I am totally stumped by the idea of Godmother. From what I understand, this person is designated to take care of a child(ren) in case of the untimely death of both parents.

If you have a Godmother, who is that person? A friend of your parents? What is your definition of Godmother?

Have you ever had the experience of having to release that person from their duty? For instance, my daughter’s father and I decided upon one of my friends as Godmother of our child. This person has been MIA (physically and mentally) for months and I am thinking maybe we didn’t make the best choice. What would you do in this case?
