Even mindless TV all day would be better than this. Would the institutes allow outsiders to come in and teach art, music, sports? If toys and supplies were brought in, would they remain for the kids' use, or would they disappear? The institutes reflect the larger society's view that these children should not be seen, so it's an uphill battle.hoonewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00077170160087493334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7297657180254499319.post-2107425221058099302010-11-30T19:57:24.833-05:002010-11-30T19:57:24.833-05:00God knew in advance where you would go and what yo...God knew in advance where you would go and what you would see when you sought your son.

I feel your pain for these forgotten boys. And it is heart wrenching to know that this story must be repeated over and over, in many places where those who are physically or mentally challenged are shut away. Your writing about this will bring a greater awareness, and I hope, a greater committment to share the things we have with those who have not. Christ reminds us: "Inasmuch as ye have done it unto the least of these, you have done it unto Me." How His heart must break as He sees His precious children being treated this way; and how His heart must overflow when He sees people, such as yourselves, save even one of these.
