No matter where or when you grew up, you are likely to relate to the advice and admonishments mothers frequently voice when parenting. See if
- Eat your vegetables, they’re good for you.
- Put that down, you don’t know where it’s been.
- If everyone else jumped off a cliff would you do it too?
- Don’t do as I say, do as I do.
- Don’t read in the dark.
- Turn the music down.
- Not till you’ve had your dinner.
- When you are older.
- Brush your teeth.
