Radiance 0 #1 May 13, 2007 In honour of Mother's Day, I thought it might be nice to share what sage/funny/silly advice your mother gave you growing up. My mom once told me to wear my ugly panties on a date if I wanted to make sure I wasn't tempted to sleep with a guy. My mom's one of those blunt types!! What kind of advice stuck with you?We should not let our fears hold us back from pursuing our hopes. -- John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

popsjumper 2 #11 May 13, 2007 From both sides of the house: Mom: Don't hurt your brother. Dad: Teach your brother how to take care of himself. Mom: Get to the table before your Father or you won't eat. Dad: When she calls for dinner, go wash your hands before you come to the table. Mom: Stay away from loose women. Dad: Stay away from loose women. (the only thing I can remember that they ever agreed on.) Mom: You can't do that. You're don't know how. Dad: Hell, give it try. It'll make a man of you. Mom: What did you do now? Don't do that. Dad: Put some alcohol on it. It'll alright.My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

kbordson 8 #15 May 13, 2007 My mom didn't give a lot of "advice" nor did she try to control or influence who I would become. But everything I am is because of her guidance. She was (and is) always kind, sweet, listening and understanding. She never says anything mean against another but doesn't really criticize me when I do (except to say "Now, Kono.... be nice"). She always just said "I just want my girls happy." She did however threaten to sell me to the gypsies a few times when I was being especially troublesome.... not that I ever was .

Taffy 0 #18 May 13, 2007 "Don't get married don't have children" - told me that ever since was in the womb, and yes she's still married and still loves her kids big time - i don't understand it either but always thought it was good advice and lived by it. As she always tells me i love my life too much the way it is and too selfish to have kids and i agree! Sky Pikey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But it's just as easy to love a rich man." Somehow it never sunk in....but then I'm not married (anymore) either.-- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.
