I guess the mother-daughter relationship is different than the mother-son relationship.
I don't see the mother sacrificing her life to her daughter anymore than to a son.
Son or daughter, both are your children. My mother does for all of her children the same, male or female.
Being a daughter myself, I don't feel that my mother has treated me any differently than she has treated my brother.
Having only sons myself, I can only speak from the daughters point of view.
In most instances, I have always thought it was the son who moved away and the grown daughter stayed close to her mother to nurture her in her golden years. That is usually what I see in my community.

Being a mother means being selfless. All mothers are wonderful loving people. I love my mother very much and we share a very close and friendly relationship. After I got married, I have realized much more about the value of my mother. People say you understand the true value of your mother, when you become a mother yourself.

Well I agree with everyone else that mothers love and sacrifice the same for their daughters and sons .. I do believe however that once your kids grow up son's tend to go off with their wife/girlfriends family where as a daughter tends to stay very close to her mother and her side of the family. I have this saying which I believe is very true.. your son is your son until he finds a wife but your daughter is your daughter for the rest of your life.. I hope that explains what I'm trying to say... everyone is different but so I'm sure that's not true for everyone that's just something I have noticed over the years.. have a great day :)
