Back in the days <br />When I was young <br />We didn't get away <br />With acting dumb <br /> <br />We got paddled, and belts <br />Even a slap on the head <br />They tried to knock since in us <br />Before our brains where dead <br /> <br />Today the kidfs act <br />Frootier than a loon <br />Some act crazier than <br />A rabid raccoon <br /> <br />Some blame it on drugs <br />Or even this or that <br />It's all how they're raised <br />Mostly like a spoiled brat <br /> <br />The doctors don't help <br />Claiming it's some weird desease <br />Just to line their pockets <br />From the pills they push to please <br /> <br />So correct your kids now <br />Before it gets too late <br />For your very control <br />Just may change their fate <br /> <br />written 1/17/2013 by Norman Hale Jr.<br /><br />norman hale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/back-in-the-day-8/
