Harsh words that tear him down
In a sea of hate he is bound to drown
The back of a hand across his face
Why is he your one disgrace

That’s right
you know
it’s true

Conception must have been a misdeed
Sorry that you even planted the seed
The birth of a son
unwanted debris

That’s right
you know
it’s true

One so young felt the flame
Somehow his fault
He must be to blame
Callous heart never to be the same

That’s right
you know
it’s true

Draw your last breath, see his hate of course
If you wonder why
just look at the source
Watching you perish he has no remorse

That’s right
you know
it’s true

your style and expression were wonderful throughout.

its hard when a parent does things to us at a young age that scars us into adulthood.
I understand these feelings completly.

we can overcome everything and work through our feelings yes we have a right to be angry but our anger only festers and hurts us in the end. Not preaching at you just sharing things Iv learned along the way

Incredible poem
peace to you
huge hue hugs

Michelle

This poem is put together in a very educated way...what you sow is what your harvest will be..

I got my behind smacked from birth up to age 11.. It hurt my ego, and my feelings more, they were gentle smacks..yet, it turned me into a wonderful woman..

No, I never got beat, I got a good spanking.... on the backside..when I was disrespectful to my parents, brothers, sisters.. in fact, any human that I came into contact with..

I was treated like an adult as an adolescent. I do not mind, now that I am old.. that I get treated as a young chic..

I married, our two sons were smacked gently by the doctor.. on the way in, their birth.. on their backside, breathe baby, breathe..

I chose not to smack my sons.. even before the new method came along, with the newer generations.. to keep your hands to yourself, and speak gently with love.. teach your child, do not bruise him..


Our family all respects one another.. every one has been gently loved into beautiful people....even though some of us are far away, and have our own lives..

My grandkids got the birth smack.. and the oldest ones are ages 11 and they are so wonderful.. they never got smacked at all... just a good talk and they missed out on a few toys and icecream cones..

Both methods worked.. smacks and talks.. I was not physically or mentally bruised, the gentle smacks I received were out of love, not hate or anger.. No brash beatings at all.. No.. No.. No..

My sons once told me and their dad..

I wish you two would have given us a gentle smack to get the punishment over with.. we really hated those long lectures lol....

Well.. as far as your write goes.. It made me think to say.. We have respected our sons.. and they respect me and their dad..

Both of them said to us.. well mom and dad, aren't you two glad you treated us right..

Now for your gift of kindness..

We are not going to put you in a rest home lol.. to get smacked around.. we will take care of you both..

Ahh.. love those kids... you don't have to smack, or speak in a hating and angry tone, to put a message through..

Yes, the newer generations have learned, was taught a beautiful method... must have patients and a lot of hair... as a parent, when your children get in their teens, they age 20 yrs.. Raising up a family is a pleasant thing... if there is pleasure in the family..

Having patience and speaking to your children in a right fashion is healthful to the parents, child.. entire family...

Spread the words of wisdom, to know love is to give love..

That's right, you know.. it's true...
