Lousy emotion means poor production
a nervous dispostion lesser induction
common under age twelve...is depression
a young adult's esteem in repression

parental criticism is one half of their mind
child cannot find brighter emotional find
would rather blame themselves for parental discord
adults should realize they should reach accord

we want to build good therapeutic approaches
so the child is not isolated by reproaches
everybody makes mistakes
child esteem is at stake

parent will critise children for poor acadmic performance
anything from why didn't you study stupid...to dunce
you would have won the battle, effected your girth
junior'll associate your rage to a lack of self worth.

children will eventually measure up to someone for sure
but life has some difficult lessons for them to endure.

and a lot of adults who haven't learned
more positive ways, or whose brain chemistry
has been affected in some way

my 15 year ols is on Zoloft right now, they say it's a chemical imbalance...I say it's just hard knocks. She's doing well on it, says she hasn't been having thoughts like usual. *shrugging shoulders*

It's hard to be a kid. Well done write Martin, this touched me good
