Through and Through

Through and Through

When your impish child did become difficult
Best option has always been the belt
Which was wrapped across the rear end
To straighten out child is what you intend.

Why should you let all of your plans scatter
Try to get down to the seat of the matter
What they want to do is have rules bent
Object of their behavior is being obstinent.

Are there any riles I may have left out
Child's hard of hearing so have to shout
And end up having to become ballistic
Due to child being my primary statistic.

Also is now object of all my attention
Without a doubt and lack of apprehension
My grand conclusion I deliberately came to
Kid is biggest pain through and through.
