Dear Sam:
Thank you for your comment about me.
Your father has been on a crime spree against you for seven years and going, fearlessly and shamelessly. Society stands by him because of his position: father. No legal or practical consequences for him. In a society like this Power is everything and he has the power.
There is nothing admirable about a family and a society where Power is value # 1, and Justice is a non-issue.
You were and are a victim of a crime: theft, grand theft. Your work of four years has been, in effect, slave labor.
Your mother and siblings will choose your father over you during the confrontation you are thinking about. Because Power is what it is all about.
Now that you are where you are, placed in a spot of weakness, helplessness, powerlessness-
Do you have a choice: to stay there or to leave?
Your mother and siblings will choose your father in a confrontation (and at best, in private, will express some empathy to you, out of your father’s vision). Hopefully, they will benefit from your slave labor as your father may use your money for their well being; hopefully he will leave it as inheritance when he dies.
When your father stole from you for four years and then doesn’t let you have enough of YOUR hard earned money so you can have a decent life in Sudan, he expressed what value you have in his mind and heart. Do you accept that value as indeed, your value?
There is nothing noble or admirable in respecting a family and a society governed by power, not by justice.
Looking forward to read from you next.
