Every one should have some type of communication with their father, especially as a son to be taught some of the core values of being a man. In the latest book we started reading "The Road" the world is in an Apocalyptic state which forces some things to be drastically changed. It's about a father and son going through the most extremest events to survive.
Within this world people has gone so far as to turn to cannibalism to survive. The father tries his best to protect his song for if they were caught horrible things will be done to his son. The father carries around a pistol with only two bullets in it so if they are caught he can shoot his son, then shoot himself, because he doesn't want his son to go through the horrors of being caught by the cannibals.
The father tries to stay to this principle that dying is better than his son being tortured like he would. A cannibal saw him and his son and the father had to waste one of the bullets on him instead of his first plan. Now he only has one bullet left in the gun.
What if your little brother was the last family member you had left and you had one bullet in your gun, and you knew there were murderers in your house who would rape, torture, and eventually kill him? So in the end it was either you take your own life and he suffers or you take his life and you suffer? Would you be able to make a decision like this? Would you be able to kill your own BLOOD? Well, How Do You Like Those Apples?
