Meanest Mom in the World

Do you remember thinking that your mom was the “meanest mom in the world”? I remember feeling and thinking that on numerous occasions growing up, especially during my teenage years. I also remember my mom proudly displaying an excerpt from the Ann Landers column in the newspaper entitled, “Meanest Mother in the World” on the side of the refrigerator. Does anyone else remember that?

 

In today’s episode, I’m going to read that excerpt and share five benefits I see now as an adult and a parent myself of having and proudly wearing the badge, “meanest mother in the world”. But you could add Dad to that—Meanest Mom or Dad or both, in the world, because my dad also played this role.

These 5 benefits are:

1. Discipline and Responsibility

2. Strong Moral Values

3. Work Ethic

4. Independence and Self-Sufficiency

5. Long Term Success

 

I would love to hear your “meanest mom or dad in the world” stories. Please share them below!
