Jerry Brotherton Poet Rhyme

Not Your Babysitter Dudes

I saw a report on the news today,
about what Social Media did.
People were yelling and screaming how,
they’re not babysitting our kid.

If you can’t control what your children watch,
while you live with them all day long.
Why are you blaming Social Media ,
when something they might see goes wrong.

If you don’t want them exposed to some things,
that some evil people might say.
Perhaps you should not give them a cell phone,
As a gift for their 5th birthday.

Bill Baker February 1, 2024 at 4:20 PM Preach on, my friend. Tell it like it is! Good poetry with a good point. Bill Jerry Brotherton February 1, 2024 at 5:51 PM Thank you, Bill. I'm sure I have offended my share of people and will probably do so many more times.

Karen Jones February 1, 2024 at 2:09 AM Great points in this one! Social media can only be accessed if parents allow it for the most part! Jerry Brotherton February 1, 2024 at 5:46 PM Thanks, Karen. I tend to stand on my soap box quite often.
