That's what I felt the film was asking us to do with the scenes with the Thai nurse and Lucas. The film emotionally ties you to the kid and so it expects you to sympathize with his anger at the Thai staff. The whole apology scene with the nurse especially.

I could say the same about the scene with Ewan telling his story to the group of survivors at the shelter. Everyone gets super emotional toward his story and then rallies together for him (only) as if they did not experience the exact same or similar things, or the poor guy whose wife and daughter disappeared is somehow less emotionally affecting. Films like this just really bother me.
