4. Stay in and bond

If your mom complains that you’re never home, it’s a good idea to stay in and spend quality time with her. Make it a fun, full day and night of bonding. Put down your phones, play board games, put face masks on, do each other’s nails, binge-watch a good show or multiple movies (don’t forget the popcorn) and talk and talk. If you’re a wiz in the kitchen, whip up delicious meals for her. If not, turn to your favorite delivery app.

5. Pretend you’re tourists

When you’ve lived in the same city your entire life, you tend to get jaded about it. Why don’t you invite your mom to experience your city with new eyes by pretending to be tourists? Go to the museums (have you been to the National Museum of Natural History?), stroll around the parks, visit galleries, try restaurants you’ve never been to before, take lots of pictures and find new reasons to love your ‘hood.
