Mother-Daughter Relationships

Mostly, girls start to get problems with their parents, especially their mothers at the age of 25 going if they are still single and living with their families!

You may be right, but don’t you think that moms also may create a horrible life for you if you follow them blindly because “they know what is gud for you”. How doesn't a girl know what is good for herself at this age?!

i guess your mom just want to have someone who would take care of you when she'll be gone...its still for your own good.

i missed my mom...she's the best mom i could ever have...when i was in my teen years i used to not like her for she seems dictating everything, i cant go out with friends...all school & house & chores...

but see i began to appreciate it when i graduated in college...i realize how much she loved me and her being strict is also for my own good...i finished my school with a good grades, job was offered to me a week before my graduation...and have never been dated anybody during my school years & im very happy and glad & proud of that...

i guess mother knows best!

love you mama...will be seeing you in a couple of months... :)

I think a mother daughter relationship depends on how you turn up. I mean if the daughter does not come up to the expecatations of the mother, then the relationship is screwed for sure. Had I gotten married at the right age and given her the grand children which she is dying for, then I am sure the relationship between us would have been terrific since we have a lot in a common as well inspite of the differences between us. For one, we are both amazing cooks and cooking is a common hobby and passion for us. We both are very God fearing and extremely conscientious.. The only bone of content between is my single status, if somehow I could overcome that or rather if I fixed that up, I am sure my mom and I could be the best of buddies..

So the key to a perfect mother daughter relationship is.. Never fail her expectations of you...Do what she wants and be what she wants..

I never had problem with my parents especially to my mom. If she only wants to live with me here in Middle East, I would be more than happy living with her. She never meddle with my life...she always wanted me to be happy in everything I do.

my relationship with my mom has been tremulous from childhood and it was only after I married at 23 and left the land that we have now grown closer..Heck I admit we certainly are a lot alike!this study is certainly true for some but not all. Ideally the older we get the more matured we get and understand where our parents were coming from.

Britexpat. I doubt if I will get married or have a baby and even if I do, it is very unlikely that I will live that long to see her turn 36.. I have missed the boat long back my dear..

i began to understand her more as i got older though. for some reason i also started to appreciate some of her qualities that i overlooked when i was growing up.

I can see where you are coming from but I do not agree.

We all have the potential to 'fall out' with our parents but I doubt it is down to age or gender.

It's called growing up and establishing our own way which may go 'against' what parents like.

In the end we all unite.

I don't think there's a one size fits all. i know some daughter who get on great guns with their mothers - some in fact are too close..
