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.
