Do you really Have to love your mother?

Perhaps the lack of love covers the problems no one talks about. Communication is key to any relationship. Stop thinking only of yourself. Get close to mom on mother's day. Give her the unconditional love and respect she deserves. Give her your greatest giftYOURSELF! Who knows. It might just be the icebreaker that will let the real problem surface and healing to begin.

not everyone is lucky enough to have a mom worthy of being loved in that way. I have to say that my mother and I are very close. However I know of moms, my sister in fact who do not deserve to be called mom. They treat their children like crap, abuse them and then expect to be loved to get phone calls ards etc on Mothers day. If you did not have that relationship with your mom then there is nothing to be ashamed of. For those out there that do not have that relationship or had a mom that well was crap I am sorry you had to go through this, you use tomorrow to celebrate the person in your life who was more of the mom figure to you and know that you are loved.

You reminded me of my mother's memorial and listening to people talk about how great she was. I wanted so much to jump up and tell them how clueless they were. I didn't but I really wanted to. Some mothers just are not lovable and there's no fault on the child.

i don't like my mother to say the least. but i still love my mom no matter how many times we had fights before. anyways, i appreciate that you don't blame us for not having a close relationship with our moms or not liking our own mothers. i do sometimes wish that my mom will be more understanding or more like a friend than a mother cause i think that we never had good relationship cause we had so much differences and we don't have a give and take relationship.

For me it's a hypocricy to say a child never love her mom or the mother never love her children. The love is there maybe they don't just accept they love each other. Especially the mother, I believe no mother will say I don't love my child. They may misunderstand, get disappointed over their children or they maybe mad but still the love is there. They may hide their feelings but still even a little concern they have for their children, they may not express it but deep inside they can feel it. Love is in the heart. At the end after all those misunderstandings it's being expressed thru smiles, hugs and kisses. Just look at your mom's eyes and you'll see the love. No other love can be greater than mother's love.

Ofcourse I love my mother so much, i will not be here, i cant live , i will not know what is the real life if she doesnt give birth to me. Its up to you if how you love and care your mom, sometimes it happened that someone hates her mother because of real reason and we cant avoid that feeling cause we have different attitudes as a human being. So lets respect their right for their mother but in my own point of view we should care,love,respect and understand her forever.

I love my mother, and I love my father, and I love my sister, and the rest of my family, but there is no shortage of people out there who have problems with their "loved ones." People and their relatives have very complex relationships, some very loving, others not so much. Mothers, and other people are just humans like everyone else, and are owed no special privilages just because of their titles. One has to earn that love, I think, by being loving in return.

Good advice..some mothers don't deserve the love of their kids.....sometimes I don't understand relationships because I like you had a good one with my mom...she was the best! I feel for those who miss out on their mothers love...truly.....hopefully they can find fullfillment in other relationships.

of course you have to because it is written in God's commandment. personally, i haven't really seen my father in person but despite that, i have to love him because without him i wouldn't be the person that i am today.

I did not have a close relationship with my mom at all growing up nor after. Still, I would not go as far as to say that I didn't love her....there was "something" there. Off and on, I tried to please her...make peace with her. I think she did the same with me as well. Towards the end of her life, she needed constant care and I was at her place every day tending to all of her needs. Before her mind went maybe because of heavy meds she was on, we had some good and frank talks. Talks that I wish we could have had years ago but were impossible. I was grateful for that time with her before she passed. I came to understand her better and understand why things were as they were. I still don't agree with much of how she handled things while I was growing up but I do understand why she felt the need to be the way she was. I know she loved me.

Do you really have to love ur mother? To answer ur question the answer is no, you don't have to really love ur mother but I would say that you should at least respect her. Since she is the woman who gave you birth and you wouldn't be here in the world if it wasn't for ur mother, you should show her the utmost respect and kindness. When I was growing up I didn't always feel strong feelings of love for my mother but I always had the respect for her and now that I'm an adult and I look back and realize that my mom was doing all that she knew how to do to try to make sure that I turned out okay. It's only now that I can really and truly appreciate her for all that she was trying to do to raise me in the correct manner. Lord knows it wasn't easy but she did her best and that is why I think that she should at least be respected if not loved and honored!

I think every people should love their own mother even she dont have good relationship with you.For me,it is because mother had born us and without her,we cannot see this beautiful world.I feel sympathy for those who dont love their own mother,how bad she is,she is still your mother who had born you.

Ya not every mom is good just like not every child is good. I mean how do we decide what makes mother bad. Is being strict bad, or is the mom who gives complete freedom bad. Or the mother who ignores her children bad. Or is it the mother who is obsessed about what the kids are doing, justifying it by saying it is for their safety. Or is the mother who tries to give all her children the best in what she can afford. Or is the mother bad when the mother does not do something in the way the child wants. I mean it is so easy for us to say that our mothers are bad. Do we ever think from their point of views. And I am not talking of abusive parents here.

i never close to my mom sence i was young coz of some reason is in aboard when the time im young and now i go abroad to so we did not enjoy and spen more time together its to petty but deep in my heart i trully love my mom and one the i just call her and sasy i love her and she started to cry and tell me she lve me to...huhuhu

As to me, loving my mom is not a duty, it is a natural feeling. My mom has sacrificed a lot for me, and I am doing the same for my child. I still think that most moms love their children. As it is not that easy to labor a baby. It is a test for a woman. Today it's the Mother's Day. And we did have a great time together. We are so exhausted right now:) I love China

i think a mother is so important to a child and if the child has a wonderful and loving mother it makes such a difference in their lives but if a child has a cold, unloving mother it sets the mold for an unhappy, maladjusted person. if a mother does not love their child and show love to them by being affectionate then how can the child love the mother back. it is a sad thing to hear that there are mothers who do not love their children but i know that it is true. i love my son so much i just cannot imagine being any other way. i love children in general so it is just beyond me for a mother not to love even her own children. sad world we live in.

u do not hsve to love your mother i had a friend who said u dont actually love your parents its just respect, u love ur spouse. but i know people who want nothing to do with their mothers usually due to some past issue.

My mother is a very industrious.She loves us.I have a brother and a sister.My mom love everyone of us in the same way.She always with us when we got into difficulties in our life.She teachs us right from wrong.She got us to know what is love and how to love. We love our mom naturally ,never think why to love.

Of course!I love my mother very much!In my eyes,she is the greatest person !That she had raised me and taught me how to behave .She affected my life! Today is Mother's Day .However ,today is the first time I said to her that Happy Mother's Day in the past 20 years!

I think it's unnormal to not love your mother at all.But i know everybody doesn't have a good relationship with their mother.But I think no matter what you should still have respect for her because after all she is your mother.
