Did your mother do a good job?

Question

Do you feel that you honestly turned out to be a pretty good person, or do you know within your heart of hearts that some things you do your mom DEFINITELY wouldn't approve of?

It's so sweet to see all the really nice responses about your moms. Even the ones whose moms weren't around it sounds like you overcame those obstacles and persevered. Good job!! =)

*** Why is there always one idiot in the bunch? Ms. 90210, you know nothing about my mother. She just passed away this past year, and from your response I can tell she was a waaay better mother than yours. At least she taught me manners!!!! ****

Answer 1

My dear sweet Momma turns 88 in August and is the greatest Mom of all time to me. And she still loves her babies even though we are hardly babies anymore. Yes I believe that I turned out to be a pretty good person and a son she can be proud of as I'm honest, trustworthy, friendly, loyal, caring, and compassionate.

Answer 2

My Mom did a great job with us. She was a single Mother, back at a time most women stayed at home and when some kids couldn't play with us because, "she" must have been bad for her husband to leave. WRONG! My Mom refused to go on Well-fare. We were poor but proud. We had hand-me down clothes, a box of Hamburger Helper lasted for a few nights. But we were clean, had a roof, did our homework & went to church every Sunday as a family. She also, had MS to make things harder on her.
Now she is in a Nursing Home & still knows who we are, not so much the Grand kids. My brother is in charge of the Western US for an international company(and a great Dad), my sister is a stay at home Mom, that is almost done with her PHD & I am a sales rep. in the medical field & a patient councilor. We all do volentee work, are good hard working family people.
My Mom is the best & I tell her every day when I see her.

Answer 3

There are some things I do that my mom would DEFINITELY not approve of! But as far as her raising me she done a GREAT job.......... At least I have family ties that run strong and I respect my elders and other ppl's opinions

Answer 4

I think my mom did an awesome job raising me! Dad left when I was 9, so it was basically just her and me. She's instilled some very deep morals in me which I carry with me every day. My mom is my best friend.

Answer 5

My mom did an ok job. Sadly enuf she wasn't around much so I'd have to say if either parent had the larger influence it'd be my dad. However i was kinda left to grow up by myself. So i'd have to say that I did a good job!!!!

Answer 6

Yes, she did a great job. She was a single mother, worked extremely hard so my brother and I would have things, but most important, she taught me how to love my children unconditionally, which is how I raised mine, and we are so close...

Answer 7

My mom did a good job explaning about my period. After that, not much else. But she did her best, it just was not good enough. I've spent my entire life fixing the mess she and my dad left.

Answer 8

My mom did a terrible job and I think i turned out extremely well in spite of everything.

Answer 9

for sure, such as you suggested, it would possibly no longer rely, nor could desire to it even arise. in case you have chose to proceed over anlayzing, you may desire to argue that in case you had a hoop on, the interviewer could desire to ask your self once you are going to ultimately get pregnant and pass over artwork for that. yet all that could desire to have quite no bearing on the interview technique. i think of you may desire to anticipate that the interviewer is a expert and you may desire to easily present day your self because of the fact an identical. Marital/social status shouldn't ingredient in in any respect.

Answer 10

I am just not as sweet as my mum was, and i am not a dog lover. apart from that i think she would approve. I am a good, honest and kind person.
