A letter to mom   Reply to topic

A mother passing by her daughter's bedroom was astonished to see the bed was nicely made and everything was picked up. Then she saw an envelope propped up on the center of the bed. It was addressed, "Mom". With the worst premonition, she opened the envelope with trembling hands:

"Dear Mom, it is with great regret & sorrow that Im writing 2 u. I had 2 elope with my new boyfriend because I wanted 2 avoid a scene with u & Dad. Ive been finding real passion with him & he is so nice, even with all his piercings, tattoos, beard & motorcycle clothes. But its not just the passion Mom, Im pregnant & he said that we will b very happy. He already owns a trailer in the woods & has a stack of firewood 4 the whole winter. He wants 2 have many more children with me & now that is one of my dreams 2. He taught me that marijuana doesnt really hurt anyone & we'll b growing it 4 us & trading it with his friends 4 all the cocaine & ecstasy we want. In the meantime we'll pray that science finds a cure 4 AIDS so he can get better, he sure deserves it! Dont worry Mom, Im 15yrs old now & I know how 2 take care of myself. Someday Im sure we'll b back 2 visit so u can get 2 know your grandchildren.

Your daughter, Sophie...

P.S. Mom, none of the above is true. I'm over at the neighbor's house. I just wanted 2 remind u that there are worse things in life than my report card that's in my desktop drawer. I love u. Call me when it is safe 2 come home..."
