[quote=Anonymous]I am a step mother and she wants to call me mom, so we let her call me mom. She is 12. She is very close to her bio mom, and so am I. We have open lines of communication with the mom and we all even do all holidays together. It's all about putting the kids needs first, not the adults. I see all these posts, but really it's about what the kid wants to be called or what they want to call you. I have never once expected or wanted to be called mom, she did that on her own, after telling her own mom that she really just wanted to call me mom too, because she has two moms. Her mom is wonderful but travels a lot for work, so I end up doing a lot of the heavy lifting. She also gave up full custody, so she only has her every other weekend. [/quote]
