Moms View Message Board: Parenting Discussion: Archive July-December 2004: Why God Made Mom's
By Rayanne on Monday, October 4, 2004 - 12:11 pm:

Why God made Moms.
Enjoy the answers given by elementary school age
children to the following questions:


Why did God make mothers?
1. She's the only one who knows where the scotch tape is.
2. Mostly to clean the house.
3. To help us out of there when we were getting born.

How did God make mothers?
1. He used dirt, just like for the rest of us.
2. Magic plus super powers and a lot of stirring.
3. God made my mom just the same like he made me. He just used bigger parts.

What ingredients are mothers made of?
1. God makes mothers out of clouds and angel hair and everything nice in the world and one dab of mean.
2. They had to get their start from men's bones. Then they mostly use string. I think.

Why did God give you your mother and not some other mom?
1. We're related.
2. God knew she likes me a lot more than other people's moms like me.

What kind of little girl was your mom?
1. My mom has always been my mom and none of that other stuff.
2. I don't know because I wasn't there, but my guess would be pretty bossy.
3. They say she used to be nice.

What did mom need to know about dad before she married him?
1. His last name.
2. She had to know his background. Like is he a crook? Does he make at least $800 a year? Did he say NO to drugs and YES to chores.

Why did your mom marry your dad?
1. My dad makes the best spaghetti in the world. And my mom eats a lot.
2. She got too old to do anything else with him.
3. My grandma says that mom didn't have her thinking cap on.

Who's the boss at your house?
1. Mom doesn't want to be boss, but she has to because dad's such a goofball.
2. Mom. You can tell by room inspection. She sees the stuff under the bed.
3. I guess Mom is, but only because she has a lot more to do than dad.

What's the difference between moms and dads?
1. Moms work at work and work at home, and dads just got to work at work.
2. Moms know how to talk to teachers without scaring them.
3. Dads are taller and stronger, but moms have all the real power 'cause that's who you got to ask if you want to sleep over at your friend's.

What does your mom do in her spare time?
1. Mothers don't do spare time.
2. To hear her tell it, she pays bills all day long.

What would it take to make your mom perfect?
1. On the inside she's already perfect. Outside, I think some kind of plastic surgery.
2. Diet. You know, her hair. I'd diet, maybe blue.

If you could change one thing about your mom, what would it be?
1. She has this weird thing about me keeping my room clean. I'd get rid of that.
2. I'd make my mom smarter. Then she would know it was my sister who did it and not me.

I know this isn't the debate board, so I apologize in advance for posting something which may stir something up.

Personally, assuming these are real responses from real kids, I think these jokes, while mostly cute, are a sad commentary of what our little ones are being raised to value in life.

"...dad is such a goofball."
"...dads just got to work at work."


Translation : "Men are lazy."

"...moms have all the power 'cause that's who you got to ask if you want to sleep over at a friend's."

Translation : "Mom will always let you do what dad says not to."

"Outside, I think some kind of plastic surgery."

Translation : "If there is something about your physical appearance you don't like, just get your body altered with plastic surgery and you will be perfect."

I don't believe that hostility towards men is funny, I believe in promoting respect for dad's authority in the home and not undermining it, and I want my son to appreciate his body as God has given it to him. This would be most important for girls to know.

I know I may be making a big deal out of this. It is, after all, just a joke, for fun. But I am not laughing at those lines.
