So your mom is obsessed with your appearance...
As you’re getting ready for school, your mom gives you the once-over and tells you to tuck in the front pocket of your jeans. Are you appreciative? Kind of, but why is she always so worried about your appearance? It’s not like you can’t take care of yourself. Well, here’s what you have to realize:
From the time you were the tiniest of tots, your mom has been responsible for your appearance. When your face was dirty, people didn’t think, “Why doesn’t that kid wash her face?” Instead, they thought, “Why doesn’t her mom wash her face?” Remember that time when you were three and you ripped your tights right as your family was getting out of the car for your Aunt Carrie’s wedding? Of course, you don’t. You were THREE. But your mom remembers the smirks and the stares. And she hasn’t gotten over it since. She knows you’re getting older and becoming your own person, but she still sees you as an extension of herself. But don’t worry, she’ll stop doing that when you’re….well, actually, my mom still does it to me and I’m ancient. Sorry, kiddo. I guess that’s just part of that wonderful mom-daughter relationship.
