导语：周日是母亲节，为什么人们会选择在5月庆祝母亲节，我给出了自己的猜想。除此之外，我们还会了解一些与父母有关的有趣俚语。

Mother’s Day is coming, people celebrate it on the second Sunday in May. When I was little, I always wondered why it is in May, not in other months.

I still don’t know about the reason, but I know the month ‘May’ is named for the Roman goddess Maia, she is responsible for overseeing the growth of plants. Children are often compared to ‘flowers’, the duties of a mother are similar to Maia’s that is to take care of the ‘flowers’.

Next, I am going to talk about slang words relating to parents(mother or father).

mom jeans(老妈裤): high-waisted, unfashionable jeans commonly worn by middle-aged mothers.

soccer mom: a suburban mom who spends lots of time with children, taking them to sports courses or music lessons.

T-Jones: refers to mother.

pops: it is another word for dad, they are the same thing.
补充：soft drink, soda, pop 的区别

sugar daddy(钟情年轻女性的阔佬): an older man who is dating a young female, and gives her a lot of gifts, like a father might give to his daughter.
