I've got a poll about whether the stereotype of the Jewish mother is actually more true about Jewish mothers than about mothers in general.

Since I get most of my comments at livejournal and I just want to keep track of one place, I just have a link here.

I'm wondering whether I've got the basic factor (uses guilt as a major motivator) quite right. It's plausible that the real distinguishing trait is "uses guilt about hurting her feelings" is more exact.

If so, is it worth redoing the poll?

Minor note: Garrison Keillor's excruciating family skits has a mother who's presumably Scandinavian background/Lutheran who does the same thing.
