Cats Cradle is a game played by children with a string. This is not the case for the song‚ Cats in the Cradle by Harry Chapin. Chapin isn’t joking around with this song‚ he is touching on a topic different than the usual pop love song bullshit.

Teenagers roll their eyes when they are told “you are just like your parents.”

Trust is a very valuable thing is one’s life. Without trust‚ it is next to impossible to go through life.
