Teach her about self-love,
self-love isn't selfish,
Teach her about good values,
She doesn't needs to be validated by anyone to have a true sense of her being,
Teach her about self-worth,
She's worth a trillion stars in the sky,
Mentor her about self-pride,
Imbibe the philosophy of give 'n' take in her,
teach her to understand her body,
Help her to learn,
Opening her legs is not a way to show gratitude,
Point out to her the difference between love making and making out,
Provide her a better image of herself,
She's a woman,
She needs love,
Not beg for it,
She needs touch,
Not abuse or force.
Guide her to make her own decisions
Not coaxed or influenced by external pressure.
Do not limit her to the status quo of the society,
If you can't help her achieve her dreams,
Don't be the mountain that stands on her way.
Teach her to respect not fear,
To express not silenced.
Bring her up to be a lady,
A mother, a queen,
TO BE A WOMAN.
