No. why do you ask?  What I said has been well documented in the media.  Bob had been on television many times saying how sad he is that he does not have contact with the children.  Also how sad he is that Steve's dreams have all but been discarded.

I ask because I never consider that the media reports anything correctly and I thought you may have known them personally.

I think we can read anything into what has happened, if I wanted to see my grandchildren, with regard to what I might want, or think my deceased child might want,  I would not speak of it to the media.......I would respect the decisions made by their remaining parent.

It's beyond silly to choose a path that isolates you from them. (imo)

I think Terri probably has a clearer idea of what Steve may have wanted for his family and his work.

It was not a media report.  It was Bob himself speaking.  There is nothing wrong with saying that you are sad.  If I remember, Steve himself was not entirely happy about the way the zoo was changing, but when there is a stronger person involved.....

I don't think Bob 'chose the path of isolation'.  I doubt that he had a choice.

 

I have met Terri, a long time ago, before her marriage, but only to say hello when introduced. She came to talk to students at the medical school.  I do remember a couple of doctors drooling at her khaki shorts and what they enclosed.

"If I remember"...

"I don't think"...

"I doubt"...

"I have met Terri only to say hello but I do remember the doctor drooling at what was in her shorts"...

All a bit vague to be making assertions about how Terri is raising her and Bobs kids, and how she's running Australia Zoo, and why Bob snr is estranged from his Grandkids wouldn't you say?

the suppositry of all knowledge and wisdom is alive and well and right here on community spirit.

A vet tech speaks at a medical school?

Why not? I can imagine some topics overlapping in both vet and human medical treatment. Possibly even just motivational or inspirational.
