Poem
I have two teens, a boy and girl put here to cause me pain. They fight like cats with their only goal to drive me quite insane. I've done my best and raised them well, can't say they've not been taught. But they play the victim when they misbehave whenever they are caught. Those crazy teenagers roll their eyes just to see me getting riled. I didn't learn, I should have stopped at having one more child. His pants are baggy and her skirt too short but when I add in my two cents. When I say my peace, no matter what, they're quick to take offense. They must inform their friends of everything and it all ends up in a tweet. And when taking pictures, they're quick to post and rarely are discreet. A bit short on manners and often rude, the reason God made wine. They're bereft of knowledge and lacking wisdom, this really saves them time. They want fashion clothes and fancy cars, they're pleading for more phones. They take my money every week saying it's a loan. They want more stuff, they need more things, always ready to consume. They will never know what they have until they clean their rooms. I give them chores, a little work, then I have to reprimand. Their faces blank as they do not care or seek to understand. If they must have sex, please play it safe and give your Dad a break. Don't take this wrong, you drive me nuts, don't repeat all my mistakes. God loves those teens as he made so many, he must has a sense of play. To get me back for the things I've done just to watch me turning gray. So to my children who think no rules apply, this is just my point of view. Remember this when you have your kids... I hope they're just like you. The End *For those who may be interested. I will be posting my cartoon 'Bob's your Uncle' on my homepage. A new one will appear every couple of days.
