So often we bemoan the up-and-coming generation. Here's my take on things...
I learned to add, subtract, multiply and divide,
And always followed the teacher's directions.
My kids solve complex problems collaboratively,
And make unshakeable lifetime connections.
So, I did as I was told
til I was 40 years old,
'Stayed in my place,'
and wasted the 'best years of my life;'
While my kids try new things;
They take chances and risks.
With a network of friends to support them,
and the confidence to recover from setbacks
mighty quick!
