Parents these days.

Parents tell children, "Listen!" But they themselves never do.
Parents scold their kids, telling them to obey the rules. But you see them walking into places that says no eating, chewing a sandwich.
You will never let your kids climb on your sofa. But you let them climb on sofa and seats outside.
You teach your children how to sing "ABC" and count. But you cannot count your seats in the cinema.
When you tell kids to read instructions, you ignore the Bold letters that says "Only bottled water allowed" and call us ridiculous for stopping you from trying to bring ice-cream in.
You want your child to be safe. But to let them run up and down stairs, climb seats, attempt to scale a wall, roll on carpets and jump over chairs.


In the end,
Your child comes to tell me, "Daddy hid the lollipops in his pockets!"
You question why your child is disobeying rules.
And I wonder why.
