Lots of people have other moms who may not be step-moms just friends of the family. I know it was normal in my family and my mom was totally cool with it. She even encouraged it LOL I've had three other moms (plus my step-mom, so five moms altogether) in my life and they were all special to me. To me it's normal to hav...more
