    Your birth mother's story tugs at my heartstrings. She was given so few advantages and so little help, in a very hostile world. It is so sweet to see you giving her the extra latitude for that. I would like to hug her myself.

    Dearest Alex, I believe your birth Mom had a hole filled in her heart when she met you. The relief of knowing that your adoptive parents gave you a fabulous start in life must be overwhelming. Thank you for responding to all of this with love. ❤

    Alex, have followed your story from the start. Tatiana had probably never known real love in her young life, until you found her; it's in her heart now when she looks at you. And she has become more demonstrative than before. ❤

    This is the kind of stories I love to hear Alex. You are so lucky to have 4 parents in your life and Tatiana is blessed to have you in hers. No one should judge her, we are only humans.

    Sasha, you continue to show your great heart. Your mom was in an orphanage system that tried to do right by its children generally. The institutional caregivers I met in Omsk and in Moscow cared deeply about the children under their care. But there weren't enough of them, and it's one of the lowest paying jobs around. The children grow up without family, so have no idea what it means to be in a family. Your non-judgmental attitude shows you to be an old soul with wisdom beyond your years. Don't listen to the naysayers, just keep blessing your mother with your presence whether in person or through social media. У тебя действительно доброе сердце.

    Alex, I am American. I came to the USA 🇺🇸 as a child, immigrated with my parents from the Soviet Union. I have always wanted to go back and adopt. I don’t have Russian citizenship. But I have a Russian soul, like you. You have an “old” soul. And your story, your desire to make sense of your family upline, keep connecting w your birth parents is really inspiring.
    When in Minnesota,
    Please ring me up. I’d love for you to talk about how adoption change your life. More people need to know importance of adoption. As you can see w your mom’s life choices, orphans in Russia who never her adopted never really become successful adults. If they make it past 40 it’s a miracle. If they avoid drugs, alcoholism, prostitution it’s also a miracle.
    More people need to learn about importance of adopting and being open to adopting.
    Sending you much love.

    In one way, you are “parenting” Tatiana - by providing the experience of family love and connection, which orphanages really can’t do well.

    Birth mom being an orphan herself, learning all important things about life in an orphanage was not taught how to love, care and did not have anyone loving and caring for her. My best friends mom is from an orphanage too, the same story. Orphanage children just never saw or experience warm and close family interactions, they don't know how to perform them. It's very wise from Alex to take his birth mom as she is. Warm, open, caring child is something very new for Tatiana in her 40s or 50s. We don't change at that age. It's just what it is. It would be better for Tatiana to live closer to Alex because I don't see anyone in the world who would care for her in her elderly years. But it doesn't look like she would ever leave her invironment.
    Thank you Alex for showing us your journey, for sharing and for helping others to follow.

    Don't forget to look into the political aspects of your mother's and Grandmother's upbringing. That also plays a big part in family life. Communism as I understand it was treating humans as machines and family life took a back seat to the government, as well as keeping people in poverty except a select few. As far back as the sixties I heard stories of the deplorable conditions of orphanages and the neglect of babies to "toughen"them up.
    Let your mother know through you she's loved the world over.♥️

      As with any political system, it's always leaning towards what ever those in power want you to know about the other side. I'm glad you had a happy up bringing. I was very upset by the way Black's were treated in the late fifties and early sixties. That's why I watch the BBC, national news and DW news so I can get a better rounded view.

    I've been following since you first went to Russia - amazing progress, you inspire many across the globe. You have amazing adopted parents who taught you how to love and live your passion. Your birth parents are amazing people who embrace you the best way they can, but more importantly they appreciate your adopted parents, your birth parents are not absent of love. I love watching this channel - thank you for sharing your journey.

    I certainly do not think I’m perfect, but if we all put ourselves in other people’s shoes this world would be a better place. This is coming from someone who has lived a privileged life, but suffered a traumatic brain injury last March and was in a brain trauma unit for six weeks, and does suffer after effects which most people would be unable to comprehend, me included, before this happened. A huge lesson for me. Before this happened I did foster children who weren’t fortunate to come from the best of circumstances. I so admire you on your journey, and the love you have for your birth mother and father. Best wishes and lots of happiness on your journey 🙏
