My mom was a spitfire.
She taught me always to stand up to bullies.... and she stood up to elders on many occasions.
She taught me how to cook and bake.
She taught me what love is and isn't.

WASBLIND - true, and I did certainly learn the type of person I absolutely do not want to be f rom my mother. My wife says she's amazed I am who I am considering. Not a trace of my mother's nonsense in me.

My mother taught me to always think for myself. She did this by her bad example and it didn't sink in completely until just before I joined this forum.
She was very much a JW when she did this.

Not to be afraid of life...she is afraid of everything, and is a constant downer-she will see the bad side of anything!
