Theodore Roosevelt's daughter Alice, who was cool as hell, referred to him as "a mamma's boy".

When Franklin moved to college, his mom got an apartment there so she'd never be far away from him.

As a wedding present, she bought a house for him and Eleanor Roosevelt. She also bought the house next door, which she lived in. She had doors created in the walls so she could get into Franklin's house.

One day nearer spring

quote:

She only wanted one child and she indulged and spoiled him to no end, making him the center of her entire world.

He lavished equal love and devotion on her, earning him the reputation of being, as Alice Roosevelt Longworth put it, “a mamma’s boy.”

When her husband died in 1900, Sara could fixate on Franklin without distraction.

Although he was already eighteen years old, she was so unable to be apart from him, she moved to Boston and took an apartment there while he was enrolled at nearby Harvard University.

The mansion which the world knew by the shorthand of “Hyde Park,” and presumed was owned by the President, she’d christened with the formal name of “Springwood.”

It was always her house and she intended to live there with Franklin. They decorated it together. She expanded the entrance hall so that there was enough room on the walls to display as many of his naval prints as he wanted.

quote:

Even under the guise of thoughtful encouragement, her bite was sharp. “If you’d just run your comb through your hair, dear,” she chided Eleanor in front of a full table of dinner guests, “you’d look so much nicer.”

this is like the scene where vampire Jessica has to "glamour" her old boyfriend to make him forget their relationship (for his own good). a powerful scene. the actress who plays Jessica (who is now on Daredevil)doesnt get enough credit, she is really good imo.

My grandma knew a girl growing up who had once had polio. She said she was super weird because her mom coddled her all the time, she described it like helicopter parenting long before that was a thing (back in the 20s) and that the girl's mom thought her kid caught polio from her not believing in God enough and thinking about leaving her belligerent drunk of a husband. Everyone knew that because she broke down once in front of the whole congregation at church and started screaming about wanting to save other children from their parents' sins or whatever in a hot Southern Baptist prayer revival thing.

She converted to Episcopalian a few years after that

FDR didn't get polio until he was almost 40
