I was a very bad girl. I guess that experience is helping me now as a mother. My daughter can't fool me as easily. I know a lot of the old tricks and I am mindful of that.

We all been bad but whats good is we learn and straightening up those mistakes we did when we are young and naive.
The message is simple to our kids we want to see them walking in the right path. And we want them to pass that to our grandkids as well.
Thanks mamasan34 for participating.

My grandma told my aunt once that she (my aunt) would have a daughter that turns out worse than her. Guess what? That's exactly what happened! My aunt is always telling grandma that she (grandma) cursed her lmao!

Why not? A bad girl should always be a bad mother also?.I do not know who said this. A change in life can come at any time and at any stage. To my knowledge a mother will never be a bad mother to her children, even if she was a bad girl in her young age. That is the beauty of motherhood.

No mother is said to be bad to her children season0907, there are mothers that are bad and still bad and bad examples to their children, but majority that i know..been bad before but the good thing is they are very protective to avoid their kids to walk in the same path she went through. Thanks.

Well I am not a mother but I have noticed when a woman has led a rather free life not saying they are bad, everyone is a little bad at times, but i think when a woman has been there they are rather strict on their children as they have learnt a lot of lessons, same goes for fathers at times, you see a man who has had a lot of woman experience be very strict on his daughters especiallt because he has has been there, done that and does not want it to happen to his daughters....just my opinion...I think a lot of parents who have lived want to protect their children from going down the same road...

Exactly lilaclady, we never want to see our kids going to the wrong direction. We want to see them grow and be a better person..You will realize that darling once you have your own kids. Its not being strict your just straightening up for your kids. Goodluck on yah !

When I was a teen I ran around all hours of the night, drank underage, dropped out of school and did all sorts of bad things. When I got pregnant at 18 everything changed. I had no choice but to grow up, and fast.
Now I know all the things that I don't want my kids to do. I am very protetive of them. I just don't want then to be like I was when I was a teenager.

under age drinking, partying, yup, i was always getting myself into trouble. I was doing whatever i wanted whenever I wanted. Than I got pregnant by my boyfriend of four years. THe one I was getting into trouble with. Getting pregnant makes you grow up real quick. No more running around being immature. To make matters worse he bailed as soon as I said the word baby. So I have to do twice the growing up to be the responsible. I never heard the saying but I like it. It seems to be true. my son is 6 now and i am 25. I honestly dunno what kind of trouble I would be in now if it wasn;t for him. When you get pregnant, well i know in my case anyway it made me straighten-out and get myself together real quick

OMG!! phillygirl606, I guess were on the same page that day. im also 25 and my eldest son is 6, Ive been partying and drag racing and drinking all the things that a youngsters could possibly do.\
The good thing when I had the baby, I hugged and accept motherhood without regretting anything, My ex never wanted that baby but i fought for his right to live.
The thing that makes us good mothers because we know whats going to be like if we dont take the words of someone who is senior than us. But now that we are a mother and we have kids makes us better and it we've gone through all the obstacles and hardships in life. But still standing and believing that we can do it.
Thanks Gurl Goodluck!

I like this saying.and looking back i beleve it true FOR MUST mothers..unfortunatly not all of us. some cant get out of that bad stage and drag there children down into it..but for the most part it helps because now u know the real dangers, what is good and what is bad,even though we did it.we knew the effect it had and wether it was bad or not,we just choose to do these things anyways....it helps to have been there done that..

Nah. I've always been a boring good girl. I was an abused child and I think that has helped me be a good mother. It has helped me know about the dangers out there and has helped me be able to warn my children about them. Even someone close to you that is supposed to protect you can hurt you.
