I thought of, too! Did you ever hear the quote that Jimmy Carter's mother made? The venerable Miss Lillian said, "When I look at my four children sometimes I say to myself, Lillian, you should have stayed a virgin." I bet that earned a big, "Thanks for nothing, Mom."
ETA: I read more of Miss Lillian's write up in Wikipedia: "When son Billy Carter's beer business had its ribbon cutting ceremony, a friend questioned Miss Lillian on whether or not she would attend. She remarked:
"I attended Jimmy's inauguration didn't I?"
On the day of Jimmy's inauguration, Miss Lillian was asked if she was proud of her son and she asked blandly,
Which one?"
