Country music star Taylor Swift has given up writing about her bitter break-ups - to pen a song for her mother.The 19-year-old was recently ditched by Jonas' Brothers singer, Joe, for an actress cast in his band's music video.And though she's insisted writing about her relationships is the best way to move on, Swift took a break from her heartache to pen a song for her mother with new track The Best Day.She tells country music website TheBoot.com, "The coolest thing about my mom is she's always been so real with me, and she's been honest with me no matter what. Even when I was pre-teen, that's when I needed her the most. That's usually when people are (in the) too-cool-for-their-parents stage."Well, I was really not cool enough for anyone but my parents in that phase. I had no friends. My mom was the one person that I could turn to and who never, ever hurt me."
