Prudence (Lat. prudentia, contracted from providentia, seeing ahead) is the ability to govern and discipline oneself by the use of reason. It is classically considered to be a virtue, and in particular one of the four Cardinal virtues (which are, with the three theological virtues, part of the seven virtues).
The word comes from Old French prudence (14th century), from Latin prudentia (foresight, sagacity). It is often associated with wisdom, insight, and knowledge. In this case, the virtue is the ability to judge between virtuous and vicious actions, not only in a general sense, but with regard to appropriate actions at a given time and place. Although prudence itself does not perform any actions, and is concerned solely with knowledge, all virtues had to be regulated by it. Distinguishing when acts are courageous, as opposed to reckless or cowardly, for instance, is an act of prudence, and for this reason it is classified as a cardinal (pivotal) virtue.
Although prudence would be applied to any such judgment, the more difficult tasks, which distinguish a person as prudent, are those in which various goods have to be weighed against each other, as when a person is determining what would be best to give charitable donations, or how to punish a child so as to prevent repeating an offense.

Old birds have opinions
They sing and they shout
Beautiful songs from the soul
That no one cares to figure out
I need to know but I'm just a kid
And I need room to grow

We say what we need to say
Even if the long road takes us home
Tomorrow's a new day
We form our opinions, yeah

But who believes a smile from a child
With all of his teeth clinched
My feelings show cause I'm just a man
And I need room to grow

We go where we wanna go
We say what we need to say
Even if the long road takes us home
Tomorrow's a new day
