1. Do you agree with Kipling's message in this poem? Why or why not? Identify which of Kipling's statements is the most meaningful to you and explain why. Is Kipling's advice useful for people today? Why or why



Yes I agree with Kipling's message in the poem. He give his son good advice. He wants his son to grow up to be a good man. The most meaningful is line 15 and 16; Or watch the things you gave your life to broken, and stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools. This mean the most to me because your family is the most important thing. Family make you feel important and you always have someone to talk to. Family looks after each other and helps each other with problems.


Yes, Kipling's advice is good. It is important to teach someone about being good. He says to be nice and kind. You should be patient and not lie. He also tell his son to love family and friends. He give good advice so the son can grow and be a good man.



There are alot of opportunities in the world, so take advantage of them and you will be a good man. He says that money is not the most iportant thing. You should be happy.



When you think you can't do something anymore, you should use your strength to keep trying. You should always try to be yourself and not pretend to be somebody else. You can try something new. He also say that you should be honest and patient. If you have some extra time, you should try to learn more stuff.

It is useful for people today because it is good advice. He wants people to be happy and not always think about how much money they can make. The best thing is to be happy. That will not change. He want people to be good and be happy.
