ME!! I love my mom to death but when it comes to having convos with her or getting advice or anything else for that matter she is not the one i depend on we havent really got along with one another for a really long time sometimes i think we both just tolerate each other for the sake of others like for me its for my kids for her its for her husband and its only gotten worse since she got remarried she is a completely different person i dont even know anymore :(

I think I know exactly how you feel.  I feel attatchment to my mother because she's essentially all the family I have.  However, she was a pretty shit mother.  I have been pretty bitter with her in the past and only about a year ago has our relationship smoothed out.  I don't go to her for advice in raising my own child.  She's a good grandma, great with my son.  I really think being a grandma suits her because there's no real responsibility and when she gets angry I can take over.  I admit at times special occasions like mother's day are trying because there's all these cards expressing really deep feelings and sometimes all those old wounds get reopened lol.  I know it's petty.  But I feel really she has just always set me up for failure and.  I would say that I love her though, mostly because she was all I had for a long time, not because of much of anything she's done.

I love my mother. Because she's my mother and for no other reason than that.

She's better now than when she raised me. She's great to my kids. I simply cannot bond with her remembering my childhood.

My mom is very distant most of the time. She is going through her 4th divorce and I didn't even know thy spilt up till 4 months later. I love her to death but we are not close at all.

I love my mom but man sometimes I just don't like her. I admit I have had issues with her for a long time . The things she did to all us kids was horrible.( nothing physical). But she doesn't know how much issues I've been hiding from her. She act more like a distant friend not a mom.

My stepmom is a whole different story I love her to peices and can talk to her and my dad about anything . She has been there to help me through so much. She's great for when I just need to talk and cry . In my opinion she is my mom

My mom has passed away almost 5 years ago. But I am who I am because of her, I use the same mothering tips of being a mom I am today as she did raising us. She was and always will be the greatest mother ever.

Yea I know what u mean, I love my mom 2 death & we get along really well, I just don't like her some times, nor do I go 2 her for any advice on how 2 raise my ds, I practically raised all my brothers & sister so if i do need any advice i ask my aunt who helped raise me, my mom kind of anoys me some times because 43 & still tries to dress & act like a 23yo but she is a good grandma to my ds
