How can you say a kid is a momma's boy or a Daddy's girl?

Why is it good to be a Daddy's girl, but bad to be a Momma's boy? Whatever! makes no difference to me... How do you judge people?

Well, girls and their fathers tend to bond a little more, and that's okay, because as they get older they figure "Oh, cool, Daddy sees the puppy face, daughter gets what she wants!" So the daughters bond more to their fathers making them "Daddy's Girls" because Dad gets them what they want most of the time. Momma's Boys is the difficult one... Boys are supposed to want to bond more with Dad and do man things... (So most say) A Momma's Boy is someone who sucks up to mommy to get more respect. Instead of just asking for what they want, they're nice about it and earning it... they do what mommy says, and wont go ANYWHERE without his mommy. All of that post is at least 95% True. I was a daddy's girl untill I was about 13, and my Uncle is a momma's boy... and hes in his 40's lol. So you see, its bad to be a mommas boy because the child is TOO attached to Mommy. Being a Daddy's Girl, however, the daughter will grow out of it, unless she's from a rich preppie family.
