Devil and Angel Kid

With awareness and action, even a devil can transform into an angel

The patriarchal society is worried

whether the child will be a boy or a girl.

Parents, worry whether

the kid will be a devil or an angel.

Devils are those with a fixed mindset,

they say,

Give me more, and I will still blame you.”

Angels are those with a growth mindset,

they say, “Let me make you feel proud.”

Of course, devils will hate angels too.

You got better opportunities,

and making me feel small,

zero accountability.

But parents being parents

feel the pain of estrangement.

Be grateful, learn from mistakes,

improve mindset,

with awareness and action,

even a devil can transform

into an angel.

    What a lesson to learn for a parent or anybody. Love is acceptance of the devil child or the angel child just love them.

    Children only learn what they are taught. Not many bad seeds are born, they're made. Well written, Seema <3
