Read a random definition: yeas and nays

A quick definition of psychological mother:

A parent is someone who is responsible for taking care of a child. This can include the biological mother or father, an adoptive parent, or a legal guardian. A custodial parent is the one who has physical custody of the child, while a noncustodial parent may have visitation rights. A de facto parent is someone who has taken care of a child for a significant amount of time, even if they are not the legal parent. A psychological parent is someone who provides emotional and physical support to a child on a regular basis. The parental-autonomy doctrine states that parents have the right to make decisions for their child, unless it endangers the child's health or welfare.

A more thorough explanation:

A psychological mother is a type of psychological parent, which refers to a person who provides for a child's emotional and physical needs on a continuing and regular basis. This person may be the biological parent, a foster parent, a guardian, a common-law parent, or some other person unrelated to the child.

For example, a stepmother who has taken on the role of caring for and nurturing her stepchild as if they were her own biological child could be considered a psychological mother. Another example could be a close family friend who has been a consistent source of support and guidance for a child.

The concept of a psychological parent is important in cases where legal custody may not accurately reflect the child's best interests. It recognizes the importance of emotional bonds and relationships in a child's life, even if they are not legally recognized as a parent.
