Love Lesson
“What do you do when you can’t control your children?”
“Love is an old-fashioned remedy. Unfortunately, it doesn’t mix well with control.”
“But if they get out of hand?”
“You mean like becoming independent? Like not accepting your religion or politics? Learning morality from others? Questioning you?”
“I won’t stand for rebellion!”
“I won’t stand for violence or abuse!”
“Sometimes they need to be taught a lesson!”
“I’ve been taught that lesson and I know what that lesson is. That lesson is hate. So, don’t disguise it as anything else!”
