Chapter 160: Wisdom and Advice

Grandpa Herman continued on.

Sometimes decent people do wrong things in life. Tons of reasons or issues can factor in on that person's behavior. It's not right, but some folks do stuff wrong when they are hurting inside," he said with a serious expression. "Your son didn't get much attention from you. He needs your attention now, Ellis.”

"So, you honestly think that giving him attention will help, Grandfather?" I asked.

He nodded. "I think so."

"So, what do you suggest?"

He continued his speech. "Make him too busy to do illegal things. Make an effort to get to know him better. Find out more about his past. Maybe his past was dark and he doesn't know how to respect women. Try to be understanding and supportive of Carl. Try to give him advice. Maybe even good business advice. Heck, maybe even help him start a business here. That might help a lot too. What do you think of that idea?"
