Most of us think of our mom as JUST a mom.  But how much do you know about her life before she had you?  And do you even WANT to know?

89% of people in a new survey said they think they know “a great deal” about their mom’s life.  Here are the top five mom facts we’re familiar with . . .

1.  Where she grew up.  74% of people know the answer to that one.
2. Where she went to high school or college, 60%.
3. The name of the street she grew up on, 50%.
4. What her first job was, 49%.
5. Her ancestry, 48%.

The poll also asked people to name the top TRAITS they got from their mom. The top five answers were:

1. Her compassion  
2. Her sensitivity
3. Her work ethic
4. Her sense of humor
5. Her good looks.
