[quote=Anonymous]I have a great relationship with my mom (my father is deceased) and I have fond memories (snipits) of early childhood.  But they are very much snipits. Like being outside our house catching snow, watching a parade at Disneyworld, hiking on a trail, and I know my mom was with me, but they are less so memories of me with my mom.  FWIW, my parents divorced when I was young (but after 5) and I had a very rocky relationship with my mother for a long time post early childhood.  Perhaps not fair to say rocky, but we weren't close.  There just wasn't a bond.  That all changed when I went to college.  Though my mom has had some ups and downs in her own personal and professional life, no matter what, she put me first.  I know there were times when she didn't have money for shampoo or toilet paper, but she always put on a bold front, and she would do little things for me that showed she was thinking about me, despite how tough her circumstances were.  My mom is awesome, but I don't think our relationship has anything to do with the 0-5 years.  [/quote]
