Do you really love your mother?

I know that it's an almost expected thing to do. Love your mom. She's the one that brought you into the world right. But, is it possible to not love someone who did such a great thing for you, if that person didn't love you? Let me know what you think.

Just because someone brought you into the world dose not mean that they did a great thing for you when they don't love you. No I don't love my mother. Nor do I like her. She gave birth to me but that was all. Not all mothers love their kids. When I remember how my mother treated her kids It is not possible to love her as a parent. I can only ask God to love her for me because I can't.

Not all moms do a good job. And, it's sad, because they take their personal problems out on the kids. And, those are the real victoms.
You can't pick your family, but you can pick your friends. Sometimes I wish it were the other way around. At least with friends, you can leave and everything just goes on like normal.
With family it's different. Somehow even if they were the most rotten people in the world, you're always connected.

I love my mother very dearly and now I miss her so much.Love your mom the best way that you can give to her for things happen unexpectedly.You just feel that your mom doesnt love you because she doesnt show it or say that she loves you the way you want to but I know within her hearts she loves you much.Give and never expect in return..Love and you will be love.

I do love my Mother and I appreciate the things she has done whe I was little. As of right now though we are not speakig because of things from the last few weeks and things that have took place in the last 10+ yrs and I will explain one day maybe but let's just say that she would rather believe her son (my brother) that has done some things to me and has claimed he has "changed" when really we all know he hasn't and then he ends up doing something again (just not to me, but worse to someone else) and she points the finger at me and tells me that I am in the wrong. NOT!

Moms are people too. And, just human. Most choose to believe what they want, especially when it comes to their favorite children. My oldest brother was the favorite and in her eyes, he could do no wrong.
That made things tough for all of us.
Sometimes that meant she wasn't there for us emotionally when we needed it most.
The worst sin a mother can commit (in my opinion) is to completely shut her heart off to one of her children when they are in need. If your mom chooses to be blind to the situation, and the truth, then that is her loss. Not yours.

i think that there are situations where it is impossible to love your mother but i think deep down everyone strives for that unconditional love that only a mother can provide for you but as for me i have a great mother and i love her with all my heart she has always been there for me even when i made it so hard to be.
