How far would you let your child go, when it came to their last dying wish? (927 hits)
Since my book "Food for the Soul" is to reform or stimulate marriage within the black community, I came across an interesting article, that speaks multitudes:
A 9-year-old named Jayla Cooper of Southlake, TX, has been battling leukemia for two years, a battle that could end in just a matter of weeks. Her last dying wish was to marry her best friend Jose Griggs, a fellow patient at Children's Medical Center in Dallas.
That would be "no". They are both just children and don't know the first thing about marriage. It's better to allow her to pass into peace than into darkness. If my daughter, as a child, had made this request, I would have declined without a doubt.
