In the wake of the Paris attacks, here is a heart-warming conversation between a father and his young son which may restore your faith in humanity. In an interview conducted by Canal+ TV show Le Petit Journal, a reporter is seen asking a young boy whether he understands why extremists killed people in Paris on Friday. The boy’s father responds to his son in that moment, answering his need right then for comfort and the right level of honesty.

The boy, Brandon, who was visiting the memorial site outside the Bataclan Theatre with his father, responds without hesitation, “Yes, because they’re really, really mean. Bad guys are not very nice.” And we have to be really careful because we have to change house.” At that moment his father, Angel, enters into a moving conversation about the attacks, reassuring his son that they would not move away from Paris because “France is our home”.
