The Struggle
Your parenting is wrong
You don't know how to discipline
A year from now your son will raise his hand at you
You need to be a better mother
You're a stupid mom is his new phrase
You're not like dad who takes us everywhere
Where's that I ask? To the candy store.....
That's all, he buys us candy and gives us chocolate
You're not like dad he says
No, I'm not.
I take care of you
I take you places
I'm there for you
But because they don't approve of how I do things, they see me as a monster
I take care to make sure they're all okay
I take them places so they have a childhood
I'm there for them to know they have someone to trust
But all that doesn't matter
Cuz all they see is that
I didn't get enough candy
I didn't get enough time at the park
I didn't get enough time with my friends
I didn't get enough screen time
I missed out on birthday party
I had to do chores at home
I have to follow stupid rules, that my mom makes
You don't have four siblings things are so much easier and better for you
I didn't ask for five children
Things might have been much easier with less
But I never say I wish I had less
Or I never say I wish I didn't have them
They are my gift from God
I wouldn't never change a thing about that
Or give them up for the world
I wish they would just understand
That I am ONE and
They are FIVE
I have two hands and they have ten
I have two feet and the have ten
I can only hear one at a time
Yet they all want to talk at the same time
I can only do so much for them
But if we worked together
So much more could be done
But all they see is the unfairness
Because they are kids and kids should only be allowed to play and play and play
Responsibility comes after
Discipline comes after
NOOOOOOOOO
It all starts from from when they're young
The hardship and difficulty in this
IS
I am ONE
And
They are FIVE
No one will ever really understand what a person goes through and what their struggles are. No one 😔
