Is it alright for mother's to be best friends with there daughters?

When I first met my stepmom she tryed everything to get me to like her she tryed by acting llike me.
Talking like me and dressing like me.It annored the heck out of me and I talked to her about it.Now she is herself.
I think however that a mother should be close to her daughter but not her best friend.
She should be her mother and nothering else.What do you think?JM 🙂 💃

I think mothers or step mothers should monitor the number of inane threads their children are posting

God help her. I hope she doesn't work outside of the home.

There is nothing wrong with a close relationship between mother and daughter. I have some female friends who tell their mothers everything. These are usually the female friends who's mothers are the most cool and down to earth. If you have an understanding relationship with your mother, then she'll likely have one with you. It'll make life a lot easier.

both should do what they feel is best, there is no golden rule for this

My oldest daughter is my best friend and she considers me her best friend. I don't dress or act like her. Older women who do that have self esteem issues I believe. I was never close to my own mother growing up, and still cant stand the woman today. I am most thankful that both my daughters are very close to me.

and please use the damned spell check for just once in your life it's ANNOYED not annored!!

much like the way you annoy the hell out of me

classic JP, simply classic!!!

Funny, she used to spell "ignored" "annored". Holy shit, she's even more confused than I thought. Seriously, how the **** do you get "annoyed" and "annored" mixed up? They don't even sound the same...

Ha, three out of the five people to have posted in here are on JM's "annore" list.

It's fine, and as we have seen, dressing like your daughter isn't the same as being her best friend.

How does JM feel about a father dressing like his daughter? Is that O.K.?

My opinion is that a kid can have a hundred friends but only one set of parents (o.k. maybe two if there's a divorce). If you are trying too hard to make sure that your kid likes you, you probably aren't doing your job as a parent.

Oh yeah, on more thing, JM, www.dictionary.com not only tells you what a word means, it also gives you keen tips on how to spell it.

Will you guys for once stop giving me a hard time and answear the stupid question?JM Thank you!

That was more or less what I was going to say, and basically ask any of you to tell me how many topics JM has made in the past HOUR today already?

I wouldn't be bothered, and I'd hope it didn't bother them if my wife and daughter were friends/best friends. I think some people need to get out of the "anti-parents" thing that most teenagers go through since it's completely outdated and ridiculous and childish.

I am not againt child relionships I just think that the child should have a mother not a best friend.That is all now calm down a nd take a deep breath and relax.

it was to be annoyed? i thought it's some word i don't know 😬

i see no point for them not to be best friends.
it is kinda annoying though when my mum wears shorter skirts tham me.. but on the other hand i like it more this way 😊

Child relationships? You mean like Michael Jackson?

BTW, seems you're the only one worked up here, dearie.

There is nothing wrong with a mother and daughter having a close relationship. Everyone needs friends their own age, but having an older friend to look up to and ask advice from is nothing to frown upon.

Your step-mother, although she is going about it the complete wrong way, is taking the first step in trying to strengthen your relationship with her. She is trying to be somebody you can relate to.

Jaxx... (May I call you Jaxx?) she is just reaching out to you. Whether or not you reach back is your call. Would you like to have a mentor/friend? I see no harm in it.

No, I think she's referring to MANBLA.

corn

It's NAMBLA by the way, unless they changed the name on South Park on purpose.

"Child Relationships"? That sounds like pedofile talk to me. I think you need to change your english to something of the sort of "A child having a SOCIAL RELATIONSHIP with her mother" or something along those lines to avoid what sounds like your encouraging pedofileism.

it is really interesting how everyone minds their language while talking to JM 😑

I actually don't, I just find other words like pedofile to explain why, what JM says is completely f*cked.

😆

Hey you are on my list Jo so I have no idea what you just said.JM
