76. Hold tight only to compassion
It has been said by experts,
"You must be consistent,
or your children will be confused."
Nonsense.
Who among us is consistent?
Circumstances are always changing.
Children become confused
when parents become rigid,
holding rules above love.
Be consistently flexible.
Hold tight only to compassion.
