The American Revolution Allegory…Sequel!
Yes, I’m sure you remember the 13 children from the original story but we’re now in the future and these kids are all grown up! They knew it would be extremely hectic if they had more than one child with their spouse so they all had just one. 13 only child’s with 12 other cousins. Pretty smart if you think about it. Anyway, these cousins all grew up with each other. No doubt about it they knew everything about the other. Before the parents knew it those kids were growing up, and fast! They all wanted more freedom! They wanted cell phones, later curfews, and more allowance money. They grew attitudes too. The parents knew they had no choice but to do to their …show more content…
children as their parents had done to them. They remember the hatred they had towards their parents but looking at how they all turned out, they thought of it at “tough love”.
They eased up on the decisions they made though. The children definitely did not see it coming. Instead of getting cell phones, later curfews, and more allowance money they got no cell phone, an earlier curfew, and no more allowance money. They were all together shipped to an island with a private school where they were the only students. There was another school on the other side of the island where they were absolutely not allowed to go anywhere near. They thought they would survive and started scheming by finding some goods on the island and found a way to sell it to the kids on the other school. They were caught soon enough and now the parents decided to not pay for the children’s school books and make them work for it. The children loathed their parents and decided to rebel some more. This time, the parents were much stricter! Now all children had amped up security and they were monitored 24/7 and they had security in their bedroom’s and they had to tend to them. Feed them, house them, tend to them, and so on. One of the security guards started to grow an ego and was expecting more from the children. He started lounging around the rooms and ignoring all the other guards and when one of the children …show more content…
confronted him and told him that his attitude was unacceptable he was wacked with a nearby lamp.
The other’s immediately tended to him while one of the other kids ran up to the guard from behind and hit his head with a baseball bat and hit it, as if it were a baseball, at the wall. Of course, one of the guards didn’t appreciate that so he slapped him and from there things grew out of control! Until one of maids was walking by and stopped the fight, things were getting ugly and fast. The guards were immediately removed from the island but the children only had more hatred for their parents so they decided to grab all of their school books that their parents made them buy on their own and threw it into the ocean. Their parents were furious! They decided that they would no longer have any contact with the outside world and they would have to work double time to pay off all the books they threw into the water. They realized that things are gonna get more and more violent and they would have to deal with this problem in a civil manner. So they all gathered together to think of a way to get back home but one of the children wouldn’t deal with it at all in any civil manner. He convinced the others to come with him to
fight for their freedom. Guards were sent and the battle began and went on and on for days. Surprisingly all the children survived and so did the guards. Basically, the whole battle was for nothing. One of the more intelligent children decided to write a blog about how horrible their parents were to them and that gave another one of the kids the idea to write some kind of treaty and with days and days of planning it turned into a 15 page long Declaration. The parents were pleased with the way the children handled the situation and granted them their freedom and let them return home. Things were fine again and until these kids have kids, see you next time[:
