Forsyth Woman & GLA Seperate Scenarios

Just to clarify the superfast blurb mentioned during the 6 o'clock news on WAND this evening, I believe the commentary about God's Littlest Angels was intended to explain that GLA has presently in its care in Haiti seventy children whose family status is as of yet undetermined.  Therefore, these children are not available for adoption, but rather, are considered displaced children until they can be reunited with family members lost since the quake or clearly and legally determined to be orphans. 

Secondly, this has no bearing on the one-line that preceded this story about a "Forsyth woman" whose children are still "being held."  Yes, we are still waiting on our children, but it is a scenario completely distinct from the GLA interview.

God bless GLA, and gratitude to WAND for commemorating the 6 month anniversary of the earthquake in Haiti.  It is with hesitancy that I type this entry, as I prefer not to sound off as a critic; it is simply that absolute accuracy in public messages is critical to appropriate outcomes for vulnerable children.
