I believe that you're talking about the article in Washington Post from December 2005.

The correct answer is A. They feel they are now the parents to these children

This is the specific quote where you can find it:

"When some people call them ‘tsunami orphans’ and call Nambikkai an orphanage, I feel offended because we [he and his wife] are their parents and we are still alive," said Mr. Paramesvaran.
