Mothers of Felons website

Let me Hafeezah Ahmad, Mother of seven inspired children, and founder of  Mothers of Felons website, introduce you to me and my world of thoughts.  Yes, I am the mother of a felon. Wanting to connect with others who have to walk that walk of despair and often shame.  While many not knowing that you have done your very best in being there for your child/ren or loves ones. Yet, often you will be left out of the process of court processing. You will need to show the beautiful, loving kind side of your child and their importance in the family, life. Ex: video, pictures, etc. for court. The human/ positive side of your love one.

However, there is a greater calling for many that are going through this catastrophic event and the changes will soon follow. Such as self-awareness, new friendships, losses, new loves and may God forbid illness and self-doubt. Just to name a few.

This site is about encouraging through the written words, videos and the discussions that will occur to bring peace of mind, and that, all will be well and work out for the better of all of those involved. Helping one to have a one-stop-way in locating their loved ones. Also in finding out what are the charges and the collateral consequences of their deeds if there is any.

Yes, this site was developed out of my frustration in dealing with my son's criminal behavior and but it is my wanting other Mothers, Lovers, and Caregivers not to feel that this is the end of living and having a good life. By presenting a one-stop way to have the information that is needed to be well informed and armed with the knowledge to meet the challenge ahead.

Thank you for stopping on my page. This is a mother and son adventure. Also, check out my website

Tragedy

Life is filled with tragedy, with long patches of struggle and with, I think, beautiful bursts of joy and accomplishment. Blessed with those moments, you just try to relax as much as possible and focus on the little things, like the joy of changing your baby's diaper. David Dastmalchian

Tragedy in one's life can be a signal for a change in one's surrounding or even life. Elizabeth Ehrhardt Mustaine & Richard Tewksbury (2000) Comparing the Lifestyles of Victims, Offenders, and Victim-Offenders: A Routine Activity Theory Assessment of Similarities and Differences for Criminal Incident Participants, Sociological Focus, 33:3,339-362, DOI: 10.1080/00380237.2000.10571174

But if one was to look up signal in a financial dictionary there is no meaning for that word, Yet if your child or loved one is in the criminal justice system then you are going to pay a price with money or your health. On such thing things a food/snacks, soda doing visit time or for the visit itself to travel to the prison or jail. Not to mention the phone calls and the canteen or money for the books, and clothing and other personal items. Plus the stress and strain one gets under when having to deal, with the criminal justices system.

Did you know that synonym for tragedy is bummer, misfortune, catastrophe, and whammy just to name a few? Thus one must turn it around to make tragedy into success, happiness, fortune, prosperity, and joy. By looking inwards and find the blessing that has been given to them through this challenge in life. One can make some success, happiness fortune, prosperity and joy in their life, by doing and thinking differently.

This all based on how you deal with the feeling of the tragedy of your child/ren or loved one who has entered into the criminal justice system. through their own fault or no fault of their own.

As you see I have recovered from one of my many tragedies in life and had the chance to write again.

Thanks for reading. Let me know how you are feeling. Hope you get a chance to review the link above to the cited material.
