A Stock Phrase spoken by a person whose mother has died or is now permanently beyond reach. This tends to be more common to hear from younger children, especially when talking to their remaining parental figures or siblings. The stock response is "I miss her too." This can also be included in conversations with non-family members, though the personal nature of the discussion usually limits it to friends and rivals, who may share similar stories of loss. Distinct from Missing Mom or other Parental Abandonment tropes in that the parent of the character in question was an active force in their life, for good or bad, but is now permanently gone. The Character is Dead, or maybe just certifiably dead from the beginning. Contrast with Ambiguously Absent Parent, where Mama's absence isn't acknowledged. Expect Ocular Gushers or Manly Tears. May be a Freudian Excuse, or something slightly more poignant. Examples with "I miss dad" are harder to come by for some reason. Compare to I Want My Mommy! (in its dramatic usage). Undoubtedly Truth in Television. |

Turns up in Buffy where Dawn tries to solve this problem by raising the dead. Never a pitfall free solution to this problem. Climaxes in a real Tear Jerker scene when Buffy confronts Dawn over her use of dark magic. Dawn accuses Buffy of not even missing her, prompting Buffy to break down in tears, revealing that she was just trying to stay strong for Dawn's sake. Dawn is so moved and Buffy is so distraught after opening the floodgates to her grief that they end up switching positions on the resurrection spell, with Buffy rushing to greet "mom" at the door and Dawn deciding to undo the spell at the last second and let their mother rest in peace. Also in Buffy's Despair Speech in the season 5 finale. In "Afterlife" the Scoobies are hitting the books for info on the Monster of the Week when Buffy (who isn't even pretending to help) says out of the blue, "I miss Giles." The Scoobies naturally assume their research skills aren't up to scratch, being unwilling or unable to see just how depressed Buffy is over being brought back from the dead. |

Ranma ½: Nabiki of all people pulls this on Ranma to try and get him to confess his curse to his mother (basically emotionally blackmailing him by saying at least he has a mother while her and her sisters no longer do). It's possible she may even mean it as she takes a lot longer to get to the extortion than usual. | |

Koko in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the subject of a series of Fetch Quests where you retrieve ingredients for her so she can cook meals for her sister Cottla. She occasionally mentions that she does this for her sister because their mother is dead and their father is too busy with his guard duties to do so himself. The final quest sees her breaking down into tears and saying how much she misses her mother. | |

Wonder Girl: While Donna Troy's history is subject to change her most iconic and oft revisited backstory involves her being adopted at an early age, then losing her adoptive parents and being rescued from a fire by Wonder Woman, who took her home with her where her mother adopted Donna. Despite being perfectly happy with her adoptive family she spends a lot of time searching for her bio mom and previous adoptive parents, as she has vague but happy memories of them and misses them. | |

Played rather sweetly in Shadowlands, when C.S. Lewis (played by Anthony Hopkins) is mourning the death of his wife, and sees his stepson, Douglas, crying about this. Lewis breaks down and joins him ("I miss her too"), in the first moment of real bonding between the two of them in the film. | |

Once More with Feeling: During their argument in the Eva cages, Shinji said his father he has not forgotten that robot was the thing swallowed his mother. He constantly misses Yui, and when a co-worker told him several things he remembered about her, Shinji was deeply grateful for those memories. Later Asuka asks Shinji if his mother still shelters him. When Shinji replies his mother is dead Asuka feels horrible because she misses her late mother badly and realizes Shinji must feel the same thing. |

Child of Kamiari Month: Kanna was very close to her mother, who engendered her love of running in order to prepare her for her destiny of taking over the duty of Idaten, and was left devastated when she passed away, blaming herself for it. Her motivation for agreeing to the gods' quest is Shiro promising she'll be reunited with her mother as a reward, though even the most powerful of the earthbound gods can't make this happen and can only counsel Kanna that her grief will pass with time. | |

Yes, Your Grace: It's entirely possible to end the game with the Player Character's wife dead but the only daughter who still lives in the castle by the end of the game still alive. In such routes, the final scene that is supposed to involve the Player Character, his wife, his daughter and his newborn son if all four are alive will include the daughter saying she wishes her mother was present. | |

At the beginning of the Season 1 finale of Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated, Fred notices his father looking forlornly at a photo of Fred's Missing Mom. Fred asks him, "You miss her, don't you?". Instead of answering the question, he scolds him for sneaking up on him, though immediately apologizes afterwards and tells his son that he loves him — which is rather affectionate, coming from him. Partly chalked up to Fred's father not liking being seen emotionally vulnerable, but it also turns out by the end of the episode that he felt guilty about lying to Fred; he's actually his kidnapper and the Big Bad of Season 1. He was sad while looking at the photo not because he misses his partner (who does not exist; it's a photo of a random woman ripped from a magazine), but it was symbolic of his remorse, which also explains why he didn't reinforce the lie by answering that he misses her too. | |

Harry Potter: Harry is pretty stoic about this, having no memories of his parents, but he has a moment like this when he visits his parents' grave. Also, at the end of The Goblet of Fire, when Mrs. Weasley hugs him he reflects that he'd never before been hugged in that way, the way a mother hugs her child. Of course, in the same book Rita Skeeter twists words around and literally writes that he cries for his mother every night. |

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Pretty much everyone but Ritsuko misses their mothers. Shinji and Asuka miss their moms. Ironically, they've never been closer to them. While avoiding the exact phrase, the series includes a scene of Shinji and Gendo visiting Yui's grave that kind of carries the feel of this trope. Rather than the standard "I miss her too" sentiment though, Gendo instead discusses how he was fortunate to have what time he did with her and how important it is to rise above the loss, which Shinji finds rather inspiring. Nonetheless, the ultimate goal of the master plan that Gendo is scheming throughout the series is using an apocalyptic event to reunite his soul with Yui. |

