    2. My Mother taught me about RECEIVING....
    "Oh You're going to get it when we get home!"

    3. My Mother taught me to MEET A CHALLENGE...
    "What were you thinking? Answer me when I talk to you ... Don't talk back to me!"

    4. My Mother taught me LOGIC...
    "If you fall out of that swing and break your neck, your not going to the shop with me."

    5. My Mother taught me MEDICAL SCIENCE...
    "If you don't stop crossing your eyes, they are going to freeze that way."

    6. My Mother taught me to THINK AHEAD...
    "If you don't pass your spelling test, you'll never get a good job."

    7. My Mother taught me ESP...
    "Put your sweater on; don't you think I know when you're cold?"

    8. My Mother taught me HUMOR...
