I had a close relationship with my mother.  We talked every single day.  Sure when I was a teenager she annoyed me and we fought.  But that didn't mean anything.  Once I got out of adolencense, I appreciated her.  Out of all my family members who have died, I miss her the most.

I am in the same boat as you Taramar.  i do not get along with my mother very well, and I had a very rough and lonely upbringing.  To this day we rarely talk and do not get along at all.  \n   Even though all this, I still get her gifts for days like Mother's Day and other special days because she is my mom, and despite all the bad feelings I have for her, a part of me loves her.\n   She is not really a bad person, she was just a bad mother, and had issues that she never bothered to deal with.  I understand not being able to forgive, because i feel very much the same way.  Be the bigger person, and get her something.  Spend a few minutes with her if you can, and show her that you are not like her.  \n   Maybe, one day things will change, I know it seems unlikely as I feel that way too, but you never know.\nPeace and Love

You know, when I was little, I was my daddy's girl...no one could tell me anything, that man was my sunshine.  But as I grew older, I became closer with my moms.  There really isn't an answer to that question...it's been that way since forever...tho, me being a single mother, my daughter is closer to me than her father...but can't stand to be without my dad....who the hell knows...let's just appreciate it for what it is.

ok well here a few ?'s you could use, we had to do a similar project, and you think it will be easy but it turns out kinda hard. \n\n1.  What kind of relationship do you have with your daughter?\n2.  What kind of relationship did you have with your mother?\n3.  How are the 2 relationships the same? Different? \n4.  Did you see your mother as a role model? Why?\n5.  Do you think your daughter sees you as a role model?\n6.  How does your parenting style differ from your mother's? \n7.  What has changed in mother/daughter relationships today from when you were a child?\n8.  If there is one thing you want to teach your daughter about parenting, what is it? Why?\n9.  If you had to start all over with your daughter again, is there anything you would change? \n10. Who do you think influenced your relationship with your daughter? society or your own relationship?\n\nAnyways those are just some ideas i used. Good luck and God bless. Hope everyone helps you!

Yes and I still do even though she is gone because my mom never showed me how she loved me. She was always yelling at me and only love my brothers. I used to grow up and seeing other Asian women hug  their daughters, so I didn't know why my mom didn't want me.

My mom led a double life.  My dad suspected, but couldn't prove it.  She encouraged him to take his anger out on me, and he did because it was easier than to actually deal with her.\n\nAll my life, she told me that Dad's rages were my fault and that if I were better, he wouldn't hurt any of us.  She let me feel guilty for the times when he would lose it with her.  She stood by when he would lose it with me, and then later tell me what I should have done better so that I could have prevented it.\n\nShe's told me all my life that I don't love her enough.  That I don't try hard enough, but all my life she's had that secret.   How close could she let me get?\n\nShe asked me to come home with her and my dad one day.  On the car ride to their house, she confessed her double life.  She should have told Dad first.  It was then that it clicked with me that I had always been sort of a human shield.\n\nEven after she admitted her lifestyle, and that she had set me and my dad against each other all those years, she judged me for how I handled her confession.  My forgiveness wasn't good enough.  She thought I should immediately comfort and reassure her.\n\nI have forgiven her.  I doubt that I've done it to suit her, exactly.  She wants me to go back to feeling responsible for her happiness, and I'm not going back there.  Ever.\n\nBut I do want what's best for her.  I pray for her wellbeing.  I have tried to help her work things out with my dad.  I begged them to get counseling.\n\nI know I have forgiven her because I don't want her to make the past up to me.  I don't feel like she owes me anything.  When good things happen for her, I'm happy for her.\n\nI've also accepted that we're never going to have a close relationship because for whatever reason, she can't do that without requiring me to take responsibility for her actions.  I've accepted that that's where she is right now.  I hope that if she changes in the future, we can have a better relationship, but for now I can be respectful even when she's petty.  I can keep myself from sinking to her level in a disagreement.\n\nI know I still love her, even though she's hurt me deeply.  \n\nI highly recommend "Boundaries Face to Face" by Dr. John Townsend and Dr. Henry Cloud if you're struggling with forgiveness.  There's a difference between forgiveness and trust or reconciliation, and they go into that in depth.  Unfortunately, some people let the guilt of their offenses cause them to turn outward instead of inward and they judge those they hurt rather than taking responsibility.  Their focus is on you behaving differently toward them, rather than on them needing to change hurtful patterns of behavior and showing "fruit worthy of repentance."  Don't let someone bully you into believing that you must meet their standards of forgiveness in order to have really forgiven.\n\nForgiveness can be so difficult, but it's possible.  And it's necessary for you to be free from the hurt.  Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself.  It unties you from the trauma.

You and your Mom don't get along? Is that something you want. Decide whether you want to keep her in your life and if so, tell her how you feel...that a relationship with her is important to you, etc.

My mom most definitley. She raised me and my brother on her own. My dad died in a car accident when I was 5 months old so it was rough on her to be left with 2 kids. But she made sure we had all we needed and most of what we wanted.

I love my mother, I used to never get along with her, Till I attempted suicide and had a near death experiences and realized she's helped me through everything and she's the only one I can really trust. Plus I wouldn't be alive without her. My moms my hero.

If you love your mother you would tell her plain and simple.  She gave birth to you and brought you into this world at least give her respect and the curtesy of knowing the truth!

My Mom she has always been there to be protective, supportive, compassionate, loving and kind.  Even though I have an ongoing phone relationship with My Dad now, He was very abusive while I was growing up.  He refused to come to My High School Graduation, Wedding, doesn't know My Children,  and last but NOT least didn't attend His own Son's Funeral.  Guess I should have just said Mom.

My mother.  She passed away 20 years ago, and I miss her.  I was too young and stupid to fully appreciate her before she died, and I'm sorry.  I wish I could tell her that I'm so glad she was my mother.  I wish she could sit around the table with my kids, and grand-kids and see that we're alright.

I would like to talk about my best friend-my mom. She is a beautiful person in and out. my took care of me from birth up until now. She has taught the ways of life. To respect myself and others. She told me how important education is for my future. To watch out for those boys or girls who can get me in trouble. My mom would kiss my boo-boos when I was\nsick, when I hurt or cry. My mom would hug me when I am happy or then I did something great.( and whatever you feel from your heart.
