Raising Kids

Raising kidsToday or in the past Has always been a challenge Even though they grow up so fast Good intentions Will not do When all they want Is to skip some school Giving in Does not work While too much discipline Will drive them berserk So where’s the balance Or middle ground Where workable strategies Can be found So many books And authorities too Contradict each other Taking us for a fool But don’t give up There still is time It’s never too late To change our fate There are people out there That we can trust That have valid solutions But discernment is a must Part of the answer lies within We know what we must do But far too often We just give in So learning to parent Is part science, part art Applying techniques From the heart No matter how vigorous Our kids resist Down deep they love us So we must persist Schizophrenia in children Has a cause While often ignored And the symptoms explored Depression children Who are they More confused Than I can say So many memories And feelings too Need to be released For healing to come through Prescribing drugs Is the norm Going into battle Taking the enemy by storm So many issues And conditions too Seem quite unsolvable Not knowing what to do But modern science And Spirit too Have some answers That will totally amaze you From parenting skills That we can learn To advances in therapy That help us discern The answers Are out there For us to find It takes patience and discipline For our lives to unwind Doing our research Day to day Is the solution To our dismay Helpful insights Will then abound As we attract the resources That are really sound Trust yourself And your children too The love that you possess Will harmonize you So raising kids Can be fun When we understand that our learning Has just begun JWS 6/3/11
