When I was a kid, I used to take my sister shopping in town on mother's day so we could give my mother a break. I guess that was a little different though, because that was us giving mum some time alone after we'd done the wakeup and dodgy homemeade card thing. That wasn't her getting rid of us...

The more I read, the more it sounds like that woman has no maternal feelings whatsoever. She's reminds me somewhat of a seahorse...
