There are many things our mothers taught us over the years.
Yes, Irish mammies are a gift from the Gods.
However, not everything they taught us growing up was of value or even true.
A trending hashtag on Twitter is revealing some of the harsh truths and non-truths that our mothers told us growing up and they’re both hilarious and adorable.
Yes, from telling us about ‘the man’ that would take us away if we misbehaved, to sharing their words of wisdom about life, mams taught us a lot and #MyMomAlwaysToldMe is paying tribute to just that.
Here are some of the best things our mammies taught us.
