Seven Deadly Sins At School
SEVEN DEADLY SINS AT SCHOOL
Parents give their kids what they feel
Is training worthwhile and valuable,
But it often shows up at school
As behavior which is objectionable
Stupidity in the face of simple facts, forsooth,
Is widespread, and stops kids learning truth.
Stubbornness in attitude is horrible,
Because it means no progress is possible.
Spoiled behavior is something of which to be rid,
For nobody is going to like such a kid.
Boastfulness and comparing with a weaker kid,
Just the way dad and mum always did.
Dirtiness has no reason to exist, try soap and a comb,
Yet it exists, presumably at the child’s home.
Bullying is my favourite for extermination,
And it begins with parents’ self-examination.
.
Bad-manners, for which the child can thank his parents,
And please do so, for they have been aberrants .
