stryker5 You are very right. Our kids and myself keep in contact with him through email, phone calls and, on the weekends, webcam. He still plays the parental role of telling them what they can and can not do and getting on to them when they are doing something wrong....

I ask this question because I work in Corrections and it amazes me how many people fail to realize just how easy it is to become a convict. Do you think that, for the most part, they are all bad people? Do you feel that...
