Questão jurídica principal
Whether the delayed reunification of the two children could still be granted despite expiry of the statutory deadline.
Decisão extraída
Yes. The court held that major family reasons existed and the parents' decision corresponded to the children's best interests.
Fundamentação extraída
The children could join their mother, who was able to care for and integrate them; the alternative placement in Vietnam was provisional and not shown to be the best solution. The lower court did not establish that reunification was manifestly contrary to the children's interests.
