My parents did forsake my late sister and me. I hope they die miserable and with many regrets! I haven't spoken to them in over 12-years. I will never forget what they did to our family and I will never forgive them.

To compare a mission to military service is ridiculous. I did not serve a mission. I am, however, serving overseas right now. I am a husband and father. It is one thing not to see "mommy", "daddy", "little brother", or "little sister" for 2-years. Instead we are putting our county before our own children. Missionaries that cry about not being able to

Thank you to those of you who have posted your support. It is comforting to hear your kind words of support for me and my family. To the last poster your comment regarding my choice to be atheist is unwelcomed and idiotic. I wouldn't presume to tell you what to believe. What qualifies you to? I spent 15-years in the military and have deployed to both Afghanistan and Iraq. I've seen first ha

Both of my parents converted to Mormonism in the 1960s. My mother was Catholic and my father Protestant. Both came from large families that my sisters and I have never met.

I met her only twice as a child and the last time I saw her was in the mid 198
