my sister was in and out of jail over the course of 5 years. Mostly, she was charged with possession of drugs. My sister wasn't a bad person, just an addict. However, never once during those years did she ever do anything violent to another human being, even after being slashed in the face with a razor. I think that, even though my mom wouldn't bail her out anymore, my sister knew that my family still loved her and wanted her to get better (she didn't want the help, though). While in jail, my mom visited her, my grandparents still sent her birthday cards with money...My mom was did the best she could without help from my dad (because she wouldn't take it and hated him); and my sisters and I knew that violence was bad, vengeance was wrong and hurting someone might last forever.
