How to be a Mean Mother

A Mean Mother never allows candy or sweets
to take the place of well-balanced meal.

A Mean Mother insists on knowing where her
children are at all times, who their friends
are, and what they do. A Mean Mother breaks
the Child Labor Law by making her children
work ~ washing dishes, making beds,
learning to cook, and doing other cruel and
unpleasant chores.

A Mean Mother makes life miserable for her
offspring by insisting that they always
Tell the truth.

A Mean Mother produces teenagers who are
wiser and more sensible. A Mean Mother
can smile with secret delight and pride
when she hears her own grandchildren
call their parents, “mean.”

What we need now are more
Mean Mothers…and Fathers!
