A “bonus mom” is a slang term used to refer to a stepmother or a mother figure who takes on a significant role in a child’s life, typically outside the traditional biological mother.
In many blended families, the term “bonus mom” is used to emphasize the additional love, care, and support provided by a stepmother or mother figure beyond what is expected. It highlights the positive contributions these women make in the lives of their stepchildren, recognizing their important role and the unique bond they may develop with the child.
Example 1: “Julia’s dad remarried, and now she has a bonus mom who has been incredibly supportive and loving towards her.”
Example 2: “Despite not being her biological mother, Sarah has stepped up as a bonus mom to her partner’s children, forming a strong and nurturing relationship with them.”
