My parents were hard-core when it came to morals.
Not only would they sue, they would press criminal charges as well.
My parents were amazing people. They would move heaven and earth to help the family. But don’t ever call them from jail; they would let you rot.
My Dad always told me that if I were ever arrested for something I didn’t do, he would do whatever it would take to get me out of jail.
He also told me that if I were arrested for something I actually did, not to waste my phone call on him. I was never going to test that out; he was a man of his word.
Mine were as well but they went soft hearted or soft headed with their grandchildren.
We’d never get away with the stuff they did.
But nothing compared to stealing from granny. Bridge too far.
My dad, too. My sibs and I thought it was so hard when we were kids; but I'm grateful every day of my life now that he was a straight, straight, straight, straight arrow. He also was orphaned rather young, and had to make his own way in the world. Saint Daddy.
