Worth a Look

on

Today is a momentous occasion -- I went from 53 tabs open on my phone's internet browser to just 9! 

Some of those tabs were fascinating articles I've been saving to share with others. It's a bit eclectic, but each one is definitely worth the read. See below to learn about Japanese Shut-Ins, what happened to those Romanian orphans, my son's amazingly cool mission president and companion, parenting practices from other cultures that make ours seem anxious, the next step for mRNA technology, and a few about covid, of course.



Stories from Around the World



I remember hearing a lot about Romanian orphans 20 years ago. Interesting look at where some of them have ended up. The loss of secure attachments in the early years can be so damaging:  The Romanian Orphans Are Adults Now 

The situation in China is still heartbreaking.  Inside China's 'thought transformation' camps
This gives a good overview of the situation: The United States Should Formally Recognize Genocide in Xinjiang

On Parenting

I loved this look at how other cultures might find our parenting tactics bizarre:  ‘Hunt, Gather, Parent’: Timeless Advice for Parents


On Faith

This is my son's mission president and companion! Really incredible people: Faith Matters: Mormon couple on a mission to share gospel 

I haven't watched the Netflix series, but this is still cool: The forgiveness story missing from Netflix’s ‘Murder Among the Mormons’ 

On the Pandemic

On to some pandemic-related news. That mRNA technology might really do some cool things!

Written by an ER doc in NYC, this touching letter to his past self reminded me of how scary and unknown it all was during those early days:  ‘It Won’t Be OK for A While’ — Reflecting on a Year of Covid-19
