What is a Mean Mother?

This was sent anonymously to me in the mail...after 10 years of parenting teens, I see a flicker of light... A mean mother never allows candy or sweets to take the place of a well-balanced diet A mean mother insists on knowing where her kids are at all times, who their friends are and what they do A mean mother makes her children wash dishes, make beds, cook & do other cruel and unpleasant chores A mean mother makes life miserable for her offspring by insisting that they always tell the truth A mean mother has teenagers that are more wise & sensible and smiles w/ delight when they call her mean What the world needs now are more mean mothers...and mean fathers too!
