I don't understand why their grandma can't take care of them

Why the downvotes? They have a grandma. Why do people think it's better they get tossed into the foster care system and likely separated rather than being placed with existing family

Stop brigading my comment you cowards and actually say something

She’s sick. There is also the language barrier. They don’t speak Serbian, she doesn’t speak English. I wonder if her sister in Canada will take them in.

Ok, I didn't know she was sick. speaking a different language a barrier to being placed with family? I'm not up to date on Ana's family tree so I'm not understanding why my comment has been brigaded

Because your comment has nothing to do with the previous comment? No matter where the children are placed (with family or not), this situation is extremely traumatic, not because of where they are being placed but because their mother was killed and it might have been at the hands of the father.

Yes, speaking the same language as the family you are being placed with should be taken into consideration. Imagine going through something so traumatic and then all of a sudden you're placed in a home where no one speaks your language and you can't even communicate with anyone.

I get what you mean.

When you get down to it, the family doesn’t owe the public an explanation though.

Why the hostility

So you don’t want people to downvote you, you want them to tell you what the problem with your comment is, and when they do tell you, you call them hostile. You’re very curious about this total stranger’s motives for a person who’s completely incapable of self-examination. Or maybe that’s why.
