      I loved this so much that I have returned to watch it over and again! I sent it out as well. Let me just make an observation, First the big sister not only poured herself into him, but if you noticed she got up to run to him yet did not fail to stop, squeeze her new husband's shoulder in a loving gesture. That gesture means "I have to go to him now, however I am with you. "In other words, she cares for people and is sensitive to their needs. Next, that little boy cried at the prospect of losing his big sister the way a child would if he learned that his mother remarried and is leaving home without him. The bond was almost umbilical!

Family or not, if someone causes you nothing but physical or emotional harm, they can and should be cut out of your life.

Telling someone that nobody loves them, kicking them, rallying others to bully them is NOT being strict. That is being blatantly abusive.

    The part that amazes me is the fact that he has the courage to say what he felt in front of everyone.

    All I can saw is wow. I have watched this about 100 times. This young man has a HEART OF GOLD. The Love for his sister shows in his tears of joy. On a side note, if I was him I wouldn't want to lose her as a sister either. She is a beautiful young lady and the love for him she has, shows buy her reaction to his speech and the way she hugged him!!! Love stories like this!!!!!
