Better the Youth

Never mock, tease, or underestimate The power of today’s youth Don’t criticize, but open their eyes For soon they will execute Revamp ones upbringing skills True parents admit their flaws Correct regrets and mistakes you’ve made You can only hope it rubs off Now is the time to mold them Encourage uniqueness and fun Being selfless and forgiving Hide under more traits than just one Fresh opportunities, chances, and aspirations New goals and self enhancement All the objectives one wants in life Can easily be set for life advancement Show confidence and personality Motivate at all costs With every wasted chance that passes Precious time is lost.

A lot of truth here, Alyssa. Hope those who are raising children are listening. Too often young people go without encouragement or good examples to follow. Very inspirational! Love, Carolyn
