China's adopted children return from overseas to seek their roots

DIANJIANG, China — At an empty concrete lot in southwestern China, Loulee Wilson scoops a handful of stones into a bag — a memento from the site where she believes she was abandoned as a baby.

Wilson, an American college student, was born in China but given away by parents presumed fearful of violating the East Asian country's one-child policy, under which families were punished for having additional children until the strategy was ended eight years ago.
