Napoleon, thank you for sharing this story, the struggles, conflicts, confusions and challenges. Watching Ian's face as he talked about Arran, and the ways he played with "his" children reveals a loving heart with no dysfunction. Love, care and all that it takes to be with a troubled child in a healthy way, and the gentleness of being an influence with young children that empowers flourishing is a wonder to behold. Exploitation that feels like "love" to a troubled youngster breaks my heart.
