>> looks like a -- an ad, a commercial ad for mercedes or something, doesn't it, so far? >> mm-hmm. >> yes, kath, it does. hoda, i'm talking to you. >> okay. i'm riveted. >> okay. you're invited. >> boss wedding, san francisco. >> whoa. >> wow. >> i just heard, i think anthony, go, plenty of money. >> be careful what you say, anthony. i can hear it. >> that is -- that is a total turnoff. >> the couple met at the university of san francisco school of law . if you have problems with that, i don't blame you. their wedding website, bosswedding.com has no further details yet. and you say -- >> i don't know. seems like a lot of coin to drop on a video that is letting people know when your wedding is.

i guess if you have money -- you know what i don't like. i think it is fine for people to have money. i like that people have what they have, i don't like the flaunting part, i don't like the close-up of the diamond, like -- if you have it, you have it. good for you, happy for you. >> isn't it a matter of choice. it wasn't meant to go viral. it was meant for their friends and family. >> i don't know. i have to look at it. i don't like it. >> aren't you tired of getting angry people's mail, hoda? just when things quiet down, you stir the pot again. >> we want to know what you think of that video. >> whole other thing about too, speaking of weddings, a lot of brides, one third of all brides apparently is a falling out of one kind or another with bridesmaids. >> there is a perfect example of this in a great movie called "bridesmaids." >> the you i know would have walked in here and rolled your eyes and thought this was completely over the top, ridiculous and stupid.

look at the shower! look at that [ bleep ] cookie. oh, delicious, stupid cookie, i think i'll -- maybe it is better if i dip it in the chocolate. this is what you want, lillian? >> that is the best -- >> she's expressive. a new survey says one third of recently married women say they're no longer friends with at least one of their bridesmaids. >> here's the thing. here's what happens. there is a lot of tension during the wedding time. people are asked to drop a lot of money on things like trips and dresses and -- >> it is a long way and very expensive. >> sometimes friendships end, sometimes they say for inappropriate behavior at the wedding, your bridesmaids goes a little cray cray or arguments over dresses and money and all that sort of -- i sort of get

it. i had my sister as my bridesmaids and i love her. >> both times it was a small event, just my sister and another friend. and we're still friendly, but -- >> we want to know if you've ever broken up with a bride. >> i want to know what people think too about this. is it okay? say one of your great friend or something from college is getting married but the wedding is going to be in capri, and you just know you can't afford to go to capri. or florida or anywhere -- >> i'm jt saying some place you would like to go, but the truth is you can't afford it, how would you deal with that? >> i think -- well, we had a destination wedding and i knew it was going to be a pain. so we offered to pay for everyone's lodging and food and stuff, and as long as they could get there. the idea is, if you get there, we'll do the other stuff. >> you dropped some major cash. >> i did. and it apparently wasn't really worth it.

i think sometimes you got to -- but i think it is fair -- >> i think it is very fair to say i would love to be there for you, it is such an honor to be asked, but i can't. i'm going through this, this or this right now. and i don't know then if i would feel good about then somebody paying for me to go either. >> after you said that, i would -- >> social qs thing this is interesting. there is a writer in the social qs column. he said he or she has a relative and they want a specific gift for their birthday, there was somebody who actually e-mailed the link to the store so that the person could buy the present. so it didn't make it easier -- >> they say, well, i'll pay for it, but i'll bill you. so billing me for a gift that you probably don't want to get them in first place. >> he says it probably doesn't pay to try to educate an adult about rudeness. et cetera, et cetera.

it is a silly idea -- >> too late i bought your present. too late, i just took back what i got you and maybe they'll stop being rude. >> there are people registering at stores, like bed, bath and beyond, for birthday presents. >> that's what i'm saying. i don't know. i think after a certain point, those people have already been married, i don't think you should have a bridal registry again. that's just me. if he's got a toaster, you've got a toaster -- >> what if you need a blender or something? what if you need something? >> go out and buy it. you can get a very nice one at sam's club and different places like that. i don't know. i just think it is a gimme, gimme, gimme world, way too much, hoda woman. >> anyway. so here is our -- this is our try day friday shirt. this is so great. >> this is in honor of national parkinson's awareness month. 1 million people -- >> have this disease. you know how difficult it can be if you have this disease or know

raising children can be a challenging but incredibly rewarding experience. and the relationship between a mother and son can shape his future, providing him with the tools to become an extraordinary man. >> dr. meg meeker is bringing us "strong mothers, strong sons". >> an interesting theme. i always agree with everything you say. i do. it is just such common sense. >> it is. it is. >> is there an outpouring after your first book that you thought, hey, time to turn the page? >> absolutely. i got such a great response from fathers about the "strong fathers , strong daughters." what i tried to do in that book

