Which TV mom are you most like?

June Cleaver.

Roseanne.

Annie Camden, the mom on 7th Heaven.

Mom eating salad.

Success! They’re watching me turn my life around.

Nothing. They don't seem to notice.

“Thank you, sweetie!”

“Oh, you’re too sweet.”

“I look like a cow!”

Always. We generally like the same foods, even when I watch what I eat.

Never. He likes hearty meals, and I’m trying to watch what I eat.

It usually doesn’t matter. We eat different meals at different times.

Five or more times a week. We try to make it a priority.

Three or four times a week, depending on the week.

Twice a week, if we’re lucky. Usually it’s more like once.

Snacks, snacks, snacks.

Nothing. I make the decisions

Anything from carrots to salsa to chocolate ice cream.

Hit the movies.

Ride our bikes, go to the park … something active.

Same thing we’d do on a rainy Saturday: Stay in.

“Go outside and play!”

Nothing. I never see them.

“Want to go for a walk?” (or bike ride or swim…)

Keep taking seconds — or thirds — until the food is gone. We don’t want leftovers.

We don’t usually have seconds, unless someone’s hungry for more.

No seconds. One portion, and that’s it.

Video games, of course.

Hockey equipment. He’s going out for the team this year.

You asked, and he mumbled, “I don’t care.”

Yes.

No.

Sort of, in abstract terms.
