Three Mothers

Three mothers were sitting around comparing notes on their exemplary offspring. "There never was a daughter more devoted than my Judy," said Mrs. Levine with a sniff. "Every summer she takes me to the
Catskills for a week, and every winter we spend a week at Delray Beach."

"That's nothing compared to what my Lois does for me," declared Mrs. Stein proudly. "Every winter she treats me to two weeks in Miami, and in the summer two weeks in the Hamptons, in my own private guest house."

Mrs. Lipkin sat back with a proud smile. "Nobody loves her mother like my Patty does, nobody." 

"So what does she do?" asked the two women, turning to her.

"Three times a week she gets into a cab, goes to the best psychiatrist in the city, and pays him a hundred and fifty dollars an hour - just to talk about me!"
