Mother/Daughter issues?

I know exactly how you feel. I do not have a daughter just a grown adult son with his own family.

His wife ruled the whole day. This meant he spent it with his in-laws and extended in-laws. My d-i-l wanted his help with the kids all day. That is what she wanted.

Guess what, that meant no visit to his own mom. It was really hard come Monday morning and everyone asks how your mother's was and you can only answer you didn't have one.

What ever other answers you get, I feel your pain! I know how much it hurts.

Everyone needs love.

sorry you had expectations on mother's day... i have two sons, and i don't have expectations about anything. i feel that, if they want to remember me they will, if not, well, ok... i can't change others.. and have to accept them at face value.

one thing i've noticed about many kids these days -- they think it's ok to be late for everything.. i dont know why. All kids are NOT like this, but many are, yes.

your daughter did bring you something, and i do feel it was rather odd of you to ignore it because she didn't present it to you... obviously it was a mother's day gift.

rationalizing your feelings and telling your daughter over and over again "all i wanted was a phone call" isn't making things better... like i always say, having expectations of others is a set up for a BIG let down.

Your daughter loves you... she's just not punctual for whatever reason...

A mother needs love? Are you a child? No your child needs love. Get over your pride and love your daughter, take the gift, say thank you and stop being melodramatic. Who's the parent anyways?

I feel for you. My daughter does not do that to me but my sisters daughter treats her like crap. I want to ring her neck.

Suggestion

Take your daughter out to a restaurant of her choice, have fun and make the day all about her, when she is feeling special, ask her what she needs from you. This may help her open up to you because there is something going on in her mind about you. The only way to find out is to ask her but in a positive setting only. Try that.

Your daughter isn't that expressive about how she loves you. But I know she does. She is mad because maybe she thought that you didn't appreciate her gift for you. .You should give her your understanding. But I also understand how you feel. Me and my mom didn't get along very well before, but now we're alright. I am not afraid to show my affection for my mom. ^_^

ok right that's the subject with you and your mom. you ladies get in arguments a lot that like maximum folk at times you get ill of listening to the different persons voice at times. Your youthful and your a woman so which you have a severe pitch voice of course so because it is only her pointing that out yet asserting its stressful. no longer something to be concerned approximately. once you tell her to no longer eat she snaps at you as a results of fact she already knows she is fat. She walks around exterior and knows people look into her and thinks she is fat so in her recommendations she knows she is fat and to take heed to you assert it particularly is almost a collection off reason she would be ready to no longer say something returned to that she knows she is fat and he or she knows you're appropriate. So the only element to do is to get upset and yell.

I know you may have hurt feelings about your daughter not doing the "daughter-ly" thing for you on Mother's Day, but remember...... you are her mother EVERYDAY and from one mother to another, you get what you give. Apparently your daughter took this opportunity to try to point out her feelings towards you on the one day she knew you would pay attention! Try to see things from her point of view because if my child did this to me..... trust me, I would know why. Sometimes it's not what you did... it's what you don't do. Try to forget how YOU feel and remember when you have children that THEIR feeling should ALWAYS out-weigh you own.

She's acting like a brat! Ignore her until she changes her attitude or opens up about what is bothering her. You shouldn't tolerate disrespect. Happy Belated Mothers Day to YOU and ALL mothers out there! My mom died 15 years ago...I would give anything to have a chance to wish her a happy day and give her a gift!

i trust that u are a seemingly wise female as in my eyes most are, did u realize that your answer is in your own question > look back upon what you u asked, But look again and you mention all that he is to you and wha tshe does in life, this is one way for todays youth to show love with out really having to say thse words that make them so unconfortable, For gods words tell us that it is actions that he watches, tha tshows we are his and tha twe love him, not merely just words, yes there are time Iregret nt sying things to my own mom back in the day, but , as you stated, she takes care of herself, what other child really cares to do that and not be a burden to the parent, she takes care of saying those words of I love you by her actions, even when we do not see them, they are there, right in front of us , just listen and tell her that all is forgiven before something happens to either one of you, Rais uop a child in the way they should go and they will not soon depart from it, do not take this to mean that they will not stray from what is taught, but trust on those words they will return to what you taught them as a child.. ON FATHERS DAY,DO U OFTEN SAY TO GOD HAVE A GREAT FATHERS DAY ON THAT TOO ?? THINK UPON THIS THOUGHT...OK ? LET ME KNOW HOW THINGS TURN OUT OK ?

To me it sounds like you daughter has done something she doesnt want you to find out about so she is distancing herself from you. Ask her if there is soemthing she needs to talk about and be very accepting no matter what it is.
