6 Next-Level Fictional Moms

Your mom is great, obviously, but what if she could protect you with magic? Or what if she was extremely sinister but only because she loved you so much? We asked our Facebook and Twitter fans who they thought were the most extreme fictional moms. What follows is our highly subjective list taken from their suggestions.

Marmee from Little Women

A sentiment frequently expressed when we asked this question: "Marmee #bestmomever" - @Supergirl via Twitter. Marmee raised four obnoxious girls, one who was DYING, basically on her own, all while keeping the house together, volunteering and never raising her voice. Also: she doesn't take so much as one Advil. Could you do that?

Pookie's Mom

"Pookie's mom in the Sandra Boynton series is my role model." -@leadjen via Twitter. Also: she's a pig who wears clothes. Impressive.

Molly Weasley from the Harry Potter series

Molly Weasley is a mommy blogger ideal--creating an atmosphere of love and whimsy via actual magic in her cozy home and fighting literal battles for her children. Judging by the nominations Molly Weasley got on Facebook and Twitter, she's the magical mother we all wish we had (OF COURSE NOT LOVE YOU MOM).

Caroline "Ma" Ingalls from the Little House series

Okay so Ma isn't 100% fictional, but entire generations of Americans most certainly attribute "All's well that ends well" to her instead of that interloper Shakespeare. Also, she wore a corset and traveled by wagon and kept her cool under pressure. These days most of us lose it in rush hour traffic.

Coraline's "Other Mother"

Who hasn't secretly wished their mom was a little bit different? Yes, there are some problems with Coraline's "Other Mother" but you can't say she isn't committed to Coraline...

Cersei Lannister from Song of Fire and Ice series

Rachel on Facebook calls Cersei "pretty horrifying" which seems accurate. Alcoholic, in a relationship with her twin brother, blood thirsty, vengeful, terrible at boundaries and discipline. Yeah. Not great if you are say, one of her children's "friends" or subjects, but if you ARE one of her children, she will stop at nothing to give you everything your heart desires.
