I just think of Mean Girls-- "I'm not a regular mom, I'm a cool mom"

You talk to him about sex? Drugs? Gossip? Family secrets?
My child is not my best friend but not everyone has to have the same definition as you for what constitutes a best friend. I mean really, drugs? Not everyone is a gossip...

I Feel bad for adult women who consider their mom their best friend, I mean, that’s just sad. I’m sure your mom is terrific, but you should have a same age friend who can relate as a peer. Your mom is never going to be your peer. And she needs a BFF who is her same age and life stage too!
For example. Lorelei has Sookie, Rory has Lane. But Gilmore girls is 1. Make believe and 2. A teen pregnancy and special situation. Your typical arlington mom should not be referring to her mom as her best friend.

No need to think too deeply about someone’s casual statement.
My thoughts exactly! No need to complicate and analyze everything.

My dh deployed for 6 months when my oldest was 2.5. I spent every waking minute with her for 6 months and we coslept. I SAH and moved to another city to be near my parents for help during the short time. It was weird. We had a 1br apt. I did don’t go crazy. I loved it. It was a really special time. I don’t think I ever called her my best friend, but she was!

Yep.
But I don’t get hung up semantics.

A child is not an equal and parenthood is the most lopsided relationship you’ll have in your life, where you should be giving without expectation of your child doing anything for you.
This. All of it.

This thread is so validating, glad I'm not the only one who judges the shit out of those people.

I would not say it about my toddler.
But I love in the movie I Love You, Man when the Dad says his grown son is his best friend. That’s great, I think.
