Is my mom normal

80% Normal
21 Comments

My Father owns a very successful chain of car dealerships so my Mom is able to dedicate herself full time to being a home maker.
Our house is in pristine condition, and we get a cooked breakfast every morning and healthy packed lunches.

She often has friends over for afternoon tea and she even makes her own invitations for them and Bakes fresh cakes and cookies and stuff.

Holidays like Christmas and Halloween ect. are always a big production and very memorable.

It takes about 1 hour on public transport for me to get to college so I have to get up early, Mom is nice enough to wake me up early with a double fly kick to the head so I don't miss my train.

We even have a book shelf with Mom's scrapbooks that she makes after our vacations and stuff.

So is she normal? My friends think she's old fashioned.

    I guess everyone else missed the "double fly kick to the head" part.

      I didn't. The kid needs to get out from his mother's smother.

    The real question is how involved is your Dad with the family. A mother like that will make you such a lazy ass, that you will never develop as a person. Maybe you can get a job at the Car Dealership, and make your quota or get your ass kicked.

    She sounds adorable
    as an at home mom I do a lot of things for my daughter...I pack her healthy lunches except for Thursday which is pizza day at school. I make her breakfast and do her hair all pretty. I knit her scarves and other things...I made her tutu dresses to play dress up in.

    Sometimes I plan fun days ...like I took a box spray painted it like a treasure chest filled it with goodies...I made my daughter a pirate hat spyglass. ..and a map of our yard. We went treasure hunting that day.

    I enjoy doing all these things.

      Well of course you do these things when your child is below the age of 10. Almost every mother tries to do these things when their children are young.

      But when they are teens or 20's, like the poll creater, you need to back off and let them learn to be independent. A good parent teaches their children to be independent! Just back off in their teens, and especially in their 20's.

      And don't be one of those older moms that post pictures on Facebook of their family together every week when their kids are in their 20's. They are doing this to prove they are "good" mothers. This is the time they need to back off and let their children live and grow.

        His mom still makes him lunch I'd do the same if my kid wanted lunch made.
        holidays would still be big...id still knit and crochet things.
        when I was in high school I hated the sound of alarms my mom woke me up...now with fancy phones where I dont have to have that awful beeping sound I wake myself up.

        I dont think anything he listed is really detrimental to being independent. If he still lives with his parents his mom most likely will still make some meals. She might still wake him up.

        Moms generally love their family whats wrong with pictures? Oh no ur kids 20 so no more pictures?
        Also I dont have a facebook :P

          @reminiscent
          He is in college, not high school. His mother needs to let him go, and let him make his own lunch, dinner, breakfast, do his laundry, clean, make his own friends.....
          Many "Martha Stewart " mothers or "helicopter" mothers guage their importance and build their egos on how "perfect" they are as mothers. This kills them, and makes their children weird.

          Of course mothers love their kids. But when they use them as an advertisement to show what a good mother they are on facebook, they are doing it for themselves not for the love of their kids.

            If she generally makes meals and tgey live together it would be silly to make two separate meals unless they both want something different.

            I can agree some moms are like that... but I dont think posting ragular pics means ur like that.

    Maybe she's a little old fashioned, but sounds like a posh life. I'm not mad at her, but I do have a question. If your folks can afford for your mom to have an old fashioned life of leisure why haven't they bought or for that matter given you a car to drive to school instead of having to take a train?

    I dunno, it's none of my business. Perhaps you've got a car, but don't care for driving so long. I guess I've always preferred to drive myself places as I feel more in control. I'm originally from Houston, Texas and I drove everywhere I went because everything was so spread out. After I learned to drive and got a car my dad made me learn how to change a flat tire and do basic automobile maintenance like check fluids and such.

    I hope your mother appreciates and is grateful for what she's got. My mom was quite similar, but I wouldn't say her life was all roses and tea parties. She did all the housework, cooking, cleaning and shopping. My mom even mowed the lawn sometimes. She also picked up my sister and I after extra-curricular activities at school and drove us to ballet, karate, catechism, church choir practice and Sunday Mass of course. My dad worked two jobs and was also in the Army Reserves. I would have to say they both worked their asses off, but I know they love each other as well as my sister and I very much.

    Thanks for your post, it reminded me to be grateful for what I've got.

      She's got a chubby pussy, so you can only see pink if you pull the Meat Curtains back.

    How old are you? I would be concerned that she is teaching you to be dependent instead of independent. A good mother lets the baby bird fly out of the nest, even if the baby falls.

    She is boosting her own ego in trying to prove (to who?) she is a "perfect" mother. It really has less to do with how much she loves you, and more that she wants to prove herself as the "best mother". She needs to be real for her own mental health.

    This was the problem with the 1950"s, when women wore dresses and high heels to clean the house, and baked cakes all the time. It was superficial and not helpful to the children.
