What's The Best Advice And Wisdom Your Mom Ever Gave You? Patch Mother’s Day Survey

Moms know best. It’s a cliché because, universally, it’s almost always true.

What’s the best advice your mother ever gave? What piece of wisdom did she pass on that helped you chart your life?

In celebration of Mother’s Day, which is on May 11 this year, we’re honoring moms across the nation for their wisdom and strength.

Tell us about your mother’s — your mother figure’s — guiding words, and it may be featured in a Mother’s Day story on Patch.

If you’d like to include a photo of your mom and family, send it to beth.dalbey@patch.com. We just need you to verify you have rights to the photo and tell us who to credit.
