Question in kids' minds, in my mind..

We are all our parents kids,
some of us, have multiple people,
who are held in our hearts like parents,
and in theirs, you are their child.

but when that happens,
it might seem to be a blessing,
til you find yourself
in a compromising situation.

when you get into problems,
the automatically assume the worst,
on your part.

why? why, you ask..
cause they hold themselves in high esteem,
they have committed a sin,
a sin of vainity.. for they think,
that since they bore you,
you'd never change,
you'd continually be that one same person,
you'd never be wise enough for the world,
never be street smart enough,
their judgement will always be better.

now, i happened to step into this conflict,
with an adult, the manager of an mrt station
(shall not say where)
on one account, it was entirely his mistake,
on the 2nd account,
i was drinking in the mrt station,
true.. but when i unconciously said something,
in my defence, he straight away determined,
that i was challenging authority,
that i had to learn a lesson for that..

so remembering the same man from before,
i thought that he was trying to pick on me.
i did tell my mom, that he MIGHT be picking on me,
i said i didn't know, it wasn't a 100%.
i told her i was only 20% sure,
she assumed i was being picked on immediatly,
she told my god parents, my uncle, aunts,
basically, the world.. that i was wrongfully dealt with,
by an adult.. they all were infurated.

so, they brought me, to question the fella,
he immediatly said i was drinking,
and i still challenged authority,
and just cause he said he wasn't trying to teach me,
my godfather said that he was respecting them,
and had to be respected..
it was only his OWN perception.
and now, in my goddad's perception,
i'm wrong, i was rude,
so i defied authority,
i, a hot-blooded New Age Teen,
would ONLY naturally, do such an act.

so i couldn't care less,
i brought up the first case,
the manager, straight away dismissed it,
saying "we have to put that aside."
so, in my goddad's head,
he was apologising, WHAT IS THIS?
just cause he said "put it aside"
he is no longer wrong?

now, EVERYONE in my family,
says i wronged him, i was in the fault,
i challenged him 1st,
i, framed him saying he was INDEED picking on me.
i have to remphasise, i DIDN'T say he was,
i said he MIGHT be.

yeah, adults, just cause they might have lived longer,
always assume things and are automatically right,
they are never wrong, we are,
i gave up arguing, cause it's pointless.
useless to try and convince people,
who are already full of themselves,
they'd never have enough space for children to speak,
children are always wrong..

or is it because, they think we'd never grow up??
