The Negligent Parent

The negligent parent 
Was never there
How cryptic and puzzling?
His heart was not sincere 
Just face the fact
Your child really needs you 
You need to make your presence felt 
There is a lot for you to do

Oh, yes, there certainly is, and it is so difficult for those who realize.

Much appreciated Caren. Parents need to do a better job at being in their child's life.
