Modern Mom: “That word is inappropriate”
My Mom: “Say that again and I’ll wash your mouth out with soap”
Modern Mom: “Good job trying one bite of the dinner I made. Now you can have Mac & Cheese”
My Mom: “You’ll eat what I make whether you like it or not. There are starving children in China”
Modern Mom: “I packed your bento box with almond butter on whole grain, kale chips and a smoothie”
My Mom: “Grab a brown bag with a bologna sandwich on wonder bread, a couple cookies and a jelly-jar of Hi-C”
Modern Mom: “I can see you’re upset. Take a deep breath and use words”
My Mom: “You better stop crying or I’ll really give you something to cry about”
Modern Mom: “You can’t walk around the block by yourself. I’ll drive you. Text me when you need a ride home”
My Mom: “Have fun. Take your bike and be sure to be home by dark”
