Some Coping Mechanisms Are Better Than Others

From a disaster mental health website:

One family who lost their home in a fire filled balloons, each representing something they lost in the fire. The family gathered at the site of their home and said a few words about what each item meant and then released the baboons in the air.

Releasing baboons into the air would certainly take MY mind off a house fire.

    What does it take to "release a baboon into the air"?

    Hmm maybe they are hoping people will find the balloons and buy then the items they lost? Beats me.. still scratching my head over this one.
