I worked darn hard right through my teens and early adult hood to get along with mymother.. I believed that if I could just love her enough she might love me..
it didnt work out... I havent spoken to her in 13 years now.. life is better without her.

When I was a teenager it was an uphill battle with me and my mom. I was smart and very independent and she mostly left me to my own devices. However, there were areas where I wish she had taken more of an active role in preparing me for adulthood. It would've been nice to have her tell me more about personal finances and credit, the value of my virginity and preparing for college. Instead, she spent so much time yelling about whether or not the house was clean and worrying about my boyfriend at the time that we ended up fighting over stupid stuff. However, now that I'm an adult (36 y.o.) I realize that she could only raise me with the parenting skills she had available to her at the time. She was 18 when she had me so she still had her own growing up to do. So today we are great friends. I tell her almost everything. We talk on the phone several times a week. I respect everything that she went through to raise two daughters on her own. Give it time, be open and honest with your mom about the things you are feeling and dealing with and you two will grow to not only love each other but respect one another. All the best to you.

when i was growing up i didnt. i was just a terror to her. i would cause fights, arguements etc. i moved out of home when i was just 18, later i can back a year later after the relationship i had with my bf ended and i tried my best not to be a terror as we had just started talking to each other with out any nasty or rude comments coming out about each other. i think the longest we didnt have a arguemnt was for 3 months. i had alot of work to do to rebuild my mums trust with me. and i mean YEARS!!!
i moved out again when i turned 21 and i have found that the relationship now that me and my mother have now has been alot better now! i figured out we clash so much that we couldnt live together, so i moved out. so hope fullly one day i can say i get along great with my mum.
'meanding a brigde that as been broken for so long, takes patience and alot of hard work, but with both parties helping to work to the same cause, it will be fixed.'

Wow, my mum and I were always having a row when I was younger, but my mum forgot them quickly. sometimes mum would be niggly at me and I'd just ignore her. I knew she loved me and only wanted the best for me because she had experienced life and wanted to guide me.
Mums are a girls best friend when you grow up. Well....some mums - Laugh
