OMG. You have really had a heck of a time. Bless your heart, I wish I had some words of wisdom to say to you, but you brought them up the best you could --- you taught them right from wrong. THEY MADE THEIR OWN DECISIONS. Now they have to face the consequences. YOU didn't do this. It's their own fault. Yes, you will suffer too, but you must look at it as they are paying for their wrong-doing. You did what you were supposed to do. You did ALL you could do as a single mother. Perhaps if their father hadn't been such a jerk, and had manned up and been the father he was supposed to be, they would have turned out better -- but that didn't happen. They didn't have the father they should have had. They had the MOTHER they needed, YES. But sometimes that's not enough, and it's not your fault.

You may have to strengthen yourself if they are sentenced to some time, but at least you will know they are not out getting in trouble and gettiing shot! You'll always know where they are.

My son has been in prison too, and I worried and fretted for awhile -- but then I settled down and realized that he had a roof over his head, and he was learning something. He hasn't been in trouble since he got out 4 years ago. I wish you the very best my friend. God bless you and please take care of YOU. Hugs, Lee
