Orbiting The Son Orbiting the Son is an in depth look at Greens experience with parenthood. The writer explains how Erez, his adopted son, had, at a tender age of fourteen months, created his own family. Although the writer and Andy, his husband, were the parents Erez had found for himself other people who learned to care and love him like real family members would. From childless men and women to aged people who had no one to care for or care for them, Erez found an aunt, uncle or grandparent in these people. The fussed and pampered over Erez as would a real parent. So, gradually Erez seemed to become the pivotal factor that brought all these people together. As Green saw it, because the people shared a common love and adoration for Erez they all became a family. Green explains that children in traditional families do not have the fortune of adopting a family of their own like Erez could. Erez was always surrounded by people who loved him and traditional families don’t always guarantee this to a child. All of this is solely because the binding force in an unconventional family is the child.
