Once a woman becomes a mother she may weed items out of her closet. Maybe her midriff days were numbered, or she can't wrap her mind around a postpartum miniskirt.

The relationship between mothers and their daughters is an incredibly strong one. Moms raising girls have the power to shape the next generation of women and those to come by teaching their kids important lessons.

Most moms are cautious drivers unless they are running late. When it comes to getting their precious cargo to school before the bell, lots of women put the pedal to the metal so their kids aren't tardy. Last night on Parenthood, Julia and Sydney's quality time in the car was interrupted when another mom and tot cut them off in the carpool lane.

Is the word "mother" a technically or socially defined word to you? Is a woman only a mother when she has physically given birth? Or does the title also apply to those who adopt, have legal custody, or even just a hand in raising a youngster?
