The stubborn child

The stubborn child

My way or the highway! The young boy shouts.
He always gets his way, and this is no doubt.
Mom offers him veggies, and he says he wants cake!
Dad feeds him mac and cheese, but he wants steak!

His birthday comes around, and he's taken to Chuck E. Cheese's,
He wants a bunch of cotton candy so he begs and he pleases,
It's not long after, until he gets what he wants,
Little do their parents know, their decisions will taunt.

As the boy gets older, he still gets spoiled,
His wife caters to him, and his attitude is soiled.
When he doesn't get what he wants, he throws a fit,
He gets completely out of hand, even he would admit.

One fateful day, he asked his wife for some chicken,
She said "No, its time for you to eat healthier, your body is starting to thicken."
Then out of pure rage he murdered his wife,
All because the stubborn child didn't have full control of his life.....
