We live close by - Germany and Austria are just an hour or two away by car. My children are half-German. We are confronted with these disturbing news everyday that I now have to turn off the car radio when I drive my boys around. What I find even more disturbing is how these events reflect on our society and our norms - indifference, fierce protection of personal space and privacy, isolation. In fact, people are so isolated they can be locked up and abused for over 2 decades or get pregnant 3 times without the neighbors or even family members noticing or knowing.
