A mother enters her daughter\'s bedroom and sees a letter on the bed.
With the worst premonition, she reads it, with trembling hands: \" It is
with great regret and sorrow that I\'m telling you that I eloped with my new
boyfriend. I found real passion and he is so nice, with all his
piercings and tattoos and his big motorcycle. But it\'s not only that mom,
I\'m
pregnant and Ahmed said that we will be very happy in his trailer in
the woods. He wants to have many more children with me and that\'s one of
my dreams. I\'ve learned that marijuana doesn\'t hurt anyone and we\'ll be
growing it for us and his friends, who are providing us with all the
cocaine and ecstasy we may want. In the meantime, we\'ll pray for the science
to find the AIDS cure, for Ahmed to get better, he deserves it. Don\'t
worry Mom, I\'m 15 years old now and I know how to take care of myself.
Someday I\'ll visit you so you can get to know your grandchildren.
Love, your daughter,
Judith
PS - Mom, it\'s not true. I\'m at the neighbor\'s house. I just wanted to
show you that there are worse things in life than the school\'s report
card that\'s in my desk\'s drawer...............................I love
you!\"
