Watchful Eye

Age 73 now i feel as though my life has been accomplished
I often look at my children and see myself and my qualities
more often than not when i see my granchildren i see a lack of drive and ambition
my first grandson made it to university but dropped out
my first granddaughter is working as a chef but openly loathes it
the plan though was for them to be lawyers,doctors,politicians,pastors
am I hard on them with my expectations?
maybe thats why the visits have dried up
maybe thats why they forget to tell me of the younger sons prison spells
the thing is when you get to 70 people think you lose touch
the kids of today are only spolit because the parents conflict with us believe me
if they listened and we worked together asbo's would be a thing of the past
but what do i know ive only been here for 73 years
the love of a grandad is unconditional and when they bury me
i hope their love is too but i have a strange feeling
that bingo the dog been the beneficial owner of my will might ruffle a few feathers!
