Transfer apps from one Apple ID to another

I received an iPad (3rd Gen) for my 13th Birthday. Eager to get started, I used my mother's Apple ID as I thought I was still too young (13 is the youngest you can be to have an Apple ID). I have now created an Apple ID of my own and want to know if I can transfer the Apps bought on it to my new ID. I know that I can transfer songs by putting them on a disc, but am unsure if I can transfer the apps I've bought.

iPad, iOS 5.1.1

It is easy. Sign it with your Mom account, then go to sign again you find the option view account. Click in and edit your Mom email to your personal email, then Save. Automatically it will create another Apple ID as your email ID, leaving your Mom ID as is. Now sign in with your account and you will find your downloads their.

Actually I beleive you are mistaken. that process will only change the existing AppleID, not create a new one.
