The Neglectful Parent

I am scum! I am putrid. I am the worst parent in the world. I brought my child into the world and have been neglectful to him. On January 15th he was born. I never even wished him a H"appy Birthday." I feel like one of those parents who send their kids to school in burlap sacks and kleenex-box shoes. I have dressed little Nixon in the best colors for him. Yet never wished him anything. So, I will give him a new present soon. . . .
