Poem to MOM:



My son came home from school one day, With a smirk upon his face.

He decided hewas smart enough, To put me in my place.

'Guess what I learned in Civics Two, that's taught by Mr. Wright?

It's all about the laws today, The 'Children's Bill of Rights.'

It says I need not clean my room, Don't have to cut my hair

No one can tell me what to think, Or speak, or what to wear...

I have freedom from religion, And regardless what you say,

I don't have to bow my head, And I sure don't have to pray.

I can wear earrings if I want, And pierce my tongue & nose.

I can read & watch just what I like, Get tattoos from head to toe.

And if you ever spank me, I'll charge you with a crime.

I'll back up allmy charges, With the marks on my behind.

Don't you ever touch me, My body's only for my use,

Not for your hugs and kisses, that's just more child abuse.

Don't preach about your morals, Like your Mama did to you.

That's nothing more than mind control, And it's illegal too!



Mom, I have these children's rights, So you can't influence me,

Or I'll call Children's Services Division, Better known as C.S.D.'



Mom's Reply and Thoughts:

>

Of course my first instinct was To toss him out the door.

But the chance toteach him a lesson

Made me think a little more.

I mulled it over carefully,

I couldn't let this go.

A smile crept upon my face, he's messing with a pro.



Next day I took him shopping At the local Goodwill Store.

I told him, 'Pick out all you want, there's shirts & pants

galore.



I've called and checked with C.S.D ...

Who said they didn't care If Ibought you K-Mart shoes

Instead of those Nike Airs.

I've canceled that appointment To take your driver's test.

The C..S.D. Is unconcerned So I'll decide what's best.

I said 'No time to stop and eat Or pick up stuff to munch.

And tomorrow you can start to learn To make your own

sack lunch.

Just save the raging appetite, And wait till dinner time.

We're having liver and onions, A favorite dish of mine.'

He asked 'Can I please rent a movie, To watch on my VCR?'

'Sorry, but I sold your TV, For new tires on my car.

I also rented out your room, You'll take the couch instead.

The C .S.D. Requires Just a roof over your head.

Your clothing won't be trendy now, I'll choose what we eat.

that allowance that you used to get Will buy me something neat.

I'm selling off your jet ski, Dirt-bike & roller blades.

Check out the 'Parents Bill of Rights',

It's in effect today!



Hey hot shot, are you crying,

Why are you on your knees?

Are you asking God to help you out,

Instead of C.S.D..?'

I have heard this one before, It is a great one, I will Have to say my daughter did something like that only it was about care when she was in 3rd grade she came home and said you can't spank me any more I will call the sherriff I said you won't need to I will be glad to take you there so you can tell them I never heard that remark again.

She is now 20 and going to college for Nursing she is a great girl I have to say. she is still at home but I don't mind at least I know where she is. I have a 14 year old and he is a great young man just think's he knows it all.

A POEM I WROTE FOR MY DAUGHTER (We were barely speaking at the time)

I love you when you make me happy or sad,

I love you when you make me angry and mad,

I love you always as only a mother can,

One day, sweet Amy you will understand...



She tried the same on me and my response was packing up all my belongings from her room, it took 6 garbage bags, lol, go with the flow and do what you think it best, as it is we as mother's are only wanting the best for them.

I remember the day my son came home and told me he would call child protective services on me if I spanked him ever again. My response, do you want me to look the number up for you? I never heard another word about CPS again.
