Clearly, it seems to me, the families have accepted the children who came into their midst. And the children seem to have attached.

The families care, and . . .maybe the journalists will follow these children and families everywhere can learn something? I personally believe that humans need not just parents, but extended families, and the way we live these days, it has messed things up.
Thank you for posting this article.

To me, it's amazing to see how important safe attachment is and how profound it is.

I'm so happy that they decided to leave the boys with the people they are attached with and feel safe with. It says a lot to me about them, that they chose to do that. I respect them for becoming friends and their opinion about the religious differences of the two families.

I really enjoyed reading it and the smile it gave my heart!
