Default Is it possible to charge a 2010 Macbook Pro 13" for too long?

I plug in my laptop before I go to bed and let it charge all night, and then use it throughout the day wireless and then plug it back in again at night and charge it while I am asleep.

My mom told me that it could be bad for laptops to continue to charge after it is done charging and that right when it gets to 100% battery life, then I should unplug it and leaving it plugged in after that would be bad for the battery, well anyway now I'm kind of worried... I'm 95% sure that that that is not true, but just in case, I wanted to make sure.

Thanks in advance

And please no windows/pc fanboys attacking me on here... please please... I like Macintosh, oh well get over it, it's a personal opinion thing. I did not insult PCs in this question at all, and I have nothing against PCs, I actually like Windows 7 and Vista, and own one but I prefer my mac. Don't fuck with me.

Yup, it's possible. Did it to mine. Over charged it and it killed the battery life. My battery dies within 3-4 hours.
