TWENTY THINGS A MOM SHOULD TELL HER
SON
1. Play a sport.
It will teach you how to win honorably, lose
gracefully, respect authority, work with
others, manage your time, and stay out of trouble.
And maybe even throw or catch.
2. You will set the
tone for the dating relationship, so don't take something away from her that
you can't give back.
3. Use careful aim
when you pee. Somebody's got to clean that up, you know.
5. Allow me to
introduce you to the dishwasher, oven, washing machine, iron, vacuum, mop and
broom.
Now please go use them.
6. Pray and be a
spiritual leader.
7. Don't ever be a
bully and don't ever start a fight, but
if some idiot clocks you, please defend yourself.
8. Your knowledge
and education is something that nobody can take away from you.
9. Treat women
kindly.
Forever is a long time to live alone and it's
even longer to live with somebody who hates your guts.
10. Take pride in
your appearance.
11. Be strong and
tender at the same time.
12. A woman can do
everything that you can do.
This includes her having a successful career and
you changing diapers at 3 A.M.Mutual respect is the key to a good relationship.
13. "Yes
ma'am" and "yes sir” still go a long way.
14. The reason that
they're called "private parts” is because they're "private".
Please do not scratch them in public.
15. Peer pressure is
a scary thing.
Be a good leader and others will follow.
16. Bringing her
flowers for no reason is always a good idea.
17. It is better to
be kind than to be right.
18. A sense of humor
goes a long way in the healing process.
19. Please choose
your spouse wisely.
My daughter-in-law will be the gatekeeper for
me spending time with you and my grandchildren.
20. Remember to call
your mother because I might be missing you.
May 2013 be a year of blessing!
