How can you NOT respect her????

my mother is such a great mother.she loves me and gives me so much!she is my best friend in the world. she teach me be confidence when doing something,she teach me be brave when facing failure,she teach me smile when coming cross setback.she let me know the world is not so perfect,we should facing it without scare! i love my mother forever!

i love my mom too. she is indeed a pillar of strength. whenever i feel sad and weak, and everything seems to fall apart, she is the one who encourages me to have an optimistic attitude and keep moving on. not only this, my mom a certainly much cooler than i am, and i usually avaid my friends from meeting my mom, because i feel intimidated that my mom is a great deal better than i am socially..lol! the question of mothers not being cool is soo absurd. after all, its our mom who has given birth to us, and her being cool or uncool has no relevance at all. hating one's mother is just impossible. i am sure that all your schoolmates who said such a thing must be faking....for no matter what, the love between mother and child is universal, attachment might vary, but love is there for sure!!

that was a cool photo of your son driving. i am soooooo envy for i dont know how to drive and dont even have my own vehicle. well... back to the topic...lol. you sound like you are a good parent. yes we parents (specially me that has a lot of children) must be flexible. we must always make our communications open to what our children has to say because if we dont listen to them they will feel that you like the other kid more than them. thanks for the response

My mother and I do not see eye to eye at all. She likes to inform me if she feels I have gained weight. She once tried on a skirt that was too small for me just to prove she was thinner than me. She nags me constantly and will not leave me alone, even after I say "yes mom, I know." She just doesn't know when to stop. My whole life she has never been there for me. She never wanted to go shopping with me or to the movies, so I felt left out. She babysat during the day so that she would be there when my siblings and I got home from school (which I understand and appreciate) but taking care of kids meant she never talked to me. If I had a personal problem all she would do was tell me that what I was feeling was wrong. She once told me I was a "problem child and no one would want me" if i ran away. She never stood up for me, still doesnt, when my Nan says she's going to laugh at me if I eat anything that's not healthy and she'll laugh at me when I get even more fat than I am now. I have 4 mental disorders (ocd, ptsd, social anxiety and ed nos) and when I say how she sometimes treats me triggers the disorders she tells me I am lying and that she is perfect and I am the screwed up one and nothing she has ever done could result in how screwed up I am. That is how I can resent my mother.

Maybe there are reasonable to say it so, like their mother are irresponsible or nagger and what so. More often siblings misunderstand their mother because they feel that their mother is not easy to talk, use their power of them or always criticize them. As they go along, time would come that they will realize how great their mother is and how strong and independent they are. They will say oh my mother loves me so much for giving their whole life caring and loving us. But i hope those friends of yours realize how important their mother before it's too late. My mom is my bestfriend and my critics.

Well mother is nature gift and she is our teacher in opening the eyes. She is master at her embroidery works, she does latest modern art on the embroidery thats is awesome and really cool.She is my best friend, to share and decide. Thats my best mom and she is unbeatable!I love her so much

When I was in high school I always heard the same thing too. However my mom is/was a cool mom when I was in HS. I feel so blessed that I have such an amazing mother. Your original post sounds a lot like my relationship with my mother. We are VERY close and I would be lost without her. I feel like she should be my roommate for the rest of my life because she is so cool. I wouldn't want to live with anyone else for the rest of my days.
