Mama, I Don't Wanna' Die!

About the Book

MAMA, I DON’T WANNA’ DIE!” This book depicts the life of an average young teenage Afro-American boy, whose name is Sean. He is unlike some of our youth of today. He thought that his life at home with his little brother, Mom, and stepfather was so miserable and boring. He couldn’t accept having a stepfather over him. So many of our youth are battling with this same issue today. His parents were too strict, so he rebelled against all of their rules. They were trying to rear him to be a decent and respectable young man. He was very bitter because of his parents divorce. He turned against his family and sought fun and excitement with his friends. His Mom tried to warn him that he was keeping bad company, but he refused to heed the warning. Sean thought that his Mom just didn’t like any of his friends. He and his started getting into a lot of trouble at school and in the neighbor hood. Soon they were in big trouble with the law, arrested, and thrown in jail. Sentence was passed and Sean was on his way to the electric chair for murder, double homicide, and there seemed to be no way of escape for him. This is a strong message for our young people today. This is a lesson to be learned. Everyone that say that they are your friends, aren’t really your friends. They are your friends as long as you do what they do, or what they tell you to do, but those are not really true friends. So, be careful, and choose your friends wisely. Know this, your parents have your best interest at heart. They love you, and want the best for you. You will understand it more clearly when you get older and wiser. Please read and enjoy. Thank You.
