How to Help Your Mom

When it comes to helping others, we may have good intentions, but miss the mark. This inspired me to write and draw this “How to help your mom” cartoon.

How to help your Mom cartoon: a teen boy says, From now on, I’m going to help you around here, mom. Do you want me to help you learn how to shoot hoops?

We may get helpful advice such as, “Use your skills to help others.” But what if our skills aren’t really what the other person needs? Does this boy’s mom really want to know how to shoot hoops? Perhaps. But could a little help with the laundry be what she really needs?
