5.I had the meanest mother in the whole world.While other kids ate candy for breakfast,I had to
have porridge,eggs or toast.When others had Cokes and candy for lunch,I had to eat a sandwich.But at least I wasn't alone when I was sad.My sister and two brothers had the same mean(刻薄的)mother as I did.
My mother preferred to know where we were all the time.She had to know our friends were and where we were going.We had to clean clothes and take a bath every day.The other kids got to wear the same clothes for days.We had to clean clothes and take a bath every day.The other kids got to wear the same clothes for days.We could not lie in bed"sick"in order to misss chool.
The worst is yet come.We had to be in bed by nine each night and get up at eight the next morning We couldn't sleep till noon like our friends.So while they slept,my mother was brave to break the Child Labour Law.She made us work.We had to wash dishes,makebeds,and learn to cook and all sorls of things at home.I believe she lay awake thinking up all things for us to do.
My mother was a complete failure as a mother.Two of her children received higher education.None of us have ever been arrested(taken away by the police)or divorced.She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults.I am trying to raise my three children this way.I am filled with pride when my children call me"mean".Why?Because now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the world
