Older black women who treat you like one of their children

Is this common outside of the south?
I was out riding today and managed a sunburn from the knee down.
At three separate gas stations an older black lady told me I should really get some sunblock on that.
I'm curious if this sort of behavior exists outside of the South?
These women always seem to set aside whatever the issues and differences of the day are and act in a maternal fashion.

Sunblock won't do shite for a sunburn.

Should have told that bitch to stop stalking you.

Not really as common outside of the south, in my experience.

If you go to a black family's house (for the most party, not every black family), they will treat you like family. I go visit an older black guy from time to time and when I go over, his wife makes sure I get something to eat, etc, etc.
I am not sure if it is a southern thing or not, more than likely, but I know what you mean.

Holdovers from a mammy complex?

Old ladies in general are awesome.

Man I have 4 older lady black neighbors and every single day at least one of them are tying to baby me in one way or another. It's pretty awesome how maternal they are. I probably get 5 random hugs a week from them just because we happen to be walking outside on the block at the same time.
I can sometimes smell food and it never fails someone is looking out their window for me to come home and running outside to offer me some soul food.

Telling you to put on sunblock is treating you like one of her children? Interdasting.

Old black ladies have been raising white kids in the south for a long time now.

Oh my baby, Heard it a thousand times

You seem like the low information dude.
How the flip do you know they had it in the first place and are setting it aside?
Weak.

Rando.
Blood is thicker than water.
It's sad, but true.

Yep. I was talking to one the other day, and she tried to whip me with an extension cord.

Yes.
Lady who practically raised me was one in a million. Parents had to tell me it wasn't ok to chase her car down the driveway, crying, when she left in the afternoons. I was probably 5 then, fast forward 15 years, I was back from school during christmas break and an old lady who could barely walk approached me in a restaurant and said, "baby, are you so and so." Told her yes ma'am, she proceeded to hug me and tell me she was moving Texas the next day- couldn't believe it. Tears ensued.
The big man has a great sense of humor

The same goes for out here in California. Older Black folks and their families will take you in like you're their own.
35 years ago my work partner who is Black took me home to meet his parents. They instantly took me in as if I had been born into their family. In short time this included his extended family, cousins, aunties and uncles.
When I got married, they included my wife and when we had children, them too and now my grandchildren. Come to think of it though, his family has its roots in Texas and Mississippi. Maybe it is a Southern thing.

Black women are the mothers of the earth.
