[quote=Anonymous]Just want to chime in here with a word of warning. I do not like my mother now, but have wonderful memories of a loving, nurturing mother when I was a little girl. The problem was that she was actually very controlling and asocial, and as I grew up, she tried to shut me out of the world - she has a chronic disease, and used it to guilt me into never going out, never contacting the friends I tried to make, never going anywhere without her. At 19, I was completely dependent on my parents for everything, with social anxiety to boot. But I did not notice that when I was little, since all I needed then was love and care. Our children need different things from us as they grow. It's strange that as parents we need to teach those we love the most to not need us anymore and leave us eventually.[/quote]
