UK: Marge Simpson has been voted a top role model for mothers, beating Britain’s First Lady Cherie Blair and celebrity Victoria Beckham. Sky News reports that the star of the Simpsons TV cartoon series was chosen by young people as a good example of motherhood. Over 400 people were questioned in the Mothers’ Union poll, an Anglican charity dedicated to promoting marriage and family life. Marge reportedly claimed 23 percent of the vote. The poll found that youngsters especially admired her down-to-earth approach and advice, such as telling her three children to “listen to your heart, and not the voices in your head”, said the report.
