> Aleksei, children are rarely enthusiastic about the idea of leaving their parents.
I don't think young infants think in terms of parents and non-parents, especially if the Super Happy People make their offer before the infants have gotten accustomed to their parents.
> Why would they trust the Super Happy People?
Why do they trust their parents? How are the Super Happy People at a disadvantage?
If there is distrust to overcome, the Super Happy People would probably arrange for the infants to directly feel their intentions and feelings.
