[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 602708, member: 1550"] Jumper has never said that any other mom was like a second mom to her. Not even on the social network or before she knew it bothered me, which was yesterday (we are very honest with one another). She doesn't even consider her birthmother her other mother, but she hasn't met her yet. Again, that wouldn't bother me. I do think it's a tribute to Jumper that so many moms adore her and feel close to her. But it bugs me when they say it. Mom who wanted Jumper to go to Mexico with her family said that she may as well come because it's a family vacation and Jumper feels like she is part of the family. Um, no. Jumper does not feel like she is part of their family. And if they think she is like family, they can pay for her, like they are the rest of the family...lol. I really never did like when certain families would start inviting my kids to family only events and I usually said they couldn't go. In my heart of hearts, I don't really think Jumper herself feels like those families are HER families. I've also felt like certain kids were kids of mine, but they were largely kids who had little parenting and I had to do everything for, even cheer for them at ballgames. We are very involved in our children's lives. Nobody drives them around except us (well, until Jumper got her license...hehe) :) [/QUOTE]
