What every happened to giving a person a 2nd chance. These people have served their time -- it is like the scarlet letter all over again.

Help, my husband has done 10 years and he needs a job to help support his family, however he has never had a job but exstreamly intellengent. No company places you in a postion without some type of training. He ran a million dollar company by himself and now can't find a job to save him from doing wrong again. Where can he start?

Finally Free — Sun, 17 May 2009 02:49:15 GMT

After spending 22 years in prison, I thought I would be giving more than just a chance to be free again, I thought that the fact the parole board released me meant that I would get a second chance at life. It seems that the only people who believed that I deserved a second chance is the 3 people who agreed to release me, they saw what every one else refuse to see, that I have changed and grown. After 22 years in prison I am no longer the same person. I want to live in this world and I want to contribute in a positive way. Just want a fighting (no pun intended) chance.

Our country is in big trouble if we cannot re-integrate the released prisoners back into society as useful, proud and productive citizens. They need to be given at least a fighting chance to earn a living.

I have a family member that is trying so hard.

Got in trouble as teen! Got his GED. Served his time! Now in Trade School! B+'s. no job any where.

Some has to realize People make very stupid mistakes. Can't change the past but with help could make a big difference in the future.

Very good someone needs to know they need help and understanding.
