Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So the question I had was,

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,while they were still in war zones\Nor refugee camps?

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, I approached my PhD supervisor,

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with the idea of using my academic skills\Nto make some change in the real world.

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,then let's do it.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Let's find ways to see if parent programs
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,can be useful for families\Nin these contexts."
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So for the past five years,

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the first step must obviously be\Nto ask them what they're struggling with,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,right?
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I mean, it seems obvious.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But it's often those\Nthat are the most vulnerable

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I travelled to refugee camps\Nin Syria and in Turkey,

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I listened.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I listened to their parenting challenges,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I listened to their parenting struggles,

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as all I could do was\Nhold hands with them,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and just join them in silent\Ncrying and prayer.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They told me about their struggles,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,they told me about the rough,\Nharsh refugee camp conditions
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that made it hard to focus on anything\Nbut practical chores
