What causes quarrels , what causes fights
What makes children decide which is wrong or which is right
The truth is each of them were born innocents,
Is this the root of human predicament?
Love begins at home and so as discipline
Guidance from family is an imperative thing
Introduce God as early , so they may follow the creed
Nurture them, emphasize the difference of wants from needs
Teach them how to be compassionate while they’re young
Raise a pet at home or plant a tree to grow
Teach them to be patient , give them time to understand
Every little thing that matters that they need to know
Support their talents , develop their passions
This is the only way to divert their attentions
From peer pressure and unknown insecurities
The more they know, it opens the opportunities
Teach them how to fish, so they will learn to strive
So later in life they they will learn how to survive
Educate them so they will know things not only by the books
Emphasize that everyone deserves respect not only by how they look
It will start in a loving home with loving family that cares
Their paths will be lightened from words of God that we share
Let the children dream, and believe what they can do
What matters is the moral support that comes from me & you
