I am my mother’s son.
Twenty-three years ago, a young woman whispered to me saying, “I love you, I will always protect you, I will always be here for you”. Of course I did not understand it that time, nor do I remember the young woman saying that to me. But that’s what my mother is telling me now, that she indeed said those words to me. And I believe her…sometimes.
Yes, my mother loves me so much, but sometimes, I cannot discount the fact that she sometimes also wishes that she would put me back inside her tummy. Just like a lot of mothers, they get mad at their child to teach him a lesson. It may be difficult to understand but if one tries to understand deeper, a mother only wants the best for her child.
My mother and I have our own love-hate episodes. There were even moments when I wished I had a different mother. I couldn’t understand why she would not allow me to do some things, to go out sometimes, to buy things. But, actually, those were just to teach me a thing or two. Quite not very easy to understand as a child, but now I truly understand.
Had my mother gave all my wants as a child, I know I would be a different person now. I would have different views of life, views of rights and wrongs, and I will never change how I am today. For who I am, I will forever be grateful for my mother.
It is a common, simple, yet understandable story. Answer me, is this hastily done? a rushed work? It easy to find out because of its shortness. Also, the lightness of your work will push others to boredom. Anyway, the choice of words are very commendable because it can be understood by a normal teenager. You have problems in your sentence constructions. Just like this one, “Had my mother gave all my wants as a child, I know I would be a different person now.” You can improve this kind of sentence next time.
Still, good job!

This is a very short article. You should have made it longer and also made a twist to your article. There are sentences that you could improve. Like what Alfrick has stated.
Regarding your story, we know that mothers know best! I they get mad at you, always remember that she only cares for you because she loves you. A lot of times she will hurt you physically for you to learn, for you it hurts, but for her, it hurts even more.
Nice article. Congratulations! Your grade is 88.
I agree with Alfrick. This is too short, Maybe you’ve ran out of time to finish this the way you want it to be. You could change this part “I will never change how I am today” to i will never change who am I today. But still i got your whole point.

your article is short but concise. i think you have a lot of things to say about your mother but because of time constraints, you ended up with a short one. however, you still managed to put in all the things you know about your mother.

Here are some points:
It’s okay to have a short article as long as it is meaty. For yours, I think it lacked a lot of ingredients that would touch a person’s human interest.
You should have told us more concrete examples of what your mom doesn’t want you to do, the times she scolded you, and other experiences you had with her. It was good that you have little errors that need not be pointed out. I think the only thing that I can suggest to you is to try to think of the best angle to tackle your story. Think of something that would catch a person’s attention when s/he reads your article.

Yah yah, this article is too short. Maybe you could narrate about a certain scenario wherein you and your mother had fights, because it’s surprising that you’re a guy but she wouldn’t allow you to go out sometimes, I guess that would be interesting:) Well anyways, you’re improving, but there are still grammatical errors. Your lead and conclusion doesn’t have that kind of “impact” to the readers.

Nice pics. (89)
“And I believe her…sometimes.”
sometimes??? this must be heartbreaking to hear by a mother. 😦
a very short article, you should have added a twist on it to make it more interesting
“put me back inside her tummy”, its in her womb not her tummy 🙂
“Quite not very easy to understand as a child, but now I truly understand”, try not to overuse one word in a single sentence.
on the other hand, Mothers knows best.
Grade: 89
Yeah my mother too don’t allow me to go out sometimes.most especially when hanging out with my friends late at night.
about the content of the article:
-The title is very simple it’s not that kind of interesting,it could be better if you choose a catchy one.
-The choice of words like “tummy” which must be “womb”.
-You have problems in your sentence construction.
-In general, your article is too short, put some crisp on it even though it’s not that lengthy.
it’s better to have short piece if the content punch the interest of your readers.
grade 90.
I love your love-hate relationship with your mom. It teaches readers that the world is not perfect and happy families also experience trials specially when their children grows. Great angle 😉 (91)
ang kyut ng article mo parang ikaw,. ikaw na talga. ganyan naman talga minsan hind nakakaintindihan.. 89
I found this short and somehow general and vague. It’s much better if you incorporate more details to sustain that emotion you want to establish from your article. Learn to pun words to make it more interesting to read.
Your grade is 89.
your awesome writing style and beautiful angle was wasted because your article was too brief. Maybe you could have focused your article more about how you wish that you have a different mother. That is a very cool angle.
