."  And a former resident of Pingxiang sends even more information about Pingxiang.

I first heard of this orphanage when a family received a referral in August, 1997 although they were later told the orphanage was in Anyuan.  This family later had this referral withdrawn because they were a special needs family and this child was "too healthy".   Later this girl was designated as "special needs" because of a a subsequently diagnosed condition and was adopted through a waiting child list in December 1998 from the Pingxiang orphanage.

Since then many children have been adopted from Pingxiang, including a couple of the schoolchildren we've been sponsoring through Amity.  See comments sent by adopting parents.


There is now an Yahoo Group list for families who have or are waiting to adopt from Pingxiang.  You can subscribe by sending a message to Pingxiang-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
