Mom- Apologize

Mom, you need to get it together, dear.
Your family problems are severe.
Favoritism in your home is seen clearly.
You’ve pushed him into trouble more than mildly.
Upon confrontations, you stand guilty.
This is oh so too familiar to me.

Mom, the born again Christian,
Should we mention?
Often she resorts to cursing, 
When an apology is suggested.
Knows so much regarding scriptures,
But actions toward her child,
Who has a call on his life,
The teaching’s definitely not practiced.
She’s wondering why things,
 Are the way they are?
Well, because no sincere apology thus far.

Your children only often end up doing,
What they see you do growing up.
Yes, the Bible says when one is saved,
Old things are passed away,
And things are become new.
The Bible says also to confess our sins
 To each other,
And train up a child in the way,
He should go.

Not saying that you did not do the latter,
But the middle is left undone.
You need to apologize to your,
Middle seed before more,
Damage to your family tree comes.

Mom, you hurt him badly,
Confess your guilt and move on.
Who’s depending on it?
Your well-being and son.
Mom, stop living a lie,
Woman up and apologize.
