A Mother will do anything to protect her child. But when protecting becomes conditioning..
Hush, Daddy's sleeping;
we don't want him to wake.
Let Mommy relax and
take a little break.

It's okay, sweetie,
don't look so sad.
No, Mommy's eye
doesn't hurt bad.

Go on outside
and get some fresh air.
Later on we'll go
for a ride somewhere.

No, honey, you didn't
do anything wrong;
now go on and play,
just don't be too long.

You know Daddy
didn't mean to do it.
He just gets mad;
we all go through it.

When you grow up,
you'll see what I mean.
It's really not
as bad as it seems.

Now I promise
when Daddy wakes up,
he'll feel bad
and we'll make up.

And as far as
anyone can see,
we're just one big
happy family.
