A death row inmate awaiting ex*****on, asked as a last wish a pencil and paper. After writing for several minutes, the convict called the prison officer and asked that this letter be handed over to his biological mother.
The letter said …

Mother, if there were more justice in this world, we would be both executed and not just me. You’re as guilty as I am for the life I led.

Remind yourself when I stole and brought home the bicycle of a boy like me?
You helped me to hide the bicycle for my father did not see it.

Do you remember the time I stole money from the neighbor’s wallet?
You went with me to the Supermarket to spend it.

Do you remember when I argued with my father and he left ?
He just wanted to correct me because I cheated in final exams and for that I was expelled.

Mom, I was just a child, shortly after I became a troubled teenager and now I’m a pretty malformed man.
Mom, I was just a child in need of correction, and not an approval.

But I forgive you!
I just want this letter to reach the greatest number of parents in the world, so they can know what makes all people, good or bad …is education you give to your children.

Thank you mother for giving me life and also helping me to lose it.

Your son child offender.

But he who loves him disciplines him promptly “(Proverbs 13: 24).
