We are sure our Mams would do a lot of things for us, but we think she would draw the line at sitting an exam instead of us!
A French mother has been arrested after she was caught posing for her daughter in an English exam in a school in Paris.
The 52-year-old turned up in low cut jeans and Converse boots and wore very heavy make-up in order to pass herself off as daughter Laetitia, according to the Metro.
An invigilator caught the woman out about two hours into the exam and called the police.

The woman, named Caroline D., admitted to the crime and stated that she just wanted her daughter to get a good result.
‘A confrontation during the exam could have disturbed the other candidates and turned into a reason to cancel the test for everyone,’ said a spokesman for Bossuet Notre-Dame school in Paris.
If she had passed the exam, this would have ensured she would be able to attend college.
We have to admit, that is pretty dedicated! How many Moms sat the Leaving Cert?
