    before I moved, I spent most of the past three years living with her. She's a really sweet, kind woman. Even though she most likely hated a lot of things I did she'd be supportive and try to work things out for us. ...she's also why I'm such a hippie.

    I have zero patience for my mother. I should, she is older, yet she seems soooo much younger now. I appreciate the things she goes out of her way to do for me, but I want her to do nothing for me at all.

    I love her and get along with her really well...a lot better than I was getting on with her before I moved out. My brother was growing up and I was almost done (well, with the physical part anyway, don't think I'll be "grown" up until I'm like 30 or older, lol), and we just started noticing a lot of things about our mom's attitude and demeanor and realized that she could be insanely immature and childish. It was terribly frustrating and she'd throw a tantrum and lock herself in her bedroom if you disagreed with anything she said. It was frustrating. But from what everyone tells me, moms can get really fucking weird when they know you're about to leave the nest. We get along pretty awesomely now.

    me and my mom are very different people and i doubt that we would get along at all if we weren't related. but for 18 years (and then some, really) she put my own well being above her own. we may not agree about what is right all the time, but she works harder than anyone i've met to do what she thinks is right. she is really the most amazing person i know.

    We're not close.
    I'm not sure she even likes me.
    She wanted me to be the perfect child growing up, and I used to think we were friends, but then when she divorced my stepdad she treated me like a burden.
    She also tried to drown me once in a toilet when I was 9.

    My mom is freaking awesome. She is super smart, succesful, bought a home on her own in San Diego no less, encourages me, always put me first, apologizes for her mistakes, has the BEST CLOTHES in the universe. I mean the woman has almost all of anthropologie in her freaking closet. She is fickle about clothes so I came back with a huge leather coach tote and a coach document organizer purse thing last month.

    And she listens to my problems with my husband and takes his side, which I like because it reinforces that I married a really good man.

    She made a lot of mistakes being a parent. If CPS knew they would have taken me out of the home, but I have no doubt she did her best and I admire that she is able to apologize for it today. She feels really guilty.

    i don't really know her.. she was on too many drugs and "let" my aunt adopt me .. (aka legally kidnap me) when i was a baby.

    i didn't re-meet until i was 20, the day i had my son. we don't keep in touch all that well either. i guess i could mail her a letter.. but what do i say? " hi, things have gone to shit since the last letter. love, me" :( ... now i'm sad.

    my mom's a drunk. just drinks and watches TV when she doesn't work.
    I think this society is an epic failure. I don't know how long people will be able to stand doing such monotonous and unhealthy things like this.

    I love her.
    I'm ready to move out, though, lol.
    It's becoming one of those things where it's like, "how can I miss you if you won't go away?" :)
    She's a very clingy, needy person- always asking us if she looks old and crap... and if we say "I love you" she says, "Really?" Uck. It's gross. I know this may sound heartless, but 21 years of it...

    My mom has let me be whoever I wanted to be growing up. Which was great. But shes a little too much controlling. She is best with toddlers, because they need a mom around all the time.
