Mother's Day can be a wonderful
celebration, but it is also a very
dangerous day for youth and
fathers. The biggest peril is
buying a Mother's Day Gift.

Mother’s Day can be a wonderful
celebration, but it is also a very
dangerous day for youth and fathers.
The biggest peril is buying a Mother’s
Day Gift. After all, everyone is
supposed to know what she wants.
Unfortunately, it’s not always so easy.
So, whether you are a youth or the
husband, here are some Mother’s
Day gifts to avoid. Of course there are
mothers who do love some these
gifts, but for the most part, the rest of
the world’s mothers would be
delighted if you carefully avoid them.

Hopefully this list will keep you out of
trouble, but then again, mother’s also
have this uncanny desire to be
different, to be an exception to the
norm, sometimes just to keep you
guessing.
Of course, regardless of what you get
her, she’ll tell you how much she
loves it. After all, she’s your mom. But
later, when you are out of site, she’ll
wonder why her son or daughter or
husband couldn’t think of something
more personal.

Mother’s Day Gifts that Youth to Avoid
Anything Vaguely Related to Weight
No matter how much mom talks about
wanting to lose weight, Mother’s Day is
NOT the day to give her a loving hand with
her love handles. Forget the diet books,
the exercise equipment, the membership
to the slimming salon. Nothing says “I love
you, Mom” quite like anything that hints at
weight loss, getting healthier, or looking
better. Stay away from anything designed
to let her know where she could use a little
improvement.
HINT: Don’t use Mother’s Day to buy a
mom a scale, a tape measure, or anything
that even vaguely suggests that mom is
not incredibly beautiful just the way she is!

Clothes
Clothes are a lose-lose situation. If
they are too small, she’ll think she’s fat
because she can’t wear them. If they
are too big then she’ll be offended
that you think she is so fat. And don’t
event mention colors and fashion.
HINT: Clothes are best avoided at all
costs unless you taker her shopping!

Anything for the Bathroom
The rose scented bubble bath that you
bought her last year is still under her
bathroom sink, unopened. So is the
one from the year before that.
Scented soaps and bath gels carry a
subtle hint that mom stinks and needs
to bathe more often. And, you will be
grown and have youth of your own
long before mom finds the time for a
relaxing soak in a Bubble Bath!
HINT: Avoid bath soaps, shampoo,
bubble bath, and shower gels

Cleaning Supplies
While mothers often complain about
how much easier it would be to
clean the house if they had the new
Tornado 2000 vacuum cleaner that
sucks up every speck of dust in sight,
or that new self-wringing mop from
the infomercial on late night TV,
Mother’s Day is not the day to
entertain her cleaning needs.
Anything used to clean doesn’t say “I
love You, Mom” but instead hints
that she isn’t doing enough around
the house to clean up after the youth
and kids.

Even though you are trying to get her
something to lighten her workload,
the last thing she wants to be
reminded of on Mother’s Day is that
she is the same level as a live in
maid.
HINT: Why not clean the entire house
for your mom on Mother’s Day. She
might pass out in shock, but at least
she’ll have a smile on her face.

Household Appliances
Don’t give mom gifts that make her
work harder. Mother’s Day is about
appreciation and relaxation, not
cleaning appliances and sanitation.
Its not about a new washer, a steam
cleaner, a sewing machine, and
most certainly not about the new
iron. And if you are replacing
something that’s broken — it
doesn’t even count as a Mother’s
Day gift. Giving appliances for
Mother’s Day is like your boss giving
you work to take home on the
weekend.

HINT: Surprise her with the
appliances on another day of the
year, just to say “I love you.” And
instead of simply presenting it to her
all wrapped up in a box, take it out,
use it to get the job done, then tie a
bow on it. Mom will love that you
helped out more than the fact that
you got her a gift.

Things for the Kitchen
Just because mom admired the new
turbo toaster that not only toasts but
also butters the bread, doesn’t mean
that mother’s day is the her special day
to get one. After all, how often does she
make toast for herself? Sure, these
appliances might make her life a little
easier in the kitchen, but you’re the one
she cooks for anyway!
HINT: Avoid anything that hints at the
kitchen – bread makers, knives, food
processors, blenders, can openers, salt
and pepper shakers, pots, pans, aprons
are best avoided. Surprise her with them
on another day!

