ALL APOLOGIES "
(Well, except for you..)
No one is allowed to say cruel words.
No one is allowed to be disrespectful .
No one is allowed to demand the truth.
No one is allowed to raise their voice.
Well, except for you...
Temper tantrums are unacceptable.
Violence is unacceptable
Destruction of property is unacceptable.
Absurd accusations completely unacceptable.
Well except for you...
Everyone is accountable for their actions.
Everyone is subject to punishment.
Everyone will pay for their betrayal.
Everyone will be open and honest.
Well ,except for you...
Promises had better be kept.
Important events should not be forgotten.
Don't be greedy and selfish .
Appreciation is expected for help given.
Well,except for you...
Do not be a hypocrite
Do not try to excuse any bad behavior.
Blaming others for your mistakes is wrong.
Apologize when confronted about dishonesty.
Well, except for you...
Trust,respect,appreciation,
loyalty ,sympathy and complements are expected from everyone.
WELL OF COURSE, EXCEPT FROM YOU...