is show who they are from behind their daughter's eyes and this is what i did with this "strong mothers, strong sons" because mothers try so much to give so much to their kids. but so much what we give is the wrong stuff. i think we focus more on -- we dote on them too much, we want to make life easy for them, we want to fix all of their problems and heal all of their wounds, which is fine when they're 0 to 10. but 17 and 18, you can't do that. >> you said you have to let them go at 10. >> you do. that's the first separation when they're starting to go through puberty. not to let go completely, but back off -- boys at this point, here is this person i love and adore and we're close and cozy and life is wonderful and they wake up and go, wait a minute, now i'm a guy and she's a girl and it is a little creepy. >> but you don't go cold turkey. so what is a mom to do? what is the right way to add some distance without cutting off? >> the first thing they need to do is recognize how can we show

our boys affection without being overbearing? and i think we need to do that, we don't do things in public, for instance. don't run up to your son in the hallway at school and give him a hug and a kiss. >> in front of friends and everything give him an opportunity to find what decisions can he make, where he's going to succeed or fail. don't make all the decisions for him. >> i think we're doing them a favor and doing them such a disservice, aren't we? we're not preparing them for real life where people tell them no all the time. >> i think it is really important with young men, even more so than with young daughters. i think we emotionally cripple our boys when we do too much for them. but those of us who are very intense mothers, we adore our kids, we do so much for them far into their 20s, and we need to let them stand on their own, fall on their face, fail and figure out how to get through life again. >> you say normally sons push their moms away too. at what point do they go away and then circle back? >> when is that going to happen?

>> my son is just starting to like me again. right around 15, it was like what happened to -- >> i think 15 to 25 can be horrible years. but those are the years you need to pull back. we have to have their back. don't just throw them to all of their friends like to a pack of wolves, say do whatever you want to do. we always have their back and watch them carefully. we let them make decisions so they can fall and fail and learn to get back up. but usually in the mid-20s, i say you're not done raising your child until about 25. that's when you get what you wanted. the reward comes when their brain development is finally done at 25. and they're men. and that's when your relationship really becomes not just a mother/child, but more of a friendly relationship. >> my daddy used to say to me, honey, i love you too much to deny you the privilege of making mistakes. >> exactly. >> thank you so much. >> my mom was cool too but didn't say stuff like that. lovely to meet you.

the book is terrific. bobbie is all abuzz about getting rid of unwanted fuzz. >> she bears all. >> what? we really wanted to take a relaxing trip to florida. you know? just to unwind. but we can only afford one trip this year, and his high school reunion is coming up in seattle. everyone's going. then we heard about hotwire... and realized we could actually afford to take both trips.

it is time for bobbie's buzz. whether you're a plucker, shaver, waxer, how to move unwanted hair without spending a lot of money. >> here to tell us is our very own bobbie thomas. and it is your fourth anniversary. >> four years. it has been fun. okay. i have wanted to answer the question for a while.

women have been asking about face shaving because it has been a hot topic on blogs and on youtube. and, yes, it is okay to shave your face, professionals call it dermacleaning. i recommend for first timers to go to a professional or at the very least do not buy a straight edge blade. what beauty insiders use are eyebrow shavers. these by pinkel have a guard, they're not sharp, but, please, not for children. you'll want to gently shave your face -- >> and it -- >> how does it grow back in? >> it grows back in, but not thicker or darker, just thin -- but the bonus is that it takes off the dead skin cells and absorbs your products better and -- for just a couple of bucks, i'll do it after. i'll get your chin hair. >> okay. i take care of the chin hair, thank you. >> if you want an alternative that has nothing to do with a razor, try a cream.

be careful with creams. they're chemicals and you can burn yourself. >> you may have a reaction. >> test it out, make sure. next, something new on the market are serums that are saying they're going to help slow the growth and the density of the hair. inhibitive is something that the uk fans beauty bloggers have been raving about. after two months of applying it twice daily, a lot of people are seeing the claims true that you get thinner hair and it grows back -- >> two months people have a beard. >> better take care of it before that. >> and at the drugstore, good old favorite, sally hanson, wax strips, they added pretreatment strips to help with the pain. medicated wipes to give you a little extra and -- >> and look. >> gillette, look at how cute, and bic has this great shave guard, the first with the bikini trimmer. they're all on bobbie.com and our website and tips and more
