Transcribed letter under the cut

"To the Father I never knew Dear Dad, I wish we could go back and start over again! When I was a kid, I used to dream – to pray – that you and mom would stop travelling, forget business and just settle down. We'd be together, the way a family ought to be... Now I have my wish. I'm going to be with you all the time. And it's tearing me apart. [...] Funny, how once you never seemed to care – at least, you never showed me that you did. And now you want to ruin my life. Do you really think we can start over...? [...] I've no idea who you think I am, Dad – but I'm not that boy. I hd to fend for myself for a long time. I changed, Dad. I have a lot of...secrets. [...] You couldn't be more wrong about Bruce Wayne. Despite what he seems, he is the only tryly great man I have ever known. He...helps people. And he never asks for anything in return. I'm not interested in your business, Dad. I've already found my place in the world. I know what I want to be! [...] So how does it sound, Dad? Your own son is Robin. Understand now why I can't come back? Gotham is a cesspool. Tragedy stalks on every street. I can help, dad. I'm needed. [...] Strange, how you can come to love a city. Even one as ugly and rotten as Gotham. All those millions of people, the lines of their lives crossing, touching, tangling...almost as if the city itself is alive. I love you, Dad – but I've found my place. I know who I am. I'm part of my city. [...] Sometimes I wish me could start over...but I know we can't. We have to take things from exactly where we are."
