When my son was little, we had an au pair from Stockholm living with us. We grew very fond of her, and keep in touch to this day. Miko came to us when she was seventeen, and is now a well-known lawyer and political activist in Sweden and is married to a Lutheran minister. She often speaks of her fond memories of her life with us in New York, and we all cherish the relationship. Dare I suggest that the world will be a better place when we all reach out to other cultures?
