I hate to burst your bubble on this but there are people who live in Cuba who are quite content to be living in Cuba (Juan Miquel may be among them, and I only use the word "may" because I do not know the man personally).

Many in Russia were happy under Communism and even--yes!!!!--voted for the Communist Party candidates in the last election in considerable numbers.

To say that every person living in a Communist country is unhappy is presuming a falsehood. The father here is to make the choice as to where his son lives, which may be a country whose government you don't like. Our law is that a father is free to do this, even though we may disagree with his judgment. Defiance of the law is unacceptable; if it were, we could all pick and choose those laws and government orders we would obey or disobey.
