It’s Mother’s Day tomorrow. How’s your relationship with your mothers currently?

[Pinay_ako]

Mine has always been good. My mom is my best friend. I’m thankful always for that. How about you?

[Lynx122]

It's great, she loves me so much and that contributed a lot to me being a stable and kind person. My dad is indifferent and I don't think he even understands the concept of being a father or a husband so I don't want him in my life. If I didn't have my mom it would have damaged me a lot. But now I don't think my fathers lack of interest and participation in raising me has had that big of an impact on me as a person because I was able to try and compensate a bit and try and get what I needed from other places. I'm very grateful anyway and she's very happy about me being in her life as well she loved me from the start but my father and my sister were both complete assholes to her so that makes our relationship even more important to both of us.

My mom is awesome. She taught me how to cook and she taught me about carpentry.

[Pinay_ako]

Nice! What’s your fave recipe that she taught you? Carpentry too? Wow awesome

[BoopBoopBeep]

Probably chicken parmesan... I've adapted it a little to "make it mine"... our favorite that we make together is pepperoni rolls, but since my heart attack that's off the menu while I learn to make pepperoni with lower fat and salt.

She built all the furniture in my good-sized house (well a lot of it we made together, but ALL of it had her hands on it) It's all luxury wood like premium cherry built-ins with tigerwood trim throughout the reading room. Cost me less than garbage furniture from Target would have cost because she gets the wood SUPER cheap from a supplier that likes her. I had a contractor offer me 15k for the coffee table she made. I politely declined.

[Pinay_ako]

Your mom’s so cool

[BoopBoopBeep]

She was about four hours form flying back one time. I used to smoke, so I went out and grabbed a smoke. I came in and she'd ripped out my staircase. "This was ugly, we'll make it better." Hahah I'm like "mom... you leave soon" She just looked at the time and was like "well then get moving boy!"

[Babygirl_S]

I tell my mum nearly everything and we are really close. She is enraged nowadays due to my celebrity obsession. She can't stop calling him "the ugliest man ever" and telling me "I can find you a better looking guy". She keeps telling me his flaws and I disagree.

[Katrina79]

Unfortunately I don’t she passed in 23 years ago.

[Pinay_ako]

How was your relationship when she was still alive?

[Katrina79]

It got stronger as I got older.

[Katrina79]

Thank You for MHO

[UnknownSwede]

I got a very good relationship with my mom. Since I'm single right now, she's definitely the most important woman in my life.

And as a joke with mother's.

[Pinay_ako]

🤣 😂 ha ha

[Legendarylegacy13]

So you still stay with your mother. Is she married? lol

[UnknownSwede]

No, I'm not living with my mom.

[Legendarylegacy13]

So I guess you are not married and home is still home... lol

[UnknownSwede]

I said I'm single in my initial post reply, so that would mean I'm not married, yes.

[Legendarylegacy13]

Understandable...

[NathanDavis]

we celebrate them on May 10...

we get along very well... and I see my parents often enough, as they live at a town that's just a couple hours away

[Pinay_ako]

Lucky 🍀

[NathanDavis]

every day is a bless 🌸

[Leapfrog00]

I haven't seen my mother in a long time. She doesn't care about me. My parents were abusive, so maybe it's better she doesn't care about me.

M relationship with my tv mother is good though! Mrs. Brady, lol

[Legendarylegacy13]

If Mrs. Brady was my mother. I would want to f*** my mom... lol

[Andres77]

She was my best friend too. She’s still alive but her brain has checked out. It’s hard watching her, having been so strong.

[Pinay_ako]

So hard to watch parents suffer… 😔

[Mimi_758]

Not good my Mother is a sick person i have not talked to her in almost 8 years and she has not taken the time to check on me so you can say out relationship is terrible🥺

[PBandJ_Nerd]

It's going good. I got my mom a card and cheesecake for tomorrow. We already planned dinner for tomorrow as well.

[PointTaken]

Mine has been good. I barely talk to her. Lol. I need to talk to her more.

[Pinay_ako]

You should while you still can

[PointTaken]

I know. Time zone difference as well as work/sleep schedule.

[LazerBean]

Our relationship is great. My mom and my mom by marriage are great blessings in my life.

[SnowedIn]

My mom passed 20 years ago. But it was not a great relationship to begin with. 😥

[CB-Raido-Time]

My Mom was my Mom and best friend. She's been gone 11 years now.

[Pinay_ako]

😔 you had good memories with her…

[Sarahr123]

In the UK we have it in March. We don’t really do anything for it.

[ChiTown33]

Great. We actually celebrated mother's day today. One of my sister's and I took my mom to breakfast and then shopping at Costco.👍

[beebella]

My mom is not my best friend, but we get along at least half the time. 😅

[Sparkie460]

We were close when she was alive. I'm going to the cemetery tomorrow morning to visit her then spend the rest of the day with my wife who is a mother.

[Nikki1989]

Not good. I have seen her only once in the last 20 years.

[nawtee_me]

What are you doing with her? I am cooking for my mom, she wants steak so her grandsons are cooking steak for her.

[najekim]

She died awhile ago. Besides, we were never a close family.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Good. I would visit my mom but I'm just too tired right now but I will send her a text.

[spartan55]

My mother passed thirty years ago. May she rest in peace.

[FunkyMonkee]

Non-existent. She died 7 years ago.

[Pinay_ako]

How was it before she died? The relationship?

[FunkyMonkee]

Pretty good! I took good care of her (my ex-sisters stole from her and wanted to put her into a home) and she trusted me!! When she got her monthly checks, she'd give me the money to divide up into several equal piles, stick each pile into a bank envelope and have me hide the envelopes around the house so the girls couldn't find them!
If I told her I was going to the store for groceries, she'd make me take a $20 out of her purse to pay for it. Rather than argue with her about it, I'd take the 20, go to the store and pay for everything with MY money and, the next time I took her to the bathroom, I'd put her 20 back into her purse!

[Pinay_ako]

Wow you’re such a good son! I don't know how and why children can steal from their parents… just ask

[FunkyMonkee]

Thank you!
Greed! My older sister took mom's check book and made her sign her bank account over to her because mom had a stroke and couldn't write with her right hand for a while. My sister told her it was just gonna be a temporary thing until mom was able to write again. Mom got better and kept asking for her checks back but my sister refused to give them to her and then, a couple years later, told her that she never asked for them!! ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT!! I sat right there at the kitchen table a number of times when mom was on the phone with her and I HEARD her asking for her checks back MANY times!! When that bitch refused, once they hung up, mom would complain to me about not being allowed to be in control of her own money!! Then, my youngest sister got HER name on that account, too!! When mom died a few years later, I was supposed to get all her money!! Well over $37,000!! Her bank told me how much was in it!! But, when I went to get it, it was gone!! Those two greedy bitches took it all and then the bank claimed there never WAS any $37,000 in her account!!
I was SUPPOSED to get a 50% share of the house and a life estate because mom did NOT want the house sold nor me being kicked to the curb!! But, that's EXACTLY what happened because those greedy bitches had me evicted from my own house and then sold it to get MORE money they didn't deserve!!
When my aunt cashed mom's monthly checks for her, she made sure she gave mom every last penny!! when my youngest sister cashed one of those checks, she ran right to the store and blew over $100 of it on groceries for herself and NEVER asked mom if it was okay!! Mom complained about that to me, too!!
