Preface:
This short essay is related to the essay And They Lived Happily Ever After...If They Married by Carson Tueller, a student at Weber State University. In Tueller's essay he talks about how Disney films portray women as being dependent on men. My response is about my mom, an independent woman and good friend of mine.
My Best Friend Named Mom My mom has always been one of my closest friends. Even though there have been some times in the past when she should have been more like a mother than a friend, I still appreciate that she has always been there for me. My mom is one person who I tell almost everything about my life. Now that I am an adult we have slightly different boundaries on our relationship than we had before. We can now have more adult-like conversations and enjoy adult activities together. She has always been an independent woman, and has been taking care of the house, in which I grew up, by herself for the past three years now. She demonstrates the capability of women.

My Best Friend Named Mom
My mom has always been one of my closest friends. Even though there have been some times in the past when she should have been more like a mother than a friend, I still appreciate that she has always been there for me. My mom is one person who I tell almost everything about my life. Now that I am an adult we have slightly different boundaries on our relationship than we had before. We can now have more adult-like conversations and enjoy adult activities together. She has always been an independent woman, and has been taking care of the house, in which I grew up, by herself for the past three years now. She demonstrates the capability of women.
