Because I said so

How many times have a seemingly well-meaning parent help us make decisions or insist we stick with their decision because they think they know what is best for us or they think they know it all & their knowledge is actually so out-dated, it would make the 30's seem like yesterday. Well, it has happened to everyone of us & it will continue to happen to our children for as long as time never stands still. Seems like we have this parental gene that makes us do silly things that we swore we would never do while we have not become parents ourselves. Those little ones sure can trigger a lot of hidden mechanisms inside us. There's the I'm-27-&-I'm-still-not married gene, the I-want-grandchild-right-now gene, etc. All these stem from the fact that parents have unsettled issues with themselves. Well, let us try not to make our problems become our children's problem.

That is basically what this movie is about. Mother with good intentions making life difficult for her daughter. Below is a summary of the plot.

Daphne Wilder is a mother whose love knows no bounds or boundaries. As a single parent, she has raised three fantastic girls--klutzy, adorable Milly, stable psychologist Maggie and sexy and irreverent Mae--to become the kind of women any mom would die to have. The only problem is they're about to strangle her. In order to prevent her youngest, Milly, from making the same romantic mistakes she did, Daphne decides to set her up with the perfect man. The one thing Daphne decides not to tell Milly, however, is that she placed an ad in the online personals to find him. If anyone knows exactly what her daughter does and doesn't need out of a long-term relationship (or clothes or her career), it's Daphne. Comic mayhem unfolds as the well-intended mom continues to do the wrong thing for the right reasons--all in the name of love for her beloved daughter. Is the man of Daphne's (er, um--Milly's) dreams the responsible architect Jason, or is he the free-spirited rocker Johnny? Daphne will continue to push, cajole, suggest and nudge her way into Milly's smallest of decisions until she rights the wrongs of her own life choices or drives her girl nuts. But once Johnny's own father, Joe, catches a buried spark within Daphne, things really start to heat up for the Wilder matriarch. Finally letting herself begin to fall, Daphne begins to wonder if she is just pushing her girls as a way of ignoring her own issues.

Ja neh!!!
