Exhibit captures faces of Utah's young refugees

Thanks for your story on this Nicole. It's good to know there is hope for these children. I would like all of the schools to know about these kids. Is it open to the public? Maybe when I come to Utah I can get a chance to see the pictures. Everyone needs to be loved. I would like to share a video with them somehow. Visit: Debbie West Coon "You Are Loved"(Don't Give Up). Maybe you have a way to get it to them.

This is a good idea to dispell ignorance and prejudice and to promote acceptance and support for foreign born people. I am going to suggest this for our local high school.

It's good to see the human spirit in action! Congrats to all who participated to get this recorded and displayed. A special thanks to the refugee children as they allowed for us to share a glimpse in thier lives.

Too bad that some kids they attend school with have bad influences at home. For them to think they have the right to make fun of others is a direct reflection of their parent's influence. Identify the bullies and punish the parents. I'm tired of society not holding their parents responsible for the way the child acts out in school.

Good kids = good parenting, Bad kids = bad parenting. The number of children acting in a direct contrast to their rearing is marginal.
