My letter to parents and daughters

Confidence - Lacking
Self worth - Unknown
Love - Searching

Another young lady lost
Camouflaged by the world
This is a sickness, A sickness it is
You must open your eyes to see
Because you, parents, possess the remedy

In her, confidence should never be lacking
From birth, the seed of knowledge
knowing there are no limits or stipulations of what she can achieve
Must be sown
The self-esteem issue
you thought was no big deal
usually follows them until they are grown
Give that needed reassurance
Let them know they are great and can do what ever they desire
when they come
And remember...
Also tell your son

To be a parent is a gift
And with this gift... comes great responsibility
Be greater parents than yours could ever be
Encourage your children to do the same

And Young Ladies
Believe your parents when they tell you these things
To sell yourself short
Will surely be a shame

Be Confident
You Are Beautiful, Intelligent young ladies
Your Self worth - Priceless
You are All of that, and All of that You are
When you feel that nobody cares, if, in life, you go far
And if you feel like a needle sinking in the snow
There is something you must know

Your parents are not the only ones capable to nurture
For that Love
LOOK NO FURTHER
