My mother is not always in the house. She does take care of the needs of the family. Now that i am a family woman I make it toa point that i do take of my family first before others. My mothers wants to serve other people she like not thinking og\f her family. Thats why i am not close with my mother because we are different, we have different views in life. How about you, do you have problems with your mother or you have a good relationship with your mother?

Wow, i envy you. It is very good that we are open to our mother so their will be somebody we can rely on. For good times and for bad times. But mother is still a mother, we cannot change our mother so i will just make use of it. And i will just make it to a point that i will communicate with my own daugther very well.

I get along pretty good with my mother, she lives right across the street. She can be nosy and annoying sometimes which drives my fiance crazy. She too is always concerned about other people and what they think and how she can make them love her more. I don't agree wtih everything that when on in my home as a child. So as a mother myself I try not to make the same mistakes my mother did and try to be a better mother. I think most of us learn from our mothers mistakes. And we have to take and use what we learn and let the hard felings go and be the best mother we can be.

Yes I have a pretty good relationship with my mother. I keep on communicating her cause she's away from us. She never fails to take care of us whenever she's with us. So I can say that we had a pretty good relationship.

My mother and I usually get along well. But lately she have been ranting about my bf not having a job. She usually helps me with paying thebill if I get short on my salary but then she just exploded and told me that she didn't want to help me anymore. And said that I should get help with my bf. But he's jobless and still finishing his college degree. This is really our major fight by far. T_T

no, i dont have good relationship with my mother, although we are civil with each other, we don't see each other as friends and i don't trust her with my secrets also she can't and doesn't understand me. she also thinks that i'm all bad plus the fact that she is always in favor with my elder sister. she always take her side and always thinks that she is always better. as a mother, she never encouraged me that i can do and achieve things when i put my heart on it. I don't hate her, i simply respect the ways she thinks and feels but i also respect myself and that i don't really feel like becoming so close with her because of the things that she's doing with me.
