I know I forgot
Don't worry Dad
I don't smoke pot

I'm growing up now
Can't you see
It's time for you
To let go of me

So let me go
And try to smile
I'll only be gone
A little while

It's okay, Mom
I promise I'll call you
Don't worry Dad
I'll be home by curfew

And when I'm back
I'm sure you'll see
It's not that hard

Nicely written! Kinda reminds me of a saying I heard a while back... "you give your children roots, but you also give them wings" ^_^

I hope they let go nice an easy. It is always hard for parents to let their children grow up. I'm sure the poem will help them let go, it is writen really nicely. Good Luck
