  2. I find it idiotic beyond belief that these KIDS would be on a national televised “Dating Show”, at the tender age of 14. And then we wonder what has happened to our youth 37 yrs. later.

    Making A Man

    Hurry the baby as fast as you can,
    Hurry him, worry him, make him a man.
    Off with his baby clothes, get him in pants,
    Feed him on brain foods and make him advance.
    Hustle him, soon as he’s able to walk,
    Into a grammar school; cram him with talk.
    Fill his poor head full of figures and facts,
    Keep on a-jamming them in till it cracks.
    Once boys grew up at a rational rate,
    Now we develop a man while you wait,
    Rush him through college, compel him to grab
    Of every known subject a dip and a dab.
    Get him in business and after the cash,
    All by the time he can grow a mustache.
    Let him forget he was ever a boy,
    Make gold his god and its jingle his joy.
    Keep him a-hustling and clear out of breath,
    Until he wins–nervous prostration and death.

    —Nixon Waterman

    “… Now I’ve retired, my son’s moved away
    I called him up just the other day
    I said, I’d like to see you if you don’t mind
    He said, I’d love to, Dad, if I could find the time
    See, my new job’s a hassle, the kids had the flu
    But it’s sure nice talking to you, Dad
    Sure nice talking to you ….”
    - Harry Chapin
