Maybe what she is trying to say is that you are only a biological mother to your child but did not behave or have the heart of a MOM (although both the terms to me are similar). I'm not saying you are. Just trying to figure out what she meant when she said that to you.

Yeah I asked her and she couldn't explain it. But she gave me and my sisters up when we were little, she just got my sister back 2 years ago. But now my sister lives with me cause they fight

opps I wasnt done. But I mean she has always boasted about how good of a mother I am. And how strong I am for raising 3 boys. So I don't think she was trying to put me down. Maybe the better question would be. Is there a difference between being a mom and mother? Cause I didn't think there was. She has always tired to be our best friend instead of our mother.

haha that sound like an excuse to act the way she acts and to why you don't understand her... my mom does the same to me now, she keeps on saying "you can't understand me because you are not a mother" i wonder if she'll say "you can't understand me because your kids are not grown up yet" when i will get kids... She uses this as an explanation to why she is trying to control my life even though i already live on my own and doing a good job at it...
i say just ignore it, she is trying to justify the lack of understanding between the two of you and she'll find something no matter what you do... I think almost all mothers are like that...
