After we left you on vacation we went to yet another ex-Clevelander's house in Oakland. He and his wife ALSO adopted a little boy and he was completely "out of control!"<br />Whatever you are doing..it is working. I know in my heart that with your guidance Daniel and Selena will go far in life and in this society. My only wish is that there were more Leffew families out there. If there were, the world would be a much better place...Jim Stonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12387924451130690320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-16911254215950973592011-11-06T19:21:35.015-08:002011-11-06T19:21:35.015-08:00As I watched the new trailer, I had a moment when ...As I watched the new trailer, I had a moment when I wondered what people would think of Selena being in the protest. I had to stop and wonder what *I* thought of Selena and Daniel being there--the event could be considered scary enough on its own, but few things are more unsettling to a child than when a parent is overwhelmed with emotion. In the end I decided something similar to what you wrote. It's not a bad thing for people to face the fact that their decisions affect real families. I also don't think the exposure is bad for the kids--any scary feelings Selena might have had would be offset by the steady support and safety you guys provide day in and day out.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-596470286262314702011-11-06T00:37:50.391-07:002011-11-06T00:37:50.391-07:00To me it has always been clear why you include Dan...To me it has always been clear why you include Daniel & Selena in your videos 'cause I've been watching your videos for 2 years now. I think your blog above explains the reason well (and honestly too) to those who might not have been watching your videos.<br /><br />Hope to get to see The Right To Love someday :)Piku83https://www.blogger.com/profile/15317915689182454407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-20620476683609007102011-11-05T21:58:30.907-07:002011-11-05T21:58:30.907-07:00Very well explained, and you guys are such good pa...Very well explained, and you guys are such good parents. I think I would be afraid of a truly perfect parent because there is no such thing, after all my mom will tell you she was not "perfect" but in the end my brother and I turned out to be good, grounded, well adjusted people. <br /><br />I think you are right that you can't "protect" your children from every event and any possible hurt or disappointment in life, it is those sorts of things that help kids grow up to be grounded and well adjusted. Any way your kids are so much better behaved then even many College kids I interact with on a daily basses. So you guys are obviously doing something right.<br /><br />I think the extreme excessive push by many parents to shelter their kids from life has created a generation that dose not actually know how to deal with real life. I can see it in the college age customers at work and even coworkers, they don't know how to deal with anything negative, and have an attitude that the world is owed to them and that they are not responsible for anything even their own actions, and that it is someone else's job to fix all their problems. (I can't tell you how many times I get people very upset with me when I, well the store, don't have something they need and I can't tell them exactly where they can find it but can only give them a few suggestions of other stores that might carry it. I mean literally get pissed at me because I can't tell them that X business that I don't work at carries Y product for sure)aNorthWestViewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03598507140332496283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-51498223145712815452011-11-05T21:33:22.451-07:002011-11-05T21:33:22.451-07:00Are there any other reviews of the movie that you ...Are there any other reviews of the movie that you guys know about?<br />I can't wait to see it for myself!Michael Hardinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09610160406709197670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-587902609826926070.post-12209642366441988992011-11-05T17:38:26.688-07:002011-11-05T17:38:26.688-07:00Well if this blog post doesn't set the record ...Well if this blog post doesn't set the record straight I don't know what will!

I remember how you were saying that if the children no longer wish to be in the videos then you guys were okay with it.
