teaching...


Teach not your kid what is right and what is wrong

Teach him if you can, to reason, and let him for himself see

Teach him how to walk but not which path to take

If you have taught him well, path he would sure for himself make

Give him the rationale and not the judgement

For, though he is born, he is not bound to thee

Neither to society or your faiths decree

Biases and prejudices wedged into your mind

So deep and thorough that you can never unbind

You are slave, not let him be

So if you can, set him free...

More than anything from the baggage you carry...