A rare example where someone says this about both parents is seen in Episode 25 of Tiger & Bunny. Barnaby (whose parents were murdered when he was four) visits their grave and ends up in tears, saying "I miss you... Mum, Dad! I wish... I could've spent more time with the two of you." | |

In EarthBound (1994), "Homesickness" is a Standard Status Effect which exclusively affects Ness at random, based on a percentage set by his current level. The game has three ways of curing this status, by either calling mom on a telephone or talking to her in person by going back to Onett, encountering a new Your Sanctuary location, or by getting cured of any status effect through the help of Doctor Saturn. | |

As of Act 5 of Homestuck, John started missing his dad and got quite annoyed when things got in the way of finding him; the one time they almost met up on the Battlefield was cut short by Vriska waking him up. Needless to say, he did not take finding his dad dead at Jack Noir's hand well. | |

Mazinger Z: Shiro lost his parents when he was barely a baby. He misses them—and his older brother Kouji in Great Mazinger—, but he mainly and badly misses his mother. How badly? The tile of an episode is "Shiro misses his mother" (in the Latin dubbing). In that episode, a woman came to the Institute claiming she was Kouji and Shiro's mother and wants to get reunited with their children again. Kouji was—rightfully—suspicious, but Shiro was too glad and happy for questioning anything. | |

Comes up in Avatar: The Last Airbender a few times, what with all the war-orphans. One particular Tear Jerker in the episode "The Runaway" has Sokka confessing that as much as he misses her, he can't even remember his mother's face anymore. When he thinks of her, all he can picture is Katara, his younger sister who took over mothering him when their mom was killed. Toph also finally admits that she misses her parents (though they are still alive) and feels bad about making them worry all this time. | |

Superman: It isn't unusual for members of the Superman Family -most of which are orphans- to dwell on their deceased parents. Pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths, Superman was very broken up by his four parents' deaths. Back then he often mused that his powers could do anything... but preventing Jor-El and Lara from getting blown up and Jonathan and Martha from dying from heart disease. Who is Superwoman? opens up with a scene where Supergirl dwells on her father Zor-El, who was murdered by Reactron several weeks earlier. Power Girl (2009): At the end of the Palmiotti/Conner's run, Power Girl sees Terra hugging her parents and sheds a tear while remembering her deceased family and friends. In The Black Ring, Lex Luthor gains godlike power which he uses to taunt Superman with memories of his past failures. Defiant, Superman challenges him to watch his most painful memory... Jonathan Kent's death. Luthor, who cannot -doesn't want to- believe the "alien" has human-like feelings, has a breakdown. In The Unknown Supergirl, when Kal sees Kara happily interacting with her adoptive parents, he cannot help remembering his deceased adoptive parents and his happy childhood in Smallville. |

A major thread throughout Super 8 is the kid protagonist trying to reconnect with his father after the death of the mother. The problem is that whenever the kid tries to initiate this kind of moment, the dad, in his determination to be strong, becomes emotionally distant. There's also something about an alien in the movie, too. | |

In Jumanji, near the end, Judy says to Peter, "I wish Mom and Dad were here," which he agrees with (both of their parents died in an accident during a vacation). It's made even more tragic because Judy had just been shot in the throat with poisonous darts from a plant and, given how little movement she seemed capable of, was either very close to dying or already had died when Allen wins the game (which, fortunately, resets everything—including the deaths of Peter and Judy's parents). | |

Could be argued that the entirety of Mother 3 is centered around this. Lucas is stuck in a stagnant form of grieving for his mom during most of the game, always remembering what she taught him and how much he misses her, and visiting her grave often. This is also the reason that Claus set out to avenge her death and disappears afterwards. Flint also shares this sentiment, but instead of grieving together with Lucas, he focuses his thoughts and time on searching for Claus instead to cope. Chapter 6 of the game is also primarily centered around Lucas tearfully chasing his Mother's ghost through a field of sunflowers to be with her again, even jumping off a cliff in his desperation to reach her. And at the end of the game, her ghost returns to bring Claus back to his senses, and he subsequently kills himself to be together with her in death. Given that there are plenty of robots in a certain restaurant in New Pork City that look like her, even Porky Minch seems to miss his permanently estranged mother, horrible as she was. |

One South Park episode featured a fake, live-action commercial a fictional product based on the episode. The family in the commercial happily enjoys the product until the little girl randomly says "I wish Dad was still alive," momentarily causing the cheery music to falter and the mom's smile to fade. | |

A lighter variant here; Charlotte's Web has Wilbur say to the Goose sitting on her eggs once he knows that he can talk to her now (after a song and dance number), "I miss Fern," Fern being his owner (who is still alive and promises to visit him). | |

Red Dead Redemption 2: Combine that with "Even Bad Men Love Their Mamas". In one campfire interaction, Javier Escuella says that he heard that his mother died, and there's a bit of sadness in him when he says, "I mourn her... but I did not bury her." Combined with the fact that his sister got married, he says that he's afraid to go back to Mexico because he might get killed. | |

Pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths, Superman was very broken up by his four parents' deaths. Back then he often mused that his powers could do anything... but preventing Jor-El and Lara from getting blown up and Jonathan and Martha from dying from heart disease. | |

Doing It Right This Time: Shinji and Asuka missed their late mothers in the original timeline. Now they know what has happened to them, they are looking forward to meet them again (although Shinji has no idea what telling to Yui after her actions). Averted with Rei who never knew her mother and did not care about it. And now she knows who she is, she does not like her. |
