Anew
.
An old soul born anew
Created at the beginning of time
And given a new life
Another chance to dance
To the Master’s tune
Or to slouch off independence street
Not yet full-grown, but foot loose
Fancy free, smart alec know-it-all
Right ready to take a fall
Who knows, who cares
Enough to help to break the spell
To fill the hole which parents held
Before the busy-ness of life
Removed their power from the child

Kids grow up too fast. Everything we do is molding them to becoming who they will be. If we neglect them, they will surely grow to resent that. And at some point it becomes too late, cause they will not respect what you are saying if your actions never matched up.

Children, especially teenagers, do need a mentor whom they can respect. Teachers often filled this role. I think some of today’s teachers have lost the respect of pupils though because they have failed to maintain a fine line between friendship and respect.
