Mom knows best

Ive experienced like that also...especially when shes gone i realized all the things that she told me is right.Now i can say that their is no mom who wants her daughter or son to make their lives missirable.

Oh yes. There has been moments when I do same as you do and also there has been moments when I listen to my mom. I have found her correct on manier occasions when I argued with her. I am controlling my foolishness these days by payiong emphasis on what she says. After all moms know us best.

Yes, when I was young I did not listen to my mom advice since I am inlove with someone and i just allowed him to hurt my heart. If only i've listen to my mom i'll never feel that very painful experienced in my life.

Hi friend, always i follow the elders suggestion and advice, so i never feel in this sort. Elders are experienced persons and they know what is good and what is bad, they always guide us in a good manner and we must follow their words to avoid this kind of regrets

In some instances, what you have said really happened to me. Those instances can be attributed to the amount of experience an elder has like my mother. Despite of this reason, it does not apply to other instances because there are things that others especially the younger ones may know but the elderly ones do not know.

I never experienced that. Indeed, what we think is good is not necessarily good but what we think is a good mother normally it will result in a good thing anyway. Although we have a brilliant idea what's wrong if the mother gives advice accept these suggestions so that we can produce something good.

Well, that's how we are when we were young. We usually would not follow our mothers' advices. But , they would always turn out to be true. Mothers know best, as they say and that is true, because they always speak through what they have experienced.

hi!! i agree mom knows best because i remember before i never follow what she said( i want to go to beach)i join with my friends while going to beach i fell in the motor,prior that she told me dont go with your friends because you are graduating student there something bad to happen. after that day i told my self i should follow what mom say.

When I was very young, I used to see my elder sister seeking mom's advice in every little thing. My sister would always get benefit of her advice. Once when I was in sixth standard, I fell ill after my last mid term exam. I didn't go to school for the next two days due to high fever. On third day my friend informed me on phone that our teacher would be showing the papers the next day. I insisted my mother to let me go to school, but she asked me to rest for one more day. She said don't worry your ma'am won't show the papers today. I thought better to listen to mom, so I didn't go to school that day. In the evening I called my friend to ask her about the result. To my surprise she said, "Today was a free day, no classes were held on account of some preparations for some sister's feast day". Since that day I have had many experiences in life where my mom's advice has worked for me. I take her words very seriously and completely follow her advice. Even today my sister after being a mother of two children seeks mom's advice in every little matter. My sister's children rely on her advice. I wish I could be a sweet and omniscient mother to my children like my mom has been to us.

I just used to seek my parent's advice before I do something special in our life. I feel my mother's and my father's advice are quite valuable and it is my duty to obey it, only if it is quite fit my mind. Still now their decisions was just hold inside my hand which helped me to find success in most of the time.

It is said that we can only fully understand our mothers if we have become mothers ourselves. Most of the time, they went through what we're going through; and lived through what we're currently living through. That's how most parents are, fiercely protective and loving to their kids that if only it is possible they will forever shield them from the world. But of course, its not possible and they have to let us go and experience the world for us to learn. They will of course tell us what needs to be done and since we can't understand them, we'll end up doing and learning things our own way.

This is just not the case alone with you probably but with most of us as well. Generally, we tend to not care very much of advice that our parents or our very close relatives give to us. It is however, not the case always that we do not listen to their advice. As we tend to believe that we are grown up enough so we can live by our own decisions or opinions of things or people. We regret when we see we are wrong. We should perhaps pay a bit more heed to what our parents tell us.

Yes , I agree mother knows best but it's up to us if we follow or not, we are given a free will to decide. Just like me sometimes I don't follow my Nanay and I regret in the end and I just blame myself to my wrong decision.

I believe Mom as my True friend. Here is a link for the poem written by me dedicated to my Mom. http://authspot.com/poetry/a-true-friend-39/

i cant agree with you any more.in my country,there is a slang expression which means you will suffer losses if you are not willing to take the olders advices.cause i think our mothers have more experience than us.
