Do you think it's wiser for them to risk their children's life on a raft across the Atlantic Ocean? I think Castro should get his inhuman grip off the Cuban peoples neck and let the parents decide what is best for their children. After all, isn't that what all of you have been arguing for with regard to Elian? It's not abandonment when you leave your children with a relative or friend while you travel abroad. As a matter of fact, I've done it myself on one occasion. You're darn right Castro should let those children join their mothers in America. Why the heck not? Michael

jhild, i hope you have your tongue in your cheek here -g- ... i agree with Michael on this one - a place that prohibits its citizens from leaving, or from taking their children with them, is not a nation - it is a prison. The US seems to be demonstrating that it is not a prison, in according to Juan Miguel his right to raise his child where he pleases ... so ok, now it's Fidel's turn to get human. [edit] - yeah, tongue in cheek - from a later post - "You are sounding like a bleeding heart conservative." lol ... cheers
