Feb 10- Boy run away after stealing $2 for mum's birthday gift

After reading this article, I was extremely shocked about this boy. I was wondering how can he survive in malaysia, an unfamiliar place to him with $350. It was also quite kind of the man to let the boy to stay at his place. Most people will think that it is an insensible act of him but think again, he was just scared that his parents will send him to boy's home for stealing $2. Once again, why did he steal that pathetic $2? His main motive is to buy a present for his mum because his mum's birthday was round the corner. All happen because of this virtue call filial. What really touched my heart was his letter that was left behind before he went off. He mentioned that he do not want his rest of his brothers to follow his footstep, this proved that he knew that he was wrong and felt ashamed about it. His mother also did not give up searching for her son. So in the end, the most heartwarming scence was the reunion of the mother and son as both embraced together. I believed that his mother would not be angry with her son and i think that everybody should forgive that little boy who is only 13 years old. I believe that everybody should deserve a second chance.

It is indeed quite touching for something like this to happen in modern day. Derrick do check your grammar. I believe you are capable of writing accurately. There were quite a number of unnecessary mistakes.
