    Any female paradigm can step in the role as a mother if she is attentive and consistent!

    Lucky for me at least "close to it!" My partner has been kind enough to allow me to share in the raising of her son for the past 6+ years. He was 12 the first time I met him and he and I had the best conversation about my moving here. I had visited them for about 2 weeks at that point and had to go home for a few months to get my life closed out in CA. I wouldn't be moving back for about 6 months. He asked me, before I left..."you promise you really will come back, you really want to be with us?" Oh I cried over that.

    Now, at 19, he says he's glad I came back and the other week we shared a big long hug because his first girlfriend dumped him for another guy.

    I don't think for a moment that I love him MORE than his birth Mother...she's been through so much with him, and to provide for him for so many years with little or no help, or help given rather grudgingly while she worked third shift to earn more...she loves him more than life I would bet. But he is the child of my heart.

    Well - a person's wife might be a m other and love him more than his mother does.

    But how do you measure love? I don't think you can. There are too many variable.

    I would not rate one person's love above another. people are different and have different capactities for and expressions of love.

    The gretaest love is to lay down ones life for another.

    Yes, why not. My daughter has three mothers, me first, her BF's mom second, and her bus driver, Camil, who replaces both of us when we are mad at her.

    I don't believe that as some people can demonstrate love more effectively by virtue of their better communication skills. They may be focusing on their relationship with you as to how best you can like them. Only your mother will focus on what is good for you instead of what you think about her or the relationship.

    Definitely! One of my friends mothers is like a second mother to me, and if my mother was a less caring person, i think my friends mom would love me more.

    Yes I think it is , I do not believe all this "blood is thicker than water". My Mother is great and loves us all but she favours my Brother and one of my sisters( she would deny this strongly)
    My Aunt was actually more like a Mother to me when I was on holiday from school, and I would have no difficulty loving a child for itself not its bloodline

    If you base things on Debbie Mathers, the woman at the checkout at the store could have more love for Marshall than she did.
