Displaced Children, Homesick and Unsure

September 14, 2005 · Michele Norris has spent a week in Louisiana covering the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. In the first of her reports, she visited the shelter at the Istrouma Baptist church in Baton Rouge, temporary home to 600 evacuees from New Orleans. Now, Norris returns to the Istrouma shelter to see how some of the children are doing. Many are missing home, and unsure if they will ever go back.

I almost had to pull over.

3. How sad
:cry: At least they've got some new friends who can relate to them. :(

Who knows, maybe they'll have lifelong friends from this. That'd be the only good thing that came from this and George Bush failed them. Their testimonies are so sad. :cry: They all sound so grown up too. The innocence of kids.
