Teenager Woes

“I know,” “I will”, I always hear,
Still you ignore those chores, my dear.
Advice from me can’t touch your ear,
Unwise choices are a real fear.

I know that life should have its fun,
But that’s not all it is, my son.
Don’t scorn my help, or you’ll get none.
Earn respect, Autonomous One.

The April PAD challenge (Day 24) prompted for an “auto” poem. This was my second crack at it, but this time, I picked on “autonomous” teenagers.
