> It's all about the laws today,
> The 'Children's Bill of Rights.'

> It says I need not clean my room,
> don't have to cut my hair
> No one can tell me what to think,
> or speak, or what to wear.
>
> I have freedom from religion,
> and regardless what you say,
> I don't have to bow my head,
> and I sure don't have to pray.
>
> I can wear earrings if I want,
> and pierce my tongue & nose.
> I can read & watch just what I like,
> get tattoos from head to toe.
>
> And if you ever spank me,
> I'll charge you with a crime.
> I'll back up all my charges,

>
> Don't you ever touch me,
> my body's only for my use,
> not for your hugs and kisses,
> that's just more child abuse.
>
> Don't preach about your morals,

> That's nothing more than mind control,
> And it's illegal too!
>
> Mom, I have these children's rights,

> Of course my first instinct was

> But the chance to teach him a lesson
> made me think a little more.
>
> I mulled it over carefully,
> I couldn't let this go.
> A smile crept upon my face,
> he's messing with a pro.
>

> Next day I took him shopping
> at the local Goodwill Store..
> I told him, "Pick out all you want,
> there's shirts & pants galore.
>
> I've called and checked with C.S.D .
> who said they didn't care
> if I bought you K-Mart shoes
> instead of Nike Airs.
>
> I've canceled that appointment
> to take your driver's test.
> The C.S.D. is unconcerned
> so I'll decide what's best."
>

> I said "No time to stop and eat,
> or pick up stuff to munch.
> And tomorrow you can start to learn
> to make your own sack lunch.
>
> Just save the raging appetite,
> and wait till dinner time.
> We're having liver and onions,
