And I have been trying my best to explain how he MIGHT have found himself at an airport in Hawaii, with his identification in question and probably STATELESS as a result, and no amount of but he's our grandson was enough to convince the authorities they could hand him over to a couple who had nothing to show that they were who they claimed to be...and it wasn't possible to send him back because knowing where he boarded the aircraft doesn't tell the authorties who he is or his nationality...DOES IT?

I don't care how much different immigration is in the US and Australia, if I were that official, I would also treat him as a refugee. What other classification might there be? He's too young to be an illegal immigrant, someone put him on that aircraft, and didn't provide him with enough ID to get off at the other end and walk out of the airport. That's according to some of what Sven Magnussen is trying to tell us, and it fits.

A couple years later and a couple years older than him, I got separated from my parents at JFK (New York) when coming back from overseas. I just got waved through. No questions asked. No nothing. I had to wait on "our side" while my family went through the passport and baggage check at customs. I even had a big bottle of liquor sticking out my bags that only got a smile from one of the security guys. One would think if JFK wasn't worried about a lone kid, Hawaii wouldn't have batted an eye either. Remember, that was long before 9/11, long before TSA gropes, back when airlines went out of their way to make flying a pleasant experience, and back when stewardesses would accompany kids so they wouldn't get lost or scared.
