Responsibilities of a Mother
Did a kid fall off a bike? She’s there with a band-aid and a distraction. “Look! A butterfly!” That’s her medical technique. Distraction is 90% of medicine.
She also performs the “kiss-it-better” procedure. Science says it doesn’t heal wounds. But the placebo effect is real, folks. And mothers are masters of the placebo.

If a child cries over a paper cut, a mother treats it like a heart transplant. She’ll say, “Oh, you poor thing!” while secretly rolling her eyes. It’s a performance. And she deserves an Oscar.
Quirky fact: The average mom dispenses 1,437 band-aids before a kid turns ten. Half of those are for invisible injuries. But we don’t judge.
