FAMILY DEBTS

All children do their parents owe,
It's not the other way around;
With pain and cost the children grow,
And help from children rarely found.

The parents struggle hard and long,
To rear their e'er ungrateful brood;
Yet all we hear is when their wrong,
Some would the rest of us delude.

Most parents serve their children's needs,
They work and worry all the time;
They try implanting moral seeds,
And yet some still imply a crime.

For college parents must provide,
Expensive cars at age sixteen;
All teens to rules do not abide,
And work would any child demean.

Me thinks priorities are skewed,
It is the children owe the debt;
The children should show gratitude,
Too oft they do this debt forget.
