Thanks Mom, But...

By David J. Greene

Remember when adults seemed to have advice for everything? Sleep on it. Cross that bridge when you come to it. Think before you speak. Growing up, these sayings felt like universal truths. Then adulthood arrived with smartphones, subscriptions, social media, online forms, and the realization that some childhood wisdom works perfectly while other advice may need a software update. Through minimalist doodles and modern twists, Thanks Mom, But... takes the phrases we all heard growing up and asks one simple question: does old advice survive modern life?

Packed with nostalgic humor, visual gags, and playful takes on timeless sayings, this book is for anyone who has ever caught themselves repeating their parents' advice right before ignoring it completely. Whether you grew up hearing these phrases from your mom, dad, grandparents, or every adult within earshot, these doodles prove that wisdom ages in strange ways. Some advice stood the test of time. Some did not. And some just accidentally became hilarious.
