How far does a mother's love need to go?

When does a mother's love stop? When one is 10? When one graduates from college? When one gets married? When one has kids?

Well, the movie "because I said so" sort of explores this "motherly love" It's about an over eccentric mother who believes that she knows best about her daughter's life, needs and even, finding a right life partner. The mother (Daphne) goes all out by placing an advert and intervieiwing candidates that would be suitable for her daughter (Milly). After a harrowing time, she settles on smart looking Jason. However, in the midst of the interview comes along on looker Johnny who feels he has "the cuts" for the daughter. The story then proceeds from there on with hillarious consequences where Milly "tests waters" with Jason and Johnny, much to her mothers approval and disapproval.

The movie actually gets you thinking as to where do mothers really draw a line. But, then again, that line can be so fine it is hard to distinguish.

I was actually thinking aobut my mother from time to time while viewing the movie. I was trying to fit certain pieces to the way she acts towards me....and, like I said.... a very thin line.

All in all, I am glad I can still return home to a mother.... a person who I know for sure will go the certain mile to meet my needs; a person who I can love and cherish.

Motherly love or not, they are still our mothers.
