Abstract:

Join Lisa Ling, host of National Geographic Explorer, as she delves into the traditional Chinese preference that leans toward boys, so girls are often hidden or abandoned. Today, more than one quarter of all babies adopted from abroad by American families come from China. Watch as these families travel to China to meet their new daughters for the first time and witness firsthand China's gender gap, its roots, and its possible repercussions.
