(A mother scorn.)

Boy! don't make me.....

I'll smack you so hard you can't see

You better check your attitude

Before you loose some altitude

So you think you are grown now

Well, you'll never be that grown child

I am your mother

Not your father

I carried you nine long months

I've feed you for twelve long years

Boy, I've shed so many tears

Had so many fears

Now you want to disrespect me

Get in your room and close the door

Before you hit the floor

Tough love...first bright and useful movement after Dr. Spock wrote his book. He finally admitted before he died, that he may have got it wrong. [smiles] Well done, Grady.
