Okay, I must confess that I love me some Real Housewives of Orange County, but I do NOT consider them great moms! Each one is more self-obsessed than the next. As a matter of fact, probably the only mom I really like and think is a good mom is Tori Spelling! If you had told me 5 years ago that someday I would think Tori Spelling was a good mom, I would have laughed and then thrown a drink in your face.
But, as it turns out, not only do I really like her, but I think we are very similar! And my husband has a man-crush on Dean. We are the Tori and Dean of Eastern Washington, let me tell ya!
When I saw this list, I also thought, "Aren't there more reality TV moms than all the housewives a couple of other attention-starved weirdos?!" But I'm having trouble coming up with any. Yikes. I don't need Grace to grow up thinking this is how moms are...where have all the Claire Huxtables gone?
Is there a mom you identify with on TV these days?
-Grace's Mom
And dont tell folks that your mom is like Roseanne! And i'm not liking the comparisons to Granny Clampitt, either! I think i'm more like Kathy Griffin's mother, only switch the box of wine to my favored Jack Daniels."Honestly, Kathleen"....
ReplyDeleteI watched Tori & Dean while housesitting once (I don't get that channel) and I actually liked it! I love Donna- I mean, Tori Spelling. :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the Orange county Housewives! Or I should say I LOVE to hate them...They are like watching a trainwreck! You can't stop watching, you want to look away, you should, you know it's gonna end bad, but you just can't. I think I identify with Reba as a mom. I had a hard time with that one. But, she is kind of sarcastic, realistic, loving but very DEVOTED AND THERE for her family. Oh and don't forget funny...
ReplyDeleteOOps! I forgot, Out of THOSE choices? I'd definately choose Tori. Kates just ok "as a mom" but I watch Kardashians alot, and I could slap Kris! She's manipulative...
