Oh... And I am an Adult and Had Left Home but Returned because of Health Issues... But Now I am Fine...
I really dont believe all this blood binding stuff. I have the greatest relationship with my mum possible most probably. Were great friends. And my brother too...but thats because we respect eachother both as adult friends, who are free and independent, none of this binding mother-daughter stuff. Love extends beyond the family and those who matter are those who are friends, i recon. My mums one of my best friends Good luck mudpuddle. Puppies chew too much stuff
No....Just stating an opinion...if im worng ...sorry....Im a mom..all I know is how I feel with my kids.
Theres been an entire ocean between me and my mum too, were still good friends. They grow up, become adults, it happens. I was only stating my opinion too, i didnt mean to sound like i was on the offensive. Just making conversation really. I understand where youre coming from
I only wish my mom was halfway as attached to me as you are to your kids, erzebet. It bums me out more and more everyday as I move stuff from my house to Daniel's and see no real emotion at all from her. My dad, of course, is going through that stage of accepting his little girl is growing up, so he's reacting as I expected (overprotective, lecturing about budgeting, so on and so forth), but my mom has more or less moved onto babying my brother and as far as I go...well, I'm not even sure what's there.
