For those who have been both mother and daughter, which relationship did you find more rewarding..............

Question

....and which would you prefer and why? The answer to these two questions I believe is not necessarily the same

Answer 1

i say being a mother is more rewarding. when i was growing up, my mom was too involved with my step-dads' doings.. so i felt like i wasnt wanted, confused, misled, taken for granted. now that im a mom myself; i know what i didnt want growing up so i'll try not to have what happened to me, happen to him (my son).
which would i prefer? i liked being the child, honestly. i knew what was right & wrong with what was being done & wanted it to change. i just dont want to chance being the wrong one with anything having to do with my son. i guess what im trying to say is that i dont want history to repeat itself. i dont want to follow into my mothers footsteps. :(

Answer 2

Being a mother is most rewarding. As a daughter, I never felt as if it was rewarding, but blessed to have such wonderful parents.

Answer 3

I think it's more rewarding being a mother. Your in charge more, you have some control of whats going on and you have these little people who look up to you, and you get to show then new things and they show you new things everyday.

Answer 4

I find being a mother more rewarding because seeing my children happy and healthy is the best thing in the world, i am raising them right, and find being my mothers daughter being joyous because she sees in me what i see in my own children.

Answer 5

The instinct of motherhood is the strongest of all instincts not only in humans but in all species.
It is because of this instinct that continuation of life can be assured and repeated throughout the ages.

Answer 6

being a mother is most rewarding.

Answer 7

They're such different things, I don't think I could really compare them. The experiences are TOTALLY different.
