Mom Says It Best: Be Prepared To Be Told You're Wrong

BEACHWOOD, OH — Being a mother means being told you're wrong...a lot.

That's what Danuelle DeMartino's mother told her years ago. It was a sage warning.

"The day my daughter was born my mom told me, " From this moment on, you will never be right again." Twenty-three years later it's still true. Someone is always telling you that you're doing something wrong with your children and then your children grow up and they tell you you're wrong."

Still, DeMartino was grateful for the heads up. It helped prepare her for the future.

"Best advice ever," she said.
