Do you get along with your mom?

Me and my mom are like best friends, so I can't see not getting along with my mom. I have never even been in a fight with my mom. My siblings however always fight with her and were horrible as teens..I just wasn't rebellious.

stella6979 replied: I do love my Mom and we get a long to an extent, but she is a big drinker and I can't stand to be around her when she's drunk.

moped replied: Oh yes, my mom and I are tight!!!!!! She is the BEST!

3xsthefun replied: I wouldn't say we are best friends. But we get along pretty well. Better now then when I lived at home.

My2Beauties replied: I love my mom to death we are very close! Always have been.

coasterqueen replied: For the most part. Moreso now with kids in the picture than without. She only knows of herself and her problems and nothing else and I mean NOTHING ELSE is as important as her problems - even if you are dying and she has a little headache......her headache comes first. I do love her though, very much, always will.

Calimama replied: My mom and I are very close. We talk almost every day and I love her to death!

~Roo'sMama~ replied: We get a long ok... I think it would be better if we weren't living in the same house.

BAC'sMom replied: Yes, she is one of my best friends. We didn't get along when I was a teenager but are very close now.

Hillbilly Housewife replied: No.

HuskerMom replied: My mom and I get along pretty well but disagree on a lot of things. We constantly have to agree to disagree. I just wish she was more open minded sometimes. We are planning on having lunch on Mother's Day and I'm sure I'll get her a card at least.

Calimama replied:
That's like my mom. My mom is very old school. And I have a lesbian sister. Not the best combo.

redchief replied: My mom and I aren't the best of friends for reasons I don't talk about. But, I do love her and will get her a gift for Mother's Day.

A&A'smommy replied: Yes my mom is one of my best friends I tell her EVERYTHING (with the exception of a few things) I'm making picture colleges of the girls for our mothers they will both love it

Boo&BugsMom replied:
Same here. And my Dad.

MommyToAshley replied: I get along with my Mom but I wish we were closer.

Mommy2Isabella replied: I am very close with my mom!! Im not getting her an eleborate gift, as money is tight and she doesn't like gifts, we are having a cook out on Mother's Day for her though

Swood75 replied: NO!! My mom "tries" to be a control freak and I can't stand it..I wish she lived further away!!

MyBlueEyedBabies replied: I for the most part like my mom. Since she got sick I have kinda let her slide for all the crap from my late teens early twenties when she wasn't necessarily the nicest person in the world toward me. I do love her dearly and wish I could do more to help her. My MIL is my best friend though....maybe a little weird

luvmykids replied: My mom is one of my best friends in the world, we talk several times a day and joke about our mutual admiration society We've always been pretty close, but got even more so after the kids came along, that whole one mom to another type bond, I think.

jcc64 replied: I'm very tight with my mom--always have been (except when I was 13). As she ages, her little annoying tendencies seem to be magnifying, as I remember happening with my grandmother as well. For some reason, people get more idiosyncratic and egocentric as they age, making the relationship a little more work at times. But thankfully, I'm aging right along with her, making me a lot more forgiving about my mom's shortcomings than I was when I was younger.
When you bury a parent, you'll realize that you'd gladly endure all those things about him/her that absolutely drove you insane, just to spend another five minutes letting them know you appreciate everything they gave up for you.

youngmomofone replied: My mom and I get along as long as we dont live under the same roof.

Danalana replied: We had a very strained relationship when I was growing up...there was a lot of alcohol abuse in those days. She hasn't drank in years now, so that's wonderful. There were just a lof of problems but, as I have gotten older, I have learned some things. One of those things is that she just was never really shown love or HOW to love. She tells me she loves me and I know it's something that she resolved to do as a young woman. They were NEVER told they were loved by their parents She says they "just knew" (I don't buy it). Anyway, I have had to forgive a lot of things that happened along the way, but we made it. She had nobody but a little girl who couldn't give her what she needed. We aren't what you would call close, but I love her very much. We never talk about deep things, but again that's learned behavior for both of us. And yes, I'm getting her a gift for Mother's Day...so is Kade I tell you one thing, she adores that baby! Maybe there will be something from Kade AND Carter...I'm sure he would like to be in on it.
