Mother Knows Best
"I'm only doing this for your own good" ******* "If his mother lets him jump off the Empire State Building, do you want me to let you do it, too?" ******* "You have to get up in the middle of the night to fool your mother." ******* "Be careful what you wish for, you might get it." ******* "If I had talked to your grandmother the way you talk to me . . ." ******* "As long as you live under my roof, you'll do as I say." ******* "I'm not asking you----I'm telling you." ******* "So it's raining? You're not sugar---you won't melt." ******* "Fools' names, like fools' faces, always appear in public places." ****** "Don't cross your eyes or they'll freeze that way." ******* AND THE ALL TIME FAVORITE!!!

The list could go on and on Another "very" important one sent to me by a reader! Thanks
BISS!!! BECAUSE I SAID SO!!!!!! They can't help it. Mothers HAVE to say these things . . . it goes with the territory. It's as though when a woman gives birth, she gets lots of flowers, tons of attention, and the solemn obligation to utter momilies. How else to explain how universal these sentiments are? From generation to generation, mothers say the same thing to their children. Don't be mad. Be amused! They do it because they love you. But mostly because THEY JUST CAN'T HELP IT!!! *Michelle Slung* ******************************************************** To all the mothers out there, I am sure you have heard some of these sayings from your grandmothers, and your mothers, and you are maybe saying the same things to your children I am sure also that a lot of the fathers out there have, or are saying some of these things to their children . . . Maybe someone needs to write a "Dadilies" book? * Ziplo * ***************************
