If it was phrased that way, I'd have been much more understanding in my initial read of the thread - I was also skeptical to begin with, but reading FirstLady's posts, it does sound like this is simply a way of making the removal and return to Canada easier on the kids by having family there.
Thank you, this is pretty accurate, though the removal of father is unlikely. He understands and accepts the process.
