Oh, what a lovely question! Mephibosheth was just a young boy of five years old when King David sent for him. It's heartwarming to think about the kindness and care David showed towards Mephibosheth, isn't it? Just like how we can show kindness and care to those around us every day.
He sent Bathsheba's husband to the front line where David knew he would be killed so that he could have Bathsheba for himself.

Mephibosheth
No.He tried to do whats right all of his life! King David is the one who did wrong and committed adultery. Jonathan's Son Mephibosheth did what was right all of his days...That is what it says in the BIBLE.
Rizpah was Mephibosheth's mother.
The bible never gives us her name.
Mephibosheth was disabled in both feet, making him unable to walk normally.
2 Samuel 9:13 says Mephibosheth lived in Jerusalem.
Mephibosheth. 2 Samuel 4:4. When the news about the death of Saul and Jonathan (father and son) came to Jerusalem, Mephibosheth's nurse dropped the little five year old, who was injured in both feet, and became lame. 2 Samuel 21:7: The King spared the son of Jonathan because of the oath (pledge) Jonathan and King David made together, so support one another. Jonathan acted in defiance of his father, the then King (Saul) in support of David, who was not yet crowned king. Jonathan and David remained faithful to each other before the Lord. Jonathan realized that David was the anointed King and that his father, Saul (whom he had to support and died in battle), was now rejected by the Lord. Mephibosheth was supported by King David and ate at the King's table (2 Samuel 9:13 until he died.) He also had a son, so the family line progressed through this cripple. His son's name was Mica (2 Samuel 9:12) and they had plenty, including the amazing Ziba and his family as servants! Not bad going for a crippled man. This also shows the depth of compassion King David had for his dear friend, well after he was dead. We can learn from David.
Mephibosheth was the son of Jonathan, who was the son of King Saul, and his mother's name was not specifically mentioned in the Bible.
2Sam:9:13: So Mephibosheth dwelt in Jerusalem: for he did eat continually at the king's table; and was lame on both his feet.
Mephibosheth was also known as Meribaal because Meribaal means "the one who contends with Baal," while Mephibosheth means "exterminating the idol." The name change was likely done to distance him from any association with the pagan god Baal.
