What I find strange about Becky and Sergio is also, as Lark said, they are "moving on". They said they had intentions of maybe sending the boys back to school this week, but no, now maybe it will be next week (but there is no contingency related to Isabel). They get very animated talking about the boys' games and the opera, to the point I almost forget that this is all about Isabel.
And they ask for everyone to pray, pray, pray, pray. Yes, they mentioned keeping your eyes open a few times also. But mostly, it's just about praying, not looking for Isabel. And there is no anger, no outrage, no fear about whether Isabel is afraid, is she being tortured, is she alive? It's as though they act like she might be on vacation somewhere and the worst case could be that she's hungry ("are they feeding her?").
I don't know, maybe this is an extreme form of denial?? I don't think I have ever seen the family of a kidnapping victim seem so 'light' or unconcerned about her plight. I just see absolutely no fear or anger in their behavior. Yet, they have tons and tons of gratitude for everyone around the world. I think my overwhelming feeling if my child went missing would be fear and anger. Maybe their faith really does keep them strong, or again, maybe it's an extreme case of denial. Two weeks missing, but their focus seems to have shifted to getting the boys back to school, into their sports, singing in the opera and going back to work. I can't help but believe I would remain completely incapacitated by my child's unknown whereabouts and disposition.
This is all so mysterious to me. I do want to believe the parents are uninvolved.
