Hi everybody! Been a while, huh? Have fun!

(cross posting on the Giraffeboards)

**Object of the game:**  
Give the most popular answer for each category, Like in the Fast Money round in Family Feud

**Rules:**

1. NO READING THE THREAD BEFORE ANSWERING. This is on the honor system.
2. Formatting rules must be followed (see below).
3. Google (etc.) is allowed, if you desire.
4. The game will end with a maximum of 50 entrants, and I will score it when I have time available.

**Formatting rules:**  
To make semi-automated scoring possible, and my job easier, make your post look exactly like this:

1. answer
2. answer
3. answer
4. answer

No double spacing, do not use the “list” function, no smilies, no urls, no periods, no quote marks, no asterisks, and no punctuation if it is not necessary. Put PASS if you want to leave an answer blank. If you want to discuss your answers, do it after the list!

**Scoring:**  
An answer with a match is worth 2 points. If 4 people match, they each get 8 points for that answer. No matches = 0 points. Anyone who responds to a question with two answers will only have the first one counted as their answer.

\*\*Read the rules! \*\*

Good luck!

1. Name a TV mom.
2. Name a movie Mom.
3. Besides cards and flowers, name something a mom might get on Mother’s Day.
4. Name a song with a form of “mother” in the title. (mom, mama, etc.)
5. Name a celebrity mom with 4 or more children.
6. Which US state has the most children under 18?
7. Which US state has the least children under 18?
8. What month is the most popular for newborns to arrive? (based on CDC records)
9. In the 21st century in the US, what is the average age for first time moms to have their babies? (based on CDC records)
10. In which decade did Mother’s Day begin? (in the US)
