Chaos--At Home and In Society

The kids, just four and six, are running wild again tonight
and throwing things. Neglectful parents seemingly don’t see.
Adults expecting kids to raise themselves and know what’s right
without their guidance cannot have a home that’s chaos-free. 

Wise parents show their love by teaching children how to act.
Respect and order, hand in hand, keep families intact.
Society at large will feel their positive impact.
