[quote=Anonymous]Good advice PP! Have you tried saying, "mom I know you we're not lucky enough to have a mom to care for you and I'm so sorry about that. But maybe it would be healing for us both (and for progeny to come) if we try to create some of those stereotypical "mother-daughter" experiences. How about if we do (insert activity)? Your role is (insert hoped for nurturing). If you want, I could do some of that for you too. Want me to take you (dress shopping, or whatever things SHE missed out on)? Who blows, maybe you'll have a girl and something will kick in for her on some level (don't expect this however). Are there any really good mother daughter movies that model typical relationships? Invite her over to watch while you take turns rocking/soothing your baby. Good luck![/quote]
