LITTLE BOY LOST    Adoption can be a blessing for all parties involved but financial incentive can poison the well, especially in the world of foreign adoption.  As reported recently in a featured story in Mother Jones magazine, journalist and anthropologist, Scott Carney zeroed–in on the case of a kidnapped toddler in Chennai, India.  A decade ago,  Sivigama  put her little boy, Subash down on the street next to a water pump just feet from her home as neighbors watched.  She dashed-off for a few moments.  Just at that time a gardener from a local orphanage snatched Subash who would later be adopted under a new name with bogus documents.  Today an American family in the mid-west is raising a young boy who will soon be a teenager, but their son is also Sivigama’s son, Subash.   From Chennai, India we talk with the investigative reporter who found Subash and his adoptive family, Scott Carney.
