There are two types of moms: The ones who beg you not to utter a single swear word, and the ones who curse up a storm on the daily. (Yes, we know there are way more than two types of moms in the universe, but for the purposes of this gift guide, we're gonna stick with these.) If yours falls into the latter category, tell us if this sounds familiar: Every one of your cherished childhood moments was punctuated with a well-timed F-bomb.
Not that we can blame Mom for swearing. From dealing with picky eaters to last-minute bake sales, life as a mother can sometimes be, well, a total sh*t show. That’s all the more reason to give credit where credit is due. And besides, a 2015 study found that people who use “taboo” words actually have larger vocabularies—as if your mom needed more proof that she knows her sh*t.
If you’re looking for the perfect gift to show Mom your appreciation, we have plenty of suggestions that are sure to make her cackle with glee. For the badass mom who’s taught you everything you know—including how to swear like a sailor—here are the 25 best gifts that celebrate the hell out of that potty mouth and spoil your mother like the absolute f*cking queen she is.
