Mrs. Doubtfire Page #10

It's the new baby-sitter.

Come on, guys! Get up! Let's go!

Come on.

It's gonna be all right.

Chris, wait right over there. Everybody.

Daddy!

Hi.

- What's goin' on?

- I'm here to pick you up.

Your dad's gonna take you

for a few hours every day after school.

Really?

What about the courts? That legal stuff.

- Ask your mom.

- I took care of it.

No more supervised visits.

No more court liaison.

- Just us?

- Just us.

Go get Mr Bear.

- Go get your stuff. Hurry up.

- All right.

- Would you like to come in?

- I'll wait outside.

OK.

Thank you.

See ya.

"Dear Mrs Doubtfire - Two months ago

my mom and dad decided to separate. "

"Now they live in different houses. "

"My brother Andrew says that we aren't

a real family any more. Is this true?"

"Did I lose my family?"

"Is there anything I could do

to get my parents back together?"

"Sincerely, Katie McCormick. "

Oh, my dear Katie.

You know, some parents get along

much better when they don't live together.

They don't fight all the time

and they can become better people.

Much better mommies and daddies for you.

And sometimes they get back together.

And sometimes they don't, dear.

And if they don't,

don't blame yourself.

Just because they don't love each other

doesn't mean that they don't love you.

There are all sorts of

different families, Katie.

Some families have one mommy,

some families have one daddy,

or two families.

Some children live with their uncle or aunt.

Some live with their grandparents,

and some children live with foster parents.

Some live in separate homes

and neighborhoods

in different areas of the country.

They may not see each other for days,

weeks, months or even years at a time.

But if there's love, dear,

those are the ties that bind.

And you'll have a family

in your heart forever.

All my love to you, poppet.

You're going to be all right.

Bye-bye.
