Children

3. O màglia
la menèsctra
o salta
‘scta fenèsctra
Eat your soup or jump out of the window


A sort of rude command to all children to eat the meal served by their mothers or got to bed hungry.
 

4. Al pà al gi la fè
a mantégnar déisc màrc';
ma déisc màrc' i gi la fèn mìga
a mantégnar al pà.
A father may support up to ten children, but ten children may not be able to support their father.
This seems more an truism the past than a proverb. While parents cared for their children for all their life, when they are old, very often the children don't care for their parents.
