Advice To Somebody's Child

When somebody's child fails 
others say ,marks do not determine life
When somebody's child elopes 
people say love is blind
When somebody's child is eliminated in an interview
people say there are thousands to come
When somebody's child tops an exam 
people blame it on the "too easy exam"
When somebody's child marries a good rich man
people say it won't last 
When somebody's child becomes a company head 
people scan the newspapers for a corruption scam
Its easy to advise somebody's child easy to feel for somebody's child
I wish i always remain somebody's child..........
