S03E06 | Choosing Family: Adopting in Sri Lanka * SINHALA & TAMIL SUBTITLES AVAILABLE* 

EDIT CORRECTION : Avanti Perera is an Attorney-at-Law and not a Child Probation Lawyer as mentioned on the video. We apologise for the mistake.
How easy is it to adopt a child in Sri Lanka? Why is adoption looked down on by many Sri Lankan families as something that's more of a last resort than a passionate need to raise give a child a safe and loving home? Shanuki meets three ladies - Avanti, Lisa and Vasanthi - each with unique experiences of their own with the system.
