2.) The stanza break serves the transition for how the morning and night are for her children.
4.) These repeated lines are basically saying how both her son and daughter are unhappy with their appearances no matter how hard they try. That they have a lack of confidence in themeselves when they look in the the mirror. That they wish they looked like other people because they are never satisfied with themselves.
8.) The message of the poem is kind of saying how people always think the grass is greener on the other side or how people always want what they don’t have. Society makes everyone feel like they’ll never be enough so people try and change themselves. When really you should only change yourself for you and no one else. This poem is about younger people but it applies to all ages. Everybody can relate to this poem no matter how old they are.
