When did parents stop warning?
“Watch out, be careful with that!”
“You’ll poke you’re eye out with that thing!”
/
When did parents stop warning?
“Don’t go out in the cold dressed like that!”
“You’ll catch pneumonia! Catch your death of cold!”
/
When did parents stop warning?
“Never trust a man who talks out of
The side of his mouth, he’s a Scheister!”
/
When did parents stop warning?
“Don’t let that good food go to waste!”
“Always finish your entire plate!”
/
When did parents stop warning?
“Don’t play with the outlets in the wall!”
“You’ll electrocute yourself to death!”
/
When did parents stop warning?
“Don’t you go near the side of that pool!”
“You’ll fall right in and drown to death!”
/
When my friends started being parents!
/
When my friends had fences built around the pool!
When my friends had protective plugs in outlets!
When my friends realized obesity is a disease!
/
When my friends said, “Don’t trust of any man’s talk!”
When my friends always dressed children before going out!
When my friends put all sharp objects in cabinets out of reach!
/
Don’t we stop giving all warnings
When we realize no warnings work?
Don’t we stop giving all warnings
When we realize the danger itself must end?
/
Don’t we stop giving all warnings when we end
The danger with creative intelligent mends?
/
Now, why don’t my friends ever shout as parents
To all politicians, “Quit playing with all those
nuclear missiles! You’ll poke all our eyes out
With those things!”
/
BECAUSE MY FRIENDS BECAME PARENTS!
THAT’S WHY THEY DON’T!!!
