NEXT: Mama's Boys


 
OMGOODNESS!!! i feel sooo bad for sofia..her MIL is such a intrusive person i felt like screaming at the TV to tell her to shut up!!! Her boyfriend is such a loser, he is just so sad. He needs to grow up and take care of his new family!!!!! BE A MAN!!!
 
Sophia is a beautiful woman and she needs to leave that crazy family alone. Jerry's mother is crazy as they come she can do better then him in so many ways. I wouldnt deal with neither one of them because they have some issuses they need to workout themselves because no normal family acts like that. Also that is very coward of Jerry to not live with his son.
 
omg in sophias case i jus think that jery really doesnt want to be wit her!he is usn his mom so that he doesnt look bad and isnt he sed that he grew up without a father and thats y he is so close to his mom then he is literaly setting up e same situation for his kid coz he aint gona b there 4 him too!
 
I am with a mama's boy! I've always known he was a mama's boy and I'm okay with it because she is a very nice lady. Nowhere near Jerry's mother in fact my father-in-law would claim she was raised by bears the way she was acting. The last guy wasn't so bad. But the mom who got matching tattoos, that's a bit much. My daughter asked me to get a tattoo for taking her for her third and I said "Hell No"! I don't mind if he calls his mom and goes to see her once or twice a year. If he had his way we would be back in New York near her. He would never leave his children to go back home though.
 
I just watched the mama's boy show, and I think they need tpo do a mama's girl show. I have a friend who does what ever her mama wants her too do. She'll has ruined her relationship with her boyfriend over it, they also had a child together. Her mom always talked about her boyfriend badly, to him and behind his back. Her boyfriend was my cousin, so I know for a fact he wasn't a bad guy. But it was because of her mom and her mama's girl attitude that they split up. You've got tp do a mama's girl show tyra.

The first guess that came on that mom really disgust me,1st she never gave the young lady a chance, this woman is the mother of her 1st and only grandchild she deserve RESPECT!! and for him to allow his mom to disrespect her like that is SAD,he is boy still on his mother nipple, she is a beautiful woman and one day she will see that she is and move on and find a man who is a MAN!!!! And ole BOY will lose out and realize he made a mistake,It may take another man to come in and raise his son as a man because right now he cant do it..and to the young lady i will pray that god will give you the strength to go on with your life and find the right man who deserve YOU..BE BLESS
 
Hi Tyra I just watched your show about Mama's boys and I thought my man was one cause he always will listen to her but he will leave his mama for me he lives an hour away from me and he will walk to me every night. But me and his mama talked and she just told me she wants to teach him how to be a man and stick up for himself. There is nothing wrong with being a Mama's boy..I'm a mama's girl.
 
I posted an email on this topic on the other page & I encourged namrata to read it. there is nothing wrong w/having an unbreakable bond w/your child. but when it's to the level these guests are at-it is beyond unhealthy! I raised my son for almost 8yrs by myself. There were many of lonely nights, hard-times, etc but I didn't expect him to make up for those things I lacked. I was always thinking if I did this or that~if that was a healthy decision for him as a 'man'! when you truly love your child in a healthy manner-that's what you(are supposed to) do..think of the long-term effects on that child. these mom's are selfish & have an extremely distorted view of love & how to show it! as do you...
 
My husband is a mama's boy since I knew him and we've been married for 1 1/2 yrs and have a 5mth old daughter. I never imagined how bad it would get after we got married living together, his mom would call constantly and he would do the same. I would say if I wasn't the way I am towards the both of them things would be worse as it already is and we would not still be married. He is so indulged to his mom to the point where I feel that If one of us were going to die he would probably save his mom, and when I throw these in his face and tell him how I feel he is in complete denial. Right now all I am trying to do is move away as far as possible so that may be he would change and try to focus on what's in front of him. Perhaps GOD saw my struggles and answered my prayer by having this topic on the Tyra show because this has been eating me alive since day 1, and now I can feel that I am not the only one out there going through this and that there are so many other people in my shoe who feels my pain. Why should I have to feel like I'm in a competition with my mother-in-law. If I can cook, clean, do laundry, and so can she then what am I here for, just sex I don't think so!!!. I really don't know what to do about this one, I guess all you can do is just pray and let GOD change my husband and get him to open his eyes and Man up, and my mother-in-law to step back and let us live our
 
Hey Tyra I just watched your show about mama boy !!! I have a question to you why are you spreading a wrong message I am asking whats wrong in being in mama's boy ............whats wrong in loving ur mom don't you love ur mom dad.......first be mother of someone then raise that kind of question..........I think u dont know the importrance of mother and always remeber that mother always wants their child happiness dont consider as a barrier between son and his Girlfriend and one more thing a girl came in somebody life just for few years but that mother she gave the birth and she knows her son since child birth ...I am really upset from ur show please don't put question on mother and son relationship because u cannot compare mother to anyone in this world there are so many girls can come and go but mother is only only one ! mother is the second name of GOD if you get time then ask your mother thanks hope you understand GOD Bless you and God bless America!!
 
These mothers love their sons, but they are confusing their over-involvement and obsessive need to keep their sons close, with putting their kids first. These moms are filling an emotional need they have and in the process, have deeply confused these boys. Where are the boundries? The moms don't even see how they are doing their children a diservice, and how this is is totally disfunctional. These girls involved are so hurt by the rejection and their self-esteem is damged. These mothers are not teaching their sons to grow up and be responsible men. It's terrible to see this...very disturbing..there is so much denial here.
 
Ephesians 5:31 "For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother and shall cleave to his wife and that shall become one flesh." As a mother of a son I could imagine the struggle to let my son go or the fact the one day my son will love another woman more than he loves me. I know it hard to let go; but that your job as a mother isn't it?
 
I am with a mamma's boy, this man still lives at home, his MAMMA wakes him up every week day to watch a TV 7am. They make breakfast together (everyday), she does his laundry and puts it away, she packs his lunches for work (everyday), and HE IS 25 years old! They only thing she dont do is have sex with him and I feel like thats the only thing that I am there for! This is NOT right!
 
all i have to say is that there is a line between caring, and treating your mother right, and flat out being a mamma's boy. if your significant other turns out to be one, it's not going to be easy and it will be awkward. i dated a guy who was actually a daddy's boy. and it's just as bad. you'll always feel left out. and that can't be right.
