From the mouths of babes it was said long ago that truth would come from. What is it our kids want?
Is it not peace? Is it not spending more time with their parents? I think it is. Family Values was a good "sound bite" it might have worked had not both parents ended up working.
Bobby Darin who wrote this song died at 37. He would be proud of the tears this version is going to bring to your eyes. These kids sing the hell out of it. When will we listen to the Children?

This young Canadian Troubadour to follow was trying to wake up the United Nations conscience back in 1993 but not a thing has changed. She was only a kid trying to wake adults up to what they teach their kids about sharing
[[children2]]How long before we start listening to the wisdom of these kids?
Sadly these young Troubadours have been called "Communist Plants" by some on a conservative site I posted these on. Lots of the right here in this Union are going to be infamous before long for mistaking compassion for Communism. I know when I read how the firsts Saints had all things in common I think of what John Lennon sang about in Imagine about a Brotherhood of Mankind sharing all the earth.
Mainly all I'm trying to say is what will it take for US to be sure of leaving a better World for the Children to follow. We don't own this Planet; we lease it from Generations to come.
