1、I have the meanest mother in the world.  36 other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have eggs and toast. Others had Cokes and candy for 37 while I had to eat a sandwich. As you can guess, my supper was 38 other kids’. But at last, I wasn’t 39  in my sufferings. My sister and two brothers had the same mean mother as I did.  

My mother 40  on knowing where we were at all times. She had to know who our 41 were and where we were going. We had to wear 42 clothes every day. Other kids always wore their 43 for days. We reached the height of disgrace（不體面）because she made our clothes herself, just to 44 money.  

The 45 was yet to come. We had to be 46 by 9:00 each night and up at 7:45 the next morning. So while my friends slept, my mother actually had the courage to 47 Child Labor Law. She made us work. I believed she lay 48 all nights thinking up mean things to do to us. Through the years, our friends’ report cards had beautiful colors on them, black for passing, red for 49 . My mother, however, would merely be content with 50 marks. None of us was allowed the 51 of being a dropout（逃避現(xiàn)實的人）.  

She 52 us to grow up into educated and honest adults. Using this as a background, I’m now trying to 53 my three children. I’m filled with pride when my children think I am 54 because now I 55 God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the world.
