How will is your relationship with your mom? I lost my mom when I was 5, so I never really had no one to share my thoughts with. Sure I had a stepmother, but I wasn't the same. I get angry with people that treat theirs mothers bad, they don't realize you should love your mother at all cost. How do you feel about this? Is you mom someone special in your life? Or do you take your mom for granted? Would like to hear some input. Thanks

As far as I am aware my relationship with my mum is Great. We get on really well and she is coming to visit us in July all the way from New Zealand, so looking forward to seeing here since it's been two years since I last saw her.

Hi rlc456! I am sorry to learn that you lost your mom when you were very young. I believe in my heart that she has always been looking after you even from afar. I lost my mom when I was 27 years old. She was afflicted with cancer. My mom and I share a very beautiful relationship. I was her princess because I am her only daughter; however she shares an equally beautiful relationship with my two younger brothers too. She is a very loving person and a very loving mother. We enjoy shopping together. We enjoy watching home movies together. We just love each others company. We share secrets. I tell her everything. She's my best friend and my mother. I never talked back at her. I am so obedient to her. When she got sick, I was there with her all the time. I fed her, I bathe her, I wash her, I give her medicines, I hold her hand...I was there with y brothers and my father when she took her last breath. And before she closed her eyes she told each one of us, "I love you. Take care of each other" and kiss each one of us good bye. that really hurts and that still makes me cry. As I am typing this, tears are falling because I miss my mom and I still need to feel her love even I am now 42. I guess, I will never stop needing and loving my mom. So, just like you, I feel a little bad when other people treat their mom unkind. Take care and God bless!

I know what your feeling when its come to not having a mother around.. I lost my mom as well and had no one to turn too. I grew up in foster homes year after year wondering if anyone really care about me.. I'm also the same way when others put their moms down because they don't realize how lucky they are to have one.

my grandmother was the one who raised me, my mother couldn't care less about me all the while I was growing up. NOw as an older woman she has changed a lot. She is an excellent grandmother to her children's children but she never was a good mother to me.

they don't realize you should love your mother at all cost. How do you feel about this?
Sorry but i HIGHLY disagree...as much as I understand your pain (my best friends mom was murdered by her stepfather when she was two so I'm familiar wiht the hurt)..its NOT a perfect world and NOT ALL parents are good ppl...My mother and I have a hate hate relationship....We do NOT like each other let alone love each other.. she was and still is abusive, she allowed her (now ex) husband to abuse me and their biological daughter (though I got the worst of it) for a long time and so on...She DOES NOT DESERVE my love at all...So no, I dont have a good relationship wiht my mother, never have and never will and I DON'T agree that one should love their mother (or fahter for that matter) if she is a horrible parent

I am so sorry to hear about your mom. I lost my dad when I was 12 years old. I do speak with my mom a few times per year. We have grown a little distant from each other but we remain on friendly terms. I don't take my mom for granted but she has her life now and I now live my own. It is hard to explain and I do not want to go into detail and hurt anyone's feelings.

I'm really sad to hear that you lost your mom. We love each other for my mom and me, even I work in different city with my mom, we still use our way to love each other. I always call her one time one week and give some warm words to her. I only can go home 3-4 times per year, but I always take many gifts for her. When I arrived at home, she always prepared many delicious foods for me and treated me like a baby. I love my mom very much.

My mum is wonderful she did so much to make sure we had a good childhood with everything we needed and she loved us totally.
I can though understand why some people dont want to know their mums some mums arent as wonderful as mine and sometimes its easier to break all ties with them rather than let them keep on hurting you.

Since I have had my own children my mother and I have become alot closer. The hard times I have with my kids make me appreciate all that my mom did for me. Espically because I was adopted.
Since my dad has passed it has made me try alot harder to spend time with my mom too.
