W2 reading journal : Russia: Families of Girls switched at birth get $100,000 each

In this article, it mentioned story about families of girls switched at birth get $100 000 each. The father don't accept his daughter, Irina, because she didn't look like him. Then a ADN test showed the result that he or his ex-wife were not Irina's biological parent. An official investigation found out Irina's biological who raised Anna. Now they knew each of families raised switched daughter. Then they get a lot of money from court, but they feel sad and pained , because money can't ease the pain. For 12 years, they are close to each other and know clearly about the daughter who is not  their biological daughter. Now, they will live with their biological daughter after 12 years. 

I think this problem only in the movies,after I read this article. Now, I know everything will happen anytime, but I hope their kid not feel pained after they found biological parents. I wish they would be happy when they have two families.

  2. Hi Hang,
    Glad to read your another blog after our class is finished. The article you chose is always inspiring. I still remember the one you chose in RC. The child smoker issue is astonishing for me.
    Keep study hard: )

  3. I wonder if you have a similar saying in your country too, but we say "parents who raise you mean a lot more than your biological parents" in Japan. Even if I find myself in the same situation as those two girls did (that my parents turned out to be not my birth parents), I think I would still stick with my parents simply because I cannot imagine my life without them!
