The Mom Song



Have you heard "The Mom Song" by comedienne Anita Renfroe? The YouTube sensation has been seen many times, both on television and the Internet. Here is the premise: in just about three minutes she sings all the things a mom might say in a typical day. Very funny and entertaining!


Of course, as many discussions between parents and teens there are probably going to be some comments. Let's watch Ms. Renfore's version. And of course the teen's perspective. Is that a natural thing to follow the first video? After you have viewed the videos, post your comments (remember 3-5 sentences).

The mom is is pretty funny but its true that's how life seems. Then the teen version shows how we feel about the matter. Either way the videos shows how we really feel. So I like them.

The Mom Song is really funny. I think it is a really good way to tell what moms have to go through almost everyday. My grandma is the same way as the song describes.

The song was cool but my mom don't tell me none of that. All I hear is shut up Austin. She tells me me to take out the trash though.

Well... The Mom Song was kind of funny. It was funny because my mom says the exact same thing to me every day. The Teenager’s version was hilarious because I am like that and it’s funny how she came up with all that stuff in that song.

Anita Renfroe was very creative in putting in putting all of the phrases a mom may say in one song. She condenses the all into a song of about three minutes. I found this to be pretty funny. The teen version was also creative and funny.

The mom song is really funny. It sounds just like something my mom would say. I think the teenager’s version was better. It is something a girl teenager would say. Something I say all the time. I can’t wait to show my mom both of them.

I really like the mom song. My grandma tells me the same exact things everyday. The mom song is just like what every mom goes through everyday. Every mom tells there kid that same exact stuff everyday.

I think that it is a natural thing to follow the first and the last video. I think this because parents are just trying to protect their kids. I also think that it is natural to follow the third video because parents pressure their kids too much, and lower their freedom.

I think she was pretty funny. I do not think she understands that we don't see things from her point of view. We all have different opinions

Leon said...

That is a natural thing to have between a parent and a child. I think parents do get on children's nerves. So I do think its a natural thing for that problem between a child and a parent.

daniel fuchs said...

I really liked that song. It is very funny. Moms always sa the same thangs.

Jerry said...

The mom song was sort of funny. The kid's song was hilarious because it's the truth. I like to have a kid's perspective.

Matthew Mims said...

It makes perfect sense because moms always are helping us kids. Also the other opinion was right because thats how we react to our moms. So i think both videos were perfect

quinica said...

Well, I think it's a very funny song. It's explaining how moms are when they talk to us. The teen one is nice to. I see Though it's a nice song to explain what they go through.

rj said...

The mom song is really funny.The teen version tell the truth about us teens. This is the truth about the teens and moms.

Will said...

I believe that both of these songs are interesting, humorous insights on the perspectives of a mother and teenage daughter. I have heard my mom say many of the things that were in the mom song. I have also said a few things from the teenage response.

Austin said...

I thought this video was very funny. Most of it was true about how moms nag at you to do stuff. Some of this stuff wasn’t either.

cass said...

I think the video was kind of funny. Although my mom doesn’t say a lot of those things that the lady said. But the part about parents nagging you to do stuff is true.

Jessica said...

The Mom song I think over exaggerates things that parents have to do. But, it is true a mom’s job never ends and they do a lot of stuff for us. Sometimes kids don’t remember what they do and they are rude or they forget to appreciate them and say thank you. But, they know we love them. It is just sometimes teens want their own dang space.

Travis said...

The mom is really funny. She is really funny and it is true. But the song is really funny and i like the song.

The mom song was funny. It sounds like something my mom would say. But the teenager's version was better.

Raheim said...

Both of the songs are really funny. But my mom doesn’t say any of that. But she does say take the trash out though. The teenager song was the funniest. It relates to what my older sister would say. Overall, both of the songs were great.

Unknown said...

The songs really weren't that funny! The girls song was better than the mom's. Neither of the songs were funny really though!

Nicholas Miles said...

The moms song is the way parents want us to live. We don't want to live like that. We want to live like the teenager.

Makayla said...

The Mom's Song was very true. It told everything that we as teen's are usually told repeatedly day after day. The younger girl was just the Mom Song from a different perspective.

keionliggins6 said...

I have heard my mom say many of the things that were in the mom song. I like the second one better. They both interested me.

chris bullis said...

I think the mom song is very funny and entertaining, it made me laugh. I liked the teen version a lot better because it was slower. Other than that both videos were very good.

Audrey said...

I havent heard it up untill today. I think it was funny. I liked it.

Jake The Snake said...

The mom song was really different. It was pretty weird. I think it could of been better. I wouldn't want my mom to do that.

Chris Stepp said...

I just got done watching the "Mom Song". I will admit, it was creative and thoughtful. I wouldn't recommend it to my friends.

Lekedria said...

I hear my mom say half of that stuff in the mom song almost evreyday. The teen one was something that us teens would say. The videos were funny!

liz said...

I just watched the mom song and the teen's perspective. Both are very entertaining. I can relate to both of them.

justin said...

The mom song is kinda funny but true. The childrens point of view video was good and as well was true. I think these videos were good and point out good points.

Unknown said...

I think that both videos are a great example of how mothers and teenagers feel and act in todays society. In every parent-child relationship there will be some tension and exchange of words like the video stated. I agree that a mothers job never ends, but a teenagers job is much more stressful and complicated than when our parents were our age. Things have changed and I think that parents need to understand that and I also think that teens need to realize that they aren't use to our new ways of life.

Unknown said...

I thought that it was okay. I've never heard anything like that before. The songs were sung too fast to understand.

Novas said...

After watching this video i think it is kinda funny. It has some pretty good points about what a mom goes through. The teen version is also very true.

alisareale said...

The mom song was very true. Those are the typical things that a mother will say, almost everyday. This tells half of what moms go threw each day with their children. Also the teenager made a good point in her response to the mom song. That was very interesting.

benito said...

I don't like the song. I think It was a little dumb. The teen girl could not sing very good. The mom song was alright.

Madi McFarland said...

I liked the song that the mom sang, it was really funny. My mom says some of the same stuff to me almost everyday. I really didn't like the teen one, even though that is how i feel most of the time. I didn't really like that girl in the teen song, she was really annoying.

Unknown said...

I think "The Mom Song" is great. Its exactly what every mom would say. I think that everything she says everyone has heard. She is very funny and I've heard so many of the things she has said from my own mom. This is a good song and it made me laugh:).

The moms’ song was quite true, I know how my brothers and I are and I know we can drive our mother crazy. The following video was an appropriate response, children do get frustrated with the constant nagging and questions and pestering from parents. However, as both videos stated, kids and parents do all this because they love one another, a truer bond can never be forged.

mark said...

These two videos are great examples of a mother and daughter relationship. I can relate to both of the videos because my mother is always on my case. The videos were very creative as well.

Holly said...

Yes, I watched that video it was funny because my mom says most of that stuff to me. It was natural for the kids to follow the first video because it shows how the kids feel about their mom. These videos make a lot of sense becasue I know I get frustrated when my mom is always in my business.

Unknown said...

The mom song was ok. It wasn't funny. But it did flow.

Unknown said...

The mom song was a little too much. The stuff she was saying sounds like the traits of a perfect parent. My mother does not nag on me constantly to do stuff like that. The woman sounded like an over controlling mother. It kind of got on my nerves.
