Real Bravery
Well, life has a way of putting forth stories with morals. As I am skimming through the paper I see a letter written to praise the father of the young man that recently killed a schoolboy for a cell phone. The father was being praised for doing the right thing and turning in his son when he realized what had transpired.
This brings me to the same discussion about The Brave One when I said it is difficult to know what you would do in a situation till it happens to you. This is one of those questions often tossed out as a mere discussion. Some people insist they absolutely would turn in their own son/father/husband etc. if they knew they had committed a crime. Other people admit that they probably would not.
But this is one of those scenarios where you really cannot know what you will do. You may think you would turn in your child and then when it comes down to it you instead do all you can to hide and protect them. Or on the other hand maybe you think you wouldn’t but then they commit an atrocious crime that you find so objectionable.
So it seems even in real life we can see people being placed in situations where they may do things others may find crazy.
