There’s an image of the meek mum, doing the washing for the returning student offspring, making five dinners because everybody likes something different, and being the one person who can find things. This may well be a true picture, but she’s also a sassy, funny and sometimes brutal woman who will burn you if it gets a laugh.

These 15 examples of mum brutality are just a drop in the ocean of amazing motherhood.

1. Saving her legs

So I’m sitting on the sofa with my son watching TV and he hears he got a text on his phone that he left in the kitchen so he goes to get his phone and it’s a text from me, “please bring the chips and a Diet Pepsi on your way back”.

2. Dealing with racists

My mom just joined Twitter and saw all the racist messages where people tell me to "go home" and "go back to where I came from." She wanted me to thank you all. She really wants me to move back to Texas.
