[QUOTE="Richards, post: 5013838, member: 508"] Perhaps I'm reading more into this than I should, and perhaps we have different definitions of the word "hero," but while the deeds you have done on your mother's behalf over the years are certainly very commendable, you seem to be claiming "hero" status solely by resisting the impulse to kill your mother (or otherwise allow her to die) in order to gain her $700,000 life insurance policy. Edena, you were a hero simply by doing all you could for her over the years. The thought of "I could have been $700,000 richer if I'd let her die" - to me, at least - are not the thoughts of a hero, and you certainly don't get any "hero bonus points" by NOT killing your mother for financial gain. Hell, if that were true, then every one of us who has resisted the impulse to kill our parents to cash in on their insurance policies are by definition heroes. I prefer to hold the term "hero" to a higher standard. Johnathan [/QUOTE]
