@@crystald3346 I heard that line, but that is what is socially expected from a mother. What was more telling was what she didn't say. I can only hope I'm way off base here, for that guy's sake. The fact that she chose to call into a national TV show...to publicly chastise her sons....and use that time to try to embarrass them into not ruining her holiday is rather telling of what is important to her (and that is herself). Sadly, not every mother is an empathic, nurturing mother, and the way she talked about them....it wasn't easy to raise them....they ruin family Thanksgiving...."we're responsible for them because we raised them"... Those are NOT the words of a mother who is truly loving and/or proud of her children. How she comes across is the antithesis of nurturing, loving, and empathic, sadly.

Even the people who vote for someone of their party will call them a "wolf in sheep's clothing" just because a couple ideals do not match theirs, even though 90% of the stuff that the person they voted for does is favorable for the people.
