4. She limited her children's food options. We are short order cooks, or take them out for fast food, or order in.
5. She had fewer clothing choices, wore all-purpose dresses and outfits. We overload our closets, and still only wear 20% of what's in there.
6. She didn't spend her free time on the computer or watching a Lifetime movie marathon. We waste precious time on Facebook or surfing the net.

9. She stayed involved with her kid's lives and choices of friends (see: Eddie Haskell). We give up because it's all too much to keep track of.
10. She greeted her family with joy. We let stress take over because we have so much going on.
