I am sorry that we have put so much effort into giving you everything we didn’t have, that we’ve neglected to give that which we did have.
We didn’t teach you:
- Angel
We didn’t teach you:
- to take your hat off when indoors
- to use the words sir and ma’am
- that underwear is called “under” for a reason
- to respect adults, whether you agree with them or not
- to hold the door for others
- to say please and thank you
- that yelling at your parents is unacceptable
- that any male can be a man, but it takes a real man to be a gentleman
- that any female can be a woman, but it takes a classy woman to be a lady
- that in the real world not everybody gets a trophy
- that just because you think you deserve it does not mean that you do
- that the world owes you nothing, so work hard for what you want
- Angel
