Found this on the web and thought I'd share it with you. Does this reflect yoiur own experience and observation?
1.
A normal mom will let you eat frozen foods on occasion.
A Polish mom will spend time cooking naleśniki, gołąbki, bigosz, fasolówkę and biały barszcz or żurek.

2.
A normal mom will compliment you on your outfit.
A Polish mom will tell you everything that is wrong with it, and only when you change or cover up the offending item, will she say, "A tak dobrze wyglądasz."

I would say many of these points are true of mothers the world over! Would disagree with points 7 and 9. Polish mothers don't seem to be big on fresh air, except for Spring and Summer. As for the doctor, if anything modern Polish mothers are vastly over-protective and hypochondriac, bringing the child to the doctor for every cough and sneeze and demanding anti-biotics. Many of the the other points sound very much like my husband's Polish grandmother.

Exactly what I was going to say, although to add to point 7, if you do get dragged outside, make sure you are fully wrapped up and with a scarf...28C will get you a cold!
