There's a phrase in the movie where the mom and kid tell each other "I love you" by saying "Moogie". My husband and I saw the movie eons ago and started saying that. We were thrilled to see it was available on DVD so we could see it again!!

Meredith Baxter Was One of The Greatest and Most Talented American Actress In the 20th Century. She Has The Ability to Make Her Characters- In Any of Her Movies- To Become Very Live And Genuine...This is A Very Distinguished Movie Along With Kate's Secret and Darkness Before Dawn. Those Three Movies Strating Baxter Must Been Seen.

4.0 out of 5 stars Three Cheers for the good moms in this world!
Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2007

"For the Love of Aaron" is a very touching film. It deals with the challenges a mother with mental illness faces while raising her son as a single parent. Raising kids is tough under the best of circumstances but this mom dealt with difficulties most of us thankfully will never know. Her mental illness caused financial problems and also a co-dependant relationship with her son that might be viewed in a negative light by "authorities" but in reality showed that once again, love triumphs. Meredith Baxter did a great job and the young man who played her son will capture your heart. The chemistry between them was delightful and there were moments of humor and tears but lots and lots of "special" moments just because a mom and son were spending time together doing ordinary things. Expect to shed some tears at the threat of this precious child being removed from the custody of the person who loves him more than anyone else in this world. Due to the serious topic this movie covers, it would be more appropriate for teens and up. This movie clearly made the point that financial excess does not guarantee that a child's true needs are being met. The sacrificial love of a parent does more for a child than all the "things" this world has to offer.

For the Love of Aaron is a wonderful family movie about a talented, erratic mother trying to retain custody of her very poised, loving son against all odds. The mother has great supporting friends, and Aaron's love for her is inspiring. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes heartwarming, family movies without gore or nastiness.

1.0 out of 5 stars corny treacly cliched TV movie
Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2008
Verified Purchase
I bought this sight unseen because I like Meredith Baxter, but
unlike "The Kissing Place" which was excellent, this TV movie was bad.
It was corny, over-sentimental, and totally unconvincing in plot and
execution. I may have seen it when it first played, and turned it off
before the end, which I also did this time. It has all the character-
istic features that give some TV movies a bad name. Mom loves her son,
but is mentally off, and is in danger of losing him. The problem is
her part is played quirky, almost comedically, undercutting the reality
of her predicament. Not a believable moment in this mess.

3.0 out of 5 stars For the love of Pete!
Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2009
As a guy who had a troubled mother, I found this movie interesting. The part of the troubled mom was played well. However, the part of the son, although well played in terms of acting, was far too idealistic. It was too nice. Too clean. A son who has such a troubled mother would be quite troubled himself. This was not shown correctly in this film. Also I thought the family origins of the mother's troubles were hit upon far too lightly. The film could have been greatly strengthened as a healing medium by a better analysis of the origins of her problem and how they worked themselves out through her life and into her own family structure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Open-hearted and honest
Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2014
I have rarely come across a piece of drama that examines the life of a family coping with mental illness in such a fair and even-handed way, and without an overdose of histrionics or melodrama. I speak with considerable knowledge when I say that this film accurately and sensitively portrays the sometimes co-dependent relationship between a mother and her caring young son. This is a film to watch if you really want to understand what a young carer is, or if you really want to understand all sides of the debate around such families. Meredith Baxter captures the physical and emotional nuances of a sufferer of mental illness who still has her faculties at the same time, and Keegan Macintosh nails the part of the kid who has to be flexible enough to cope with any situation that arises, whilst retaining some childhood. You'll want to comfort Baxter's Margaret Gibson, and you'll want to hug Macintosh's Aaron. This film will leave you re-examining things you thought you understood.
