Hello, frustrated daughters! Relating to your “older, wiser” mother can be a bit of a drag. She always wants to know the who, what, when, and where of your VIP (very intimate and private) life. She’s incessantly investigating. And she’s always got an opinion.
If you want to get closer to Mommy dearest without the grief and frustration, try these five fun female-bonding experiences. Ma will love the one-on-one time! She’ll open up her soul while shutting her mouth. And you just might find that you and Mom have some things in common.
1.) Go to the movies. Take in a girlie flick. Buy fattening bonbons, eat sugary gummy bears, and butter up the popcorn! Between watching Meg Ryan and shoveling candy, you and Mom won’t have a spare second to bicker.
2.) Go shopping. While you and the mom might have different (read completely different) tastes when it comes to style, there’s nothing like a day at the mall to make you (and Mother) feel special. Shop till you drop … and never say no when Mommy offers up Daddy’s credit card.
3.) Go to the spa. A manicure, pedicure, body wrap, or massage will loosen you up and lessen the pain in your neck (caused by Mom).
4.) Start a book club. Choose a read and meet with Mom to chat about the latest happenings in your heroine’s love life. She’ll be so busy dissecting the protagonist’s woes, she’ll forget all about yours.
5.) Go out to eat. Pick a hot spot with intimate lighting (so Mom doesn’t scrutinize your acne), live music (so it’ll drown out any nagging), and delicious food. Mom will think it’s because you love her, but it’s really so that you can skip her blah cooking.

Hello, caring, sweet, and slightly overprotective mothers. We know bonding with your adult daughter can be a strain. She’s always on the defensive. She never wants to share. And she’s constantly jumping down your throat.
Get in some quality time with your grown-up baby by engaging in some fun and fabulous girlie time.
1.) Go to the movies. But stay away from the buttery popcorn and sugary snacks. You don’t want your daughter eating to fill the void.
2.) Go shopping. Try to persuade your daughter to buy something a little classier. And nothing will win you more points than offering up the hubby’s credit card.
3.) Go to the spa. Treat your sweetie to a decadent treatment. (And perhaps some microdermabrasion for those post-teenage pimples.)
4.) Start a book club. Anything with a half-naked Fabio on the cover comes highly recommended.
5.) Go out to eat. She’ll think it’s a sweet treat meant just for her … but it’s really to escape a night slaving over the stove!
