What is something your mum used to say to you when you were a kid?​

Hey members!

How have you all been? I have another fun question for you today. With Mother's Day just around the corner, it got me thinking about the countless memories and stories we have of our incredible mums. I want to know: what is something your mother used to say to you when you were a kid that still sticks with you today? Maybe it was a phrase that always made you feel better when you were feeling down or some sage advice that you still live by. Or perhaps it was just a funny expression that always made you laugh. Whatever it was, let's take a moment to share it and celebrate the fantastic women who have supported us through thick and thin.

Something my mother used to say to me when I did not like my food as a kid was, 'There are children starving all over the world; eat your dinner’. I knew it was just her way of getting me to eat my vegetables, but I couldn't help but feel guilty for not finishing what was on my plate.

Mum used some interesting words.. Bijingo!! and codswallop. My favourite was "a wigwam for a goose's bridal" ,if we asked what something was that we weren't supposed to know.

“Hold your horses “ if we were being impatient about something

When I tried to do something that didn't quite turn out my Mum would say "well, a blind man would be happy to see it!"

 

[Bullwinkle]

“You better watch out, the wind will change and your face will look like that forever”, when I would be pulling faces!!

You can please some but you can’t please all

You are not leaving this table, until you have finished everything on your plate! ….. and I would still be sitting there until nearly dinner time.

"Turn out that light and go to sleep NOW, your father and I want to sleep"

Oh, I had my own room, but mum hoped I would fall asleep before them, as my room was next to theirs's so she could see my light on. I used to turn the light out for her but sat under the covers drawing or reading. Even as a small child I only slept about 3 hours out of every 24, unless I was sick. I'm still the same in my mid 60's. Been like this since I was the age of four.

If you do it properly the first time you won't have to do it again.

Also I use to stand and wait for the item to jump out and say 'Here I am '
Mum said You actually have to move things and look properly lol

 

[Glenda48]

When small and getting smacked as was allowed in those days. “This hurts me more than it hurts you”. I never understood that until I was a mother.

 

[Vet543]
