If moms are so mean why do they care?

It appears as if they are being mean only because you can't see things from their viewpoint. In other Words, you are not mature enough to see it from their view and how they have always done the best for you, even when you think they are being mean, when they aren't.

because they want the best for you, and they have to be mean sometimes to do it! (i know its weird!!!)
