Why does my mother feel like she has to question everything you do or say? Not just simple questions but questions you know she is asking that she knows will bug you? Is it in our mother's nature to ask these questions just to see how far they can go? And what about the guilt trips?? I swear nobody is better at guilt trips than a mother. Lucky for me my mom has got a lot better over the years, either that or I just know what she is trying to do and I just don't let it get to me anymore. I really hope if and when I have kids, that I am not like my mother in that way. I know I am a lot like her in certain ways, but I know I do NOT want to guilt trip my kids into anything. I want my kids to make their own choices and learn from their own mistakes.
Anybody have the same feeling?
Looking at the bright side of reality.
I'm reading an awesome book right now, that gives all of the answers to your questions, You're Wearing That?
ReplyDeleteAll I know from reading this book, though, is that I'm super confused about dynamics between mothers and daughters. And, I'm really glad I'm a guy.
Excellent questions in your post! Your kids will be awesome!
