Meet the mother-daughter duos who work together every day

Some mother-and-daughter relationships are distant while others near suffocating. In the run-up to Mother’s Day, Ailin Quinlan met three mothers and their daughters who manage to work together.

“My mother — she is beautiful, softened at the edges and tempered with a spine of steel. I want to grow old and be like her,” — What author Jodi Picoult once memorably said of her mum

Not every mother and daughter has such an enviably close relationship, and not every mother and daughter could work side by side either. But some do.
