Becouse Prue would teach her children how be confident and to stand up for yourself.

And Prue would make sure you never give up and get somewhere in you life.

Judging from how Piper and Phoebe developed ugly personalities after Prue died, I'd have to agree. Prue would make the best mother.

Ironically, though, I think she'd be much better off not being one. She was a mother to her sisters when they were kids, and she continued to be that type of figure to them as an adult, though less as they all grew older. I like to think that if she survived, she would choose to not be a mom.

There was a "Which Charmed Sister would make the best mother?" One reply was,"They all have good motherly instincts.

Prue-Would teach her kids to be strong, confident and courageous.

Piper. Would be a loving mother and be there for her kids.

Phoebe would be the cool fun mom who made her kids happy.

Paige would be the mom who raised her kids to be compassionate and nice.

Drake is repetitive. He just raps the same thing over and over as if he is in an insane asylum!LOL:D

Piper would be a loving mother??? And be there for her kids???

Piper? *scratches head* Piper, who was never loving to anyone but herself and always shoved her magical kids onto their unmagical grandfather? PIPER????

Were we watching the same show?

Phoebe stopped being fun once she met Cole. Then it was just all about her and who her baby daddy would be. I don't think she'd care much about the kid (or the guy) once she was pregnant.

Prue and Paige would make the best mother, but like someone else said, I don't think either would want to be one.

All part of why I still think that 'Forever Charmed' was Piper's delusion as she died after the 'Kill Billie, Vol 2' explosion.

Yes, Piper was a very loving mother and I didn't see her constantly giving the kids to Victor to babysit. I'm not sure what magic has to do with him spending time with his grandsons though. Why does that matter?

If Piper's your definition of a very loving mother, I feel sorry for you.

Victor could not protect the boys if some baddie showed up - they'd have to protect *him*. And they could use their magic to walk all over him. Leaving the boys with him was *not* being a good mother at all. Bringing them to Magic School would've made a lot more sense.

I think people often mistook Phoebe's need to find her baby daddy for just that, some frivolous endeavor. But she was so concerned with that little girl she saw, and the future she saw for everyone... and that's what drove her. Not some selfish quest.

But I guess that's subjective.

I know the majority of Charmed fans don't like Phoebe. I've rewatched the show a bunch of times (as I'm sure every fan has) and as I get older I find her less and less annoying, and the other sisters more and more annoying. So now it's gotten to the point where I totally get why she became the way she was, don't blame her, and find her the least selfish and annoying of all of them.

I never liked Prue. There's confidence and then there's thinking you're better than everyone. Prue sometimes gave the impression that she suffered from narcissism. Not a good quality to pass down to your kids.

I'd pick Phoebe. She would teach her kids the importance of love and kindness.
