[quote=Anonymous]I don't have mother daughter issues really, but my read is that mothers are more intertwined with daughters lives than sons. With that comes good and bad -- some of the bad is feeling SO close and SO much like she's an extension if you that you control her, criticize her the way you'd criticize your own self without thinking - she's a separate person who can/will get offended. Moms back off a lot more with grown sons - generally - bc they realize he's not as intertwined and could walk away if he gets too offended and then you see him once a yr. So with sons you get moms who stand back and beam with pride; sometimes those same moms w daughters will be like - well that's a nice accomplishment but don't you need to spend more time with the kids and btw your hair is a mess.[/quote]
