I hope Diddy’s kids get some nice gifts.
Agree.
Sad that the children have the hardship while having nothing to do with the adult offenders who are their parents.
Sibling problems, too. The famous rock music writer Mikal Gilmore kept his name despite the notoriety of his murderer brother Gary Gilmore. Had Rolling Stone cover stories of David Bowie, John Lennon, Bob Dylan and Aretha Franklin and several books.
Shot in the Heart
by Mikal Gilmore
Synopsis:
Gary Gilmore, the infamous murderer immortalized by Norman Mailer in The Executioner’s Song, campaigned for his own death and was executed by firing squad in 1977. Writer Mikal Gilmore is his younger brother. In Shot in the Heart, he tells the stunning story of their wildly dysfunctional family: their mother, a blacksheep daughter of unforgiving Mormon farmers; their father, a drunk, thief, and con man. It was a family destroyed by a multigenerational history of child abuse, alcoholism, crime, adultery, and murder. Mikal, burdened with the guilt of being his father’s favorite and the shame of being Gary’s brother, gracefully and painfully relates a murder tale....
Children of criminal parents need to know that most people are not criminals and care about them. Not sure exactly how that’s conveyed by toys without a sweet little note about their value and innocence.
Many churches give through Angel Tree.
Very.
