How do you feel?
Staring into the eyes,
do you feel,
Love? happiness? joy?
perhaps,
you don't see,
picture thier future,
Realize,
your Every move is being monitored now,
your every word considered,
you are now a 24/7 role model,
yet imperfect,
your mistakes leave scars, create tears,
and in time,
make way for Hatred,
your every mistake is taught to a child,
and your every fault set up to be repeated,
your every punishment and reaction,
becomes a lesson of whats right,
later to be repeated...
As a new borns stares into your eyes,
how do you feel
Author notes
no one really thinks as they look at a child but it true they learn. If you hit them the study shows they will probally hit there children if you do anything wrong on purpose a child sees it as right. This is empathy i don't have children its based on other things more form the side of a child.
