"in this world today there ain't nobody to thank,

just blame it on the kids and toss 'em into the tank.

and if they yell for justice we'll hide them from the light

so that when they learn the truth they won't be scared of the night.

(1, 2, 3, 4)

put the key in the hole when you get home from school.

I'll be home by 8:30, your father will too.

if you cause any trouble then I don't want to see,

'cause you'll go straight to bed and you won't have no TV."

-Bad Religion

A child who is forced to return home to an empty house after school because women fought for suffrage and rights so they could get jobs and leave their children unsupervised and to their own devises while they convinced the world they didn’t belong in the kitchen.

"Hey! Want to go home and play with my dad's guns? Mom started working so my parents are never home after school!" Thus the life of a latch-key kid and the increase in accidents due to lack of supervision.
