| Things moms and kids shouldn't ever say
Even when you're really angry these are things mothers and children should never say to each other - they are guaranteed to haunt you for years.
- I told you so
-
When are you getting married?
- What have you done to your hair?
- Do you really think red and orange look nice together?

- Does this place ever get cleaned?
- Do you know you are going bald?
- You just could not imagine what a difficult birth I had with you
- Why can’t you be more like Betty’s son/daughter
- If you loved me you would do the dishes
- You are just like your father (and he is in prison/ an alcoholic, ran off with a neighbour)
- Have you picked up weight?
- You paid how much for that?
- Maybe it is not too late to make something of your life
- Here’s the number of that psychologist I told you about
- If it wasn’t for you, I might have had a career too

- Are you stupid, or something?
- No wonder you’re single - look at the way you dress
