Image description

Shirley Be from Nyack, New York, carries her newly-adopted 10-month-old mainland Chinese daughter as she waits to buy a ticket for a flight home at Hong Kong's airport. According to official statistics, about 54,000 children in mainland China were under government care in 2000. Adoption is the only way out for these children, but the process is arduous, often taking years, and only a fraction of needy kids ever get new parents, according to Human Rights in China. Picture taken September 14, 2001. REUTERS/Bobby Yip TO ACCOMPANY FEATURE STORY CHINA-USA-ADOPTION BY/JD
