Often I am amazed,
By those parents who claim...
They go to lengths to raise their children.
But not spend ten minutes with them,
With an applied investing of interest.
But somehow expect from their indifference,
Their children will achieve notoriety and success.
And these are the same children,
That can not sit or listen in a classroom.
And few have social aspects that shows a discipline.
To them disrespect is a reflection that is witnessed.
That tempts most teachers to call in sick.
Or take a permanent leave of absence,
To seek other positions outside of the system.
