Eli ns family was not so 'nuclear', it was divorced, and his mother is dead. His father is very much alive and entirely adequate to his rearing. Whether you like his politics or choice of country of residence or not. There is no way Juan Miguel could have rescued his son by going to Miami. The relatives stated baldly from an early stage that they would not release the boy peacefully. Without submitting to, or pretending to submit to, the exile dogma he might not have survived the attempt. Suppression of dissent by the FNCA-types, while not as fully-documented as that by Castro, is well-known. 'Our way or the high way' - well he took the high way and went to the capital, Washington. Smart move, imho. And, it worked. Sorry.
