" Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

You might give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts. "

Kahlil Gibran , The Prophet
