When I was a child, I remember my mother scolding me for the mess in my room, or for anything else ... I clearly remember thinking that when I grew up I didn't want to be like her, I wanted to do different things, I always disagreed with her ... now that I am an adult and I have children, sometimes after scolding my children, I do not listen to my voice but that of her, that of my mother, it is really incredible as I have become her, now I understand her, I give her the reason one hundred percent ... was always right ... the same thing happens to you?

Omg yes, I thought my parents were mean when I was growing up, always trying to spoil my fun but now I see they were only trying to protect me and stop me making stupid mistakes. I am raising my granddaughter now so doing it all again!

@emmapadrino Yes mine are both gone now but I think of them very fondly and remember what it was like when I lived at home with them. Precious times.

It is very beautiful to realize how much our parents loved us, especially because we do it with our own experiences

I thought it was the only thing that happened to him, I'm glad to know it's not like that

As a parent, I never scold my children because I know scolding hurts children's feeling that they cannot forget.

@emmapadrino parents should be strict but shouldn't scold them.

I understand why my parents did certain things...to an extent. There are many things in my own parenting that I do differently but I respect that they did what they thought was best at the time. =)

I did not have a good mother, my foster mother mistreated me too much I would say, but in some things I was right like for example the disaster or getting up early, without her offenses removing all that derogatory, then I was right, I am the mother of 2 sons , so it's a mess to deal with their disasters, but I still love them and give them tender scolding.

@emmapadrino That is exactly what I thought, that God gave me a chance to have a family again, but now it would be that I myself did my family with my children, although sometimes the ghosts are around the fact that if I am doing my mother's role well or not.

I'm sorry, your childhood must have been difficult, now you have the opportunity to give your children all the love that you lack

@YuleimaVzla I think parents have always had doubts about whether we are doing well, it is something very difficult that nobody teaches us, but the behavior of our children, their happiness ... is our answer, if your children laugh, sing, play, want say you're doing well

When you become a mother you than understand your own mother.
