Crime and punishment - of an unjust sorts...

I think that this is an isolated situation and that any child can become whatever it is he/she chooses to become, needless to say, rather than inheriting the mistakes of his/her parents.

Teasing the children is bullying, and that should be strongly discouraged both in the schools and in the society.

Vandana! You may not agree with what I am going to write.But, what was the mother doing during those tough days of the children? I can understand the difficulties of the lady in trying hard to make ends meet and struggling through the day to get some income to feed many mouths. But, she might have also tried to give some support and instil some sense of values, and with the help of the eldest child rein in the younger ones . I know it is very very tough and it is easier to pass judgements.But, having given birth to children it also beocmes her responsibility to do her best in getting some sort of cohesion and proper sense of values in the family. We have seen widows bring up their children.Agreed there has been some stigma and it is miserable for the children but if the woman is of exraordinary strength of character this can get mitigated.The solution could have [I reiterate that it 'could have ' come from within by proper direction from the mother in the initial stages.

hi vandy first off life is not fair, I wish it w as as we could have been spared the past year and a half. I feel for the mom and children of the man who was imprisoned but that is not an excuse for one of the children to grow up and just repeat what his dad had done. I have seen lots of families of crooks who went ahead, lived their lives and grew u p to be really outstanding people. of course if the mom would really parent and try to take away the sting of their dad having done what he did it would help immensely.It all depends of the people around the crook. Can they go on and become exemplary citizens in spite of their dad having been a murderer? yes they can and sure it will be hard but they will overcome the stigma and thrive. the will to do right in spite of a hard life has to be instilled in the children from birth right on up.

I think, that u are trying to put many new words as possible in your posts and it's clearly showing that u are trying to show yourself as a native English speaker.. Well, now to coming to ur discussion, this problem stays still throughout the lives of the family.. This could be over taken by going outside of the state and creating a new identity for the family and they will grow by themselves .

Not really, but as i see it, why do kids turn out bad when they are grown up? Do they really have to be like their parent/parents, just because they were teased and had a hard life. They should know what is wrong and what not. I won't fall for that " i had a bad and hard childhood crap." It won't make no difference to me. If you want to behave like a a$$hole, go ahead, don't try to B.S. me. I have been there, done that and have the mug for prove. Did that make sense to you, Vannie? TATA.

I am not clear on which point, you wanted our reaction?

Here the mother, relatives and society have to tell the children about the repercussions of entering into bad activities. Show the good picture in front of them about leading a good life and the peace thus derived out of it. This requires patience but it is everyone's duty.

There does seem to be a disconnect in the families of some criminals. Also, there is the "gangs" glorifying crime. Now, I've met kids of criminals who have turned out quite well, because their criminal parent was in jail and his (or her) bad influence is out of the child's life or because they've seen what can happen.

All babies are born good. The way they are brought up plays a big role in molding a child. Our society does not encourage children of criminals. Hereditary can also play some role in this. Had I made sense too vannie?

Yes vandana, this is a sad story. But I appreciate the kids. They were in odd situation. They struggled and managed to face the live. Why they were teased? None came forward to rescue them. Someone can punish anyone whom he or she loves. We all have some social responsibility.

All the happening in the Universe a phenomenon of means and end. Life is very critical. In any action there must have a reason behind. Some reasons are easy to describe. Some are hard. A married guy having lovely kid..... looked like a a happy family. But The guy commits crime. In my believe no people are bad no people are good. In every human there is a saint and a devil in him. Now human character is depend how much an individual furnishes him good quality and suppress his devilish quality. Human behavior is slave of circumstances. Each and every human being can commits crime in inevitable circumstances. As your example every criminal is dad, brother, son husband .... what so ever. In humanity ground I feel pity to the criminal. Because they are very weak person and leaned towards circumstances. They are not strong enough to restrain humanity and does something wrong. From outlook we see the life a very beautiful journey. But in fact life is not so easy to live. Some people loose their temper suppressed by some emotion ( like greed, envy, anger, lust.... etc...). They are not mentally strong enough to Carry the human charter. Moreover that reasoning is also another aspect of this. Generally each and every people find some reasoning in him mind in support of their any activity. Most criminal think that their criminal activities are justified. It is very weak reasoning and justification. So in criminal ground they are guilty.... but in humanity ground they are very weak personality. They are depressed or suppressed.

May this particular case serve as warning to those who are about to commit a crime.
