声音1：俄罗斯议员曾试图强制要求孤儿院接收携带艾滋病病毒的婴儿。但是结果不能令人满意。叶莲娜表示：

voice 4: "...A new law was introduced which required orphanages to accept these children. We tried once - at an orphanage nearby... But after we went there, we understood that the level of AIDS fear is so high that our child would be isolated and alone again. So we did not give this child away."
声音4：曾经推行过要求孤儿院接受这些儿童的新法律。我们在附近的孤儿院试过一次。但是，我们到那里以后发现，人们对艾滋病的恐惧程度是如此之高，以致于这些孩子会再次被孤立。所以我们不能把这些孩子送出去。

voice 2: Yelena hopes that one day, the people of Russia will not be as afraid of people who have HIV. She wants people to know that HIV positive people are no different than anyone else. They have many good qualities and skills. And she hopes that children can help to change the old ideas people have about HIV positive people.

voice 4: "Maybe when people see how wonderful and skilled our children are, this may change their ideas."
