I use to have some neighbors on my driveway side who had 4 boys. The boys use to climb out their window and come to my house to eat. Mom was to busy frying her brain and dad was gone all the time doing the same thing. There was a point in the kids lives where mom disapeared and dad had the boys. but dad would up and disapear for 30 or 40 days at a time and they would be at my house. When dad whent to jail for drugs his sister came and got the boys and they have been with then ever since.She did a very good job. The oldest is Chris who is 21 and in the marines the other 3 boys are 17, 13,and 12. Well their Aunt passed away yesterday at age 48. Neither parent are able to take care of the younger ones so Chris is getting out of the Marines to help his uncle take care of them. I know that this family will be going through a lot with the death of their aunt and the holidays. These kids could use all the prays in the world right now. Thank you all for reading this. Fern

This is so sad... I'll have a thought for them. That young man of 21 is very courageous to take up the charge of caring for his younger brothers....:angel2:

He is going to need a lot of help. Maybe you could check with the local paper and see if they'd like to do a human interest story on them. People always like to help out kids that are in tough situations through no fault of their own. Keep us posted!

oh Fern, that is so sad. I am so glad they had you to turn to when they were younger, before they went to live with their Aunt. I will keep them in my prayers as well as the Uncle. This is just such sad news for them near the holidays and after they have been through so much already.
