Carmelina, who was adopted through the Foster Parents Plan, Inc., lives with her mother, two sisters, and two brothers in a single ground floor room in the little town of Guigliano, near Naples. Prior to the child ' s adoption, Carmelina ' s widowed mother tried to make ends meet by doing wash- ing and farm work, which earned her a bare twenty -five dollars a month.
