DVD Reviews of National Geographic - China's Lost Girls

DVD Review: China's Lost Girls
Summary: 5 Stars

It is a great story about the Chinese Law about the one child rule and how many want boys, leaving many girls in orphanges.

DVD Review: excellent resource
Summary: 5 Stars

This documentary is an excellent resource for those who are considering adopting from China. I wish it was longer, but there is only so much detail they can fit into a 40 min documentary.

DVD Review: Heart-warming video!
Summary: 5 Stars

Excellent video for those embarking on the adoption journey to China. My wife and I were both crying - but they were tears of joy!

DVD Review: China's Lost Girls
Summary: 4 Stars

This video was very eye opening on the plight of China's orphans especially girls. It is informative, insightful and tastefully presented.

DVD Review: If you are NOT in the adoption process...
Summary: 3 Stars

Informative video at the introductory level: - I was hoping for more information and data, being the video from NatGeo - for instance, maybe some footage of different orphanages, not only the (obviously) model one where the group of adoptive parents are taken.

Description of National Geographic - China's Lost Girls

Due to cultural social and economic factors traditional Chinese preference leans toward boys so girls are often hidden aborted or abandoned. As a result tens of thousands of girls end up in orphanages across China. Today more than one quarter of all babies adopted from abroad by American families come from China. Lisa Ling joins some of these families as they travel to China to meet their new daughters for the first time. Along this emotional journey she shares in the joy of these growing families and also witnesses firsthand China's gender gap its roots and its possible repercussions.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?DOCUMENTARIES/MISC.
