Only a fool would post a non erotic story on a porno site.

Beautiful plot line and story. You should be proud of this.

...boah!<p>I'm mightily impressed. Colorful story. I rightfully can smell the smoke of the McCarters fireplace, hear the murmurs of the river ...</p>Despite my difficulties to understand the dialect, great story. Thank you very much.

to "get a life": Hey, schmuck! The category is named "non-erotic". If you don't want to read it, DON'T!!!! It's patently stupid to read a story in a category which does not interest you, and then castigate the author for posting a story in that category. What?! Your cursor/pointer doesn't work?!!! Most people just skip the sections they don't care to read, and go on to the others. Yes indeed, go get a life.

This is one of the best stories I have read on Literotica.

Thanks for writing such an entertaining story.

One of the best stories I have ever read. Wow...Is there more? I hope so. WoW!

The story has a really interesting beginning, a bit of a nail-biter middle and an ending that is both feel-good for the mother and daughter as well as bittersweet for the son. Very well thought out and well written.

Thanks for your excellent story. The lack of sex did not diminish it one iota.

Be proud Author - this work - talent and subject cause many emotions just as you intended.<P>

It was more than a trade-off for those he loved. Two who could and did win more from life whereas the removal of a dark provoker of despair caused his life to darkly flicker for his sacrifice.<P>

2 winners, 1 loser and 1 in eternal purgatory - perhaps not totally fair but then is life ever totally fair.<P>

Be proud Author - You are appreciated and anticipated.<P>

With Very High Regard

I'd almost like a Ch. 02 - Jim Roy could find somebody to share his life with. Maybe somebody as burdened as he. Great work, Cap811.

Great characters and a very good read. Thank you.

This story felt real and was very well written.

It well deserves being nominated one of the best stories of

the year and I missed first time around.

Everyone in the story was a human being with depth and there was no simple solution.

a well written tale. Jim Roy made a decision and acted on it. This for a 14 year old, was the lesser of two evils, so to speak. He saw what was going to be but refused to let that happen. A life altering day for at least four people.

This is outstanding....thank you so much for sharing, you should be very proud! I loved it!

Sixteen people read this, well 17 counting me 15 are wise people, one damn fool, and me. I guess you kin count me with the 15.

Very well written story about a very difficult time in a young man's life. He seemed to know going it the lifetime of sorrow--not right, joy--not right either. Peolpe who do these kind of things either they go two ways, they either hold so rigid to the law of obedence that they become truly overbearing and proud to a fault at fallowing the exact letter of the law or they start thinking they are above the law. I do not if the hero became over impressed with his adherance to the law, nor does it seem that he became wild child. The years of torment, paid by one for the happiness ot his mother and sister, is akin to laying down one's life for another.

good tale well written

BTW ifn folk aint got the guts to sign their name, their mean and cruel remarks should not be given any value. If they are positive remarks accept the gift of joy

So Says I

there is no reason for him to lead a life of guilt

Definitely one of the best I've found on this site.

For me to give a story a "5" is a rare thing. It must be well written and it must move me in some extraordinary way; by being funny and witty, delightful, or profoundly intelligent and moving. "Are You Decent My Dear" and "The Hunter" are both extremely well written; and one is delightful and the other profound. Both get a five, with no reservations what-so-ever. Congratulations

I notice you have not posted a story in two years or so, which disappoints me. I hope it is because you've moved on to better things and are actually getting paid for your work and talent..

but in this case there was no other option. Excellent story. Extremely well writen. Nearly perfect dialect.

I intend reading all your stories. Thank you for your postings.

Extremely dramatic. The story really moved me. Kudos for superb writing by an obvious master. Thank you! Definite five stars.

I've read this story many times since it was first posted in 2008 and still think it is one of the best ones on this site.

Very well written and very entertaining story. Thanks for sharing.

but uplifting at the same time. Extremely well written. I could almost hear the river and feel the woods around the main character. Sorry the boy had to do what he did and what it did to his life but...I have to applaud his resolve to protect his little sister. Good on you son.

Thanks for a very good story and your hard work.

thought provoking.

and yes, sad.

was there another way?

probably not.

Glad I happened upon it.

Thanks for sharing. *****

A powerful, extremely well written story. A case where the breaking of an important law was NOT a sin.

Exceptionally well written. Thanks for sharing.

Very well written and entertaining.

Thank you for sharing

Great story

What a great story. A 14 year old boy, wise beyond his years, and a conscience, on top of that. This one kind of hit me where I live. Thank go to the author for sharing this one. 5 Stars really doesn’t do this story justice.

You read non-erotic stories, and then leave bitter comments.

You must enjoy unhappiness.

Do you punch yourself in the balls, too?

Well told and well written.

I've read this many times in the past. I always seem to come back to read it one more time.

What an amazing and beautiful story. There is a balance to everything in the universe. There is a consequence for every action...both good and bad. This story is a strong but gentle reminder that we will always be blessed with people who are willing to sacrifice for the rest of us.

Some serve through becoming first-responders, nurses, doctors, etc. Some choose military service.

In the words of Thomas Jefferson,

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."

I am not an advocate of vigilantism. I believe that all human lives have value. However, there are times when the only justice can be found in personal action and it's resultant cost.

In the end, we each must weigh the action against the cost and choose for ourselves.

What an intense story. Reminiscent of Crime and Punishment, where a man who commits a horrible crime is haunted by his conscience. Very different ending, but they both end up in a prison of sorts, just that Jim is of his own making.

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." Jim did something, and he should think of that quote.

Nothing more evil than the abuse of innocent children. Almost wished he had suffered a little.

Well done! To be trapped in such a situation is almost unimaginable for most people. It wasn't the beatings that pushed him over the edge, it was protecting his sister. Not many boys could have made that decision. The fact that it haunted for the rest of his life shows that he knew it was wrong but necessary. This is a five star story. Thanks

Very well done. I kept thinking of that famous ending in Dickens’ “A Tale of Two cities”. “It is a far far better thing I do…” Personal sacrifice to a better good. The cost to his conscience a high price he will live with. Patricide has historically been seen as especially ugly, but child molestation is more heinous on a vast scale. The story evokes painful images of suffering, both physical and emotional, that too often infect family dynamics where alcohol and anger fuse into volatile and explosive tyranny. Very well done indeed! *****

5* and a lot of dust in my eyes.

Proof that ACAB, and law enforcement personnel are NEVER to be trusted. When law becomes tyranny, rebellion becomes duty.

Exceptional. You live with things that had to be done but they never leave you.

FIVE GOLDEN STARS, a shame all podophiles cannot be treated this way. His price is small compared to what would have been.

"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." Edmund Burke.

Do not ever forget that.

Another reading of this story! And another

Great story. My only thought was at the end, when he was talking to the river. He expressed if his happiness was given up for theirs. I thought it was short sighted conclusion. If he had not acted his life would have been hell. To grow up with a father who abused his sister, it would have destroyed him as a man. As it was he had to grow up way too fast, and we all know life is not fair. Actions have consequences yes, but not acting can sometimes be worse.

me dejaste ... mal,

autor, te felicito por esta obra

de verdad te felicito
