Used to be children were only worried about
Monsters under the bed, and being left
In the dark. Nite-lites and Mom/Dad
Clearing out monsters always helped.
Thunderstorms or bad dreams would
Scare them too. They'd come crawl into
Bed with Mom and Dad and feel safe
Once again. They used too.
Now children worry about things
No child should have to--being
Kidnapped, mass shootings at
Schools, bombs exploding.
Used to be if you misbehaved
You were reprimanded by the teacher.
Now the teachers are arrested for having
Inappropriate relationships with minors.
Used to be if you failed a class, you
Had to repeat it or go to summer school.
They took God and prayer away--
What will be the next new rule?
