This story about a Greek family shows how a parent can and should deal with a child who commits horrible crimes:
“All these days I have been praying … for God to reveal the truth, for the guilty ones to be revealed. God has done his miracle. The police did their job well. The truth was revealed and the guilty ones were revealed. And I am happy for this, even if my own children were involved. Whoever did something must pay. Everyone must pay, either here or in the next life.”
Exactly the opposite of John Walker-Lindh’s dad, and the parents of that idiot college kid who was trying to draw a smiley face across America with mailbox bombs.