Something on Your Personal Wish list
Mother’s Day is not the day to kill to
birds with one stone. Who’s going to
spend the most time glued in front of
the new 3D LCD TV? Nor do they want
sports equipment, or anything for a car.
If you are a youth who already has a
driver’s license, why not take her
shopping.
HINT: Moms don’t want basketballs,
sports shoes, soccer balls, new
windshield wiper blades, floor mats,
unless they have a true passion for such
things.

Anything that’s Alive and Needs
Mom’s Help to Stay Alive!
If it poops, slithers, or crawls and
needs to eat or drink, it is probably
not a good idea. Houseplants that
need care are probably out too.
Maybe a tree or a rosebush planted
outside that requires little care
would work if she likes such things.
Mother’s gave gifts like these send
the message: “Hey mom, you don’t
have enough to do. Taking care of
the pets and watering the plants will
keep you from getting bored around
the house while I am at school!” We
all know that eventually, she’ll be
responsible for taking care of them!

HINT: Flowers are ok, as long as they
are given together with something
else. Given by themselves they just
reveal that you thought about a
Mother’s Day gift for the 5 minutes it
took to put it on your dad’s credit
card.

IOU Coupons and Homemade Gifts
Offering free housecleaning,
dishwashing or to walk the is nice. But
shouldn’t dad and the youth be doing
these things once in a while for mom
anyway? Anyway, when was the last
time a mom successfully redeemed a
coupon for these services. Life’s busy
schedule always seems to get in the
way. And somehow the redemption
always seems to be requested at the
busiest times. Homemade gifts are
just as risky. Moms usually treasure
the thought when you are really
young, and they may stay on the shelf
for public display, long after you have
grown up and left home.

But as your grow older, homemade
gifts will be fussed over and
displayed for a while, but them
placed in a drawer and forgotten
unless they are really well done.
And this includes anything that has
“#1 Mom” written on it. They are
great for yard sales, but every other
mom has one just like it.
HINT: Personalize gifts when you
can, but be very careful with picture
frames, homemade jewelry, and arts
and crafts.

Things Mom Needs
There are always things that Mom’s
need. A new towel, sheets for the
bed, diaper bags, craft supplies. The
list is never ending. But Mom’s
deserve something SPECIAL on
Mother’s Day. If it is something she
needs, save ot for another day. These
kinds of things should be provided as
needed anyway. And a new
computer probably isn’t the best
either, though she might enjoy an
ipad 2. Anyway, everyone knows you
want the new computer to play the
latest online games and chat with
your friends on facebook.

HINT: Instead of giving her
something functional, get her
something extravagant for
mother’s day. It doesn’t have to
cost a lot, it just needs to be out of
the ordinary.

E-Gifts and Cards
We live in the internet age, but
Mom’s won’t find virtual gifts very
endearing. “Dear Mom, I cared
enough to send you the very best e-
card!” Mom likes the joy of opening
a present and holding something real
in her hands. This includes online
games, facebook additions,
computer wallpapers and emails.
And you ought to be giving her
digital photos on a regular basis
anyway! A simple text message is
even worse.

HINT: It’s always best to meet her in
person and present a physical gift,
even if it is your presence, rather
than give her anything digital. If
you want to give her something
digital, why not give her that sheik
new smartphone, a digital picture
frame loaded with all your favorite
photos or a nice new digital
camera. Just make sure you are
buying it for her, and not for
yourself!

The Absolute WORST Mother’s Day
Gift
Don’t get her anything at all, don’t do
anything with her, or completely
forget that today is her special day!
Nothing says “I love you” like
forgetting about the very special
woman who spent years changing
your diaper, packing your lunch and
yelling at you to “clean your room”
while quietly cleaning it for you while
you were away at school.
HINT: Even if you have to buy her a
last-minute gift, and break all the
rules above, never show up empty
handed on Mother’s Day!

Be sure and wish your Mom
a wonderful and Blessed
Mother’s Day!
