the father dreams of swallowing.

is perhaps his only way to be heard.

by the simplicity and power of those words...

(Pediatrician) If you're not frustrated,
he won't be.

1147
01:28:03,458 --> 01:28:06,250
(Pediatrician) He's what you are,...

1148
01:28:06,291 --> 01:28:09,583

That's why you must
give yourselves peace.

1154

So, he'll also give you peace.

1155

being with him,...

1161
01:28:59,291 --> 01:29:03,333

(Pediatrician) If you accept the baby,
she will too.

1164

(Pediatrician) You have to move to acceptance,
you have to accept him.

1165

Things can change
only if first you accept them.

to buy them, remember? - (Nicola) I'm off.
