Vocab # 3

2 12 year old girls who had previously lived a fairly pedestrian life just discovered that they had been switched at birth. After the adventitious discovery, the parents were offered the bona fide offer to switch the girls back, but both the children and parents refused. It began when the ex husband of one of the mothers refused to pay child support because of the lack of resemblance to his daughter. His ex wife tried to extenuate the situation by getting multiple DNA tests, revealing that neither parent was biologically related to their daughter. Both parents were completely obfuscated. The event was obviously a cataclysm in both families lives. After importuning their parents, the girls lives are now very much intertwined. Many would think that the experience would have impaled the family bond, but in reality it brought them closer, and in many ways even edified them. They all had to deviate from their normal lives, and expand their once parochial view of life. In the end it turned out to be an optimum situation, and gave them a much more ambiguous view of the world around them. The family brought the hospital to court, and the judge glowered at the culprits, ordering that they pay the family 160,000 dollars for emotional damage.
