“But if those two young people went to Haiti because they felt pressure to do so because of her parent’s position in the government and in the organization...that is something their family will have to live with.”

In the point, I was trying to make, I think the analogy would be a scene from the movie Jjaws“.

There is a scene where all the people are down at the beach, and nobody is swimming. The mayor goes over to one of the elderly couples with their grandchildren And strongly suggest he needs them to go into the water to swim because nobody’s going to go swimming until somebody else goes swimming.

The look on their faces as they get up clearly shows they are somehow beholden to the mayor for something or other, so they reluctantly take their children into the shark infested water.

I hope this girl didn’t end up going down there to do ministry because she felt obligated to her father to do so. Granted, that is her business, but people like that in a place like Haiti…
