I am so thankful to have had the chance to watch this.
So much thoughtful TRUTH.
So much genuine CARE.
Reminding each of us that a child's rights are far greater than just a good education and "safety".
Reminding, or possibly challenging us to think for the first time of an orphanage in a whole new way.....SHORT TERM. TEMPORARY. And most importantly, LAST RESORT.
Children in families....within their own communities when possible.
Just as it is here in the US.
Recognizing that rather than removing vulnerability, orphanages often intensify it.
There ARE other ways to help which are clearly outlined in the video.
May each and every one of us allow our good intentions to always preserve FAMILY.
